After working through the assigned resources in this module, create a problem catalog to begin exploring problems, problem situations, and the systems in which they appear.
Consider problems at various levels:
Worldwide, cross-national, and cross-cultural problems Nationwide problems, affecting all or most Americans
Problems specific to an economy, an environment, an industry, a company, or an organization
Problems specific to a population segment such as children, seniors, employed or unemployed, disabled, athletes, executives, engineers, women, and so on.
Note: Be sure to include at least two problems that are related to your own workplace, a former workplace, or a current or former organization that you are affiliated with (church, local government, nonprofit agency you volunteer for, etc.)
Consider using resources such as periodicals, newspapers, magazines, blogs, news websites, discipline-specific journals, conference presentations, and other sources found on the web or in the Shapiro Library. As always in your research, be aware of source credibility and possible bias (your own and that of your source).
