Description
Step 1. Search the Internet for a recently published news article that describes a recent event that occurred in the Russian realm and that you can relate to geography (i.e., physical, cultural, political, economic). Please Note: The event MUST have occurred during the past 30 days; the news article also must have been published during the past 30 days.
Step 2. Summarize (briefly) and analyze the event (approximately three pages), citing appropriate sources in APA format. Include the cited sources in the references, also in APA format. The APA format requirement applies to both ""layout"" and references (both in-text and on the final reference page). In your summary and analysis, include the following:
- Analyzethe short- and long-term geographic importance of the event within the community, region, and nation in which the event occurred.
- Analyzethe geographic importance of the event on one or more countries that are outside this realm.
- Describe what the event reveals about culture, lifestyle, politics, economic conditions, and values (personal, community, or national),etc., of the people in the region or country in which the event occurred.
- The summary should be double-spaced and approximately 3 pages long.
If your instructor has posted a rubric for this assignment, be certain to consult it.
Submissions should demonstrate critical thinking and the ability to pull together information from a variety of sources. A simple restatement of information from the textbook, news article, blog, a general opinion, or only a summary of the news report will earn very few points.
Step 3. Click on the assignment title to submit your work. Attach the MS Word .doc or .docx file; do not copy and paste it into the text box. Per Baker policy, other file formats will not be not accepted.
