Feminist Theories: Gender Inequality in Knowledge
Part 2: PowerPoint Presentation
You will present potential solutions to the problem in a PowerPoint presentation. These solutions can be drawn from nonprofit and community programs that already exist, as well as proposed and existing state and federal programs and policies. The research conducted for Part 1 should inform the solutions presented in Part 2. The purpose of this section is to focus on your plan to solve the problem, starting with a review of what has already been done to solve the problem and then detailing your own plan.
Your PowerPoint presentation should include 15 to 20 slides, using the following rough breakdown:
Slides 1 to 5: Introduce your social problem and summarize any important background information. Provide a brief overview of what has already been done/attempted to solve this problem.
Slides 5 to 7: Highlight your thesis, which in this case is your overall plan to solve this social problem impacting families. Your plan should have a few key parts (two or three), like a public education effort and/or an expansion of public policies, just to name two examples.
Next 5 to 7 Slides: Outline the parts of your plan to solve the problem. Use examples of nonprofit, community, and government programs that already exist. You may suggest to broaden, expand, or replicate them to address unmet needs. All specific information should be hyperlinked or cited using footnotes on each slide.
Final 2 to 3 Slides: What roadblocks and obstacles do you anticipate getting in the way of your plan being put into effect? Make some predictions about your social problem and solution in terms of what is likely to happen in the future based on what you learned from this course and from your research.
