Final Assessment Topics

Hello! When it comes to selecting a topic, students tend to fall back into the same overused topics they see in the media often. These topics have endless copies of papers already online. This is an opportunity to use your critical thinking skills to consider a fresh perspective through a new lens. Instead of marijuana, euthanasia, death penalty, vaccines or abortion, write about a topic that relates more directly to your career goals or industry. Consider a topic where you have some expertise to share. This way, you can add the paper to your job portfolio.

Always use our library to find scholarly, academic, peer-reviewed research instead of just “googling.” Our devices use cookies and record our preferences, so we tend to see the same one-sided opinions over and over. If you are talking about a study, find the actual study. If you are discussing a law, find the actual law. Beware of websites that just repeat opinions. Here is a list of topics:
