You will then write one page on the article, relating the article to concepts from the class. Here is a brief list of questions you MAY wish to address in the one-pager. You are NOT required to address each of these questions in your one-pager – they are only offered as ideas for issues you may want to include. • What is the primary level of government that is responsible for this issue? • What other levels of government are involved, and what, if any, are their roles? (This will address federalism.) • What budget-related issues are involved – how much does it cost, will this action cut or increase funding for the program/issue, and other such budget-related questions? • Has legislation been proposed to address this issue? If so, at what level of government – federal, state, local? • What is your position on this issue? (This will address political ideologies.) • What do you believe influenced you – parents, peers, educators, or other sources – in coming to this position on the issue? (This will address political socialization.) • What interest groups, if any, are involved in addressing this issue? Which interest groups are in support of your position, and which interest groups are opposed? (This will address interest groups.) • What are some of the arguments against your position and how would you respond to those arguments?
