Writing Question
For this assignment, you will write a 2-3 page paper (double spaced) about past work experiences examining the information you collected with your questionnaire as well as the responses your fellow students discussed in class and how this informal survey responses compare to the statistical data presented in class and the articles you read in the module.
You should write a well-written essay with an introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion. Ideas to help you frame your essay include:
What did you learn about yourself and the person you interviewed about how similar/different your first work experiences were?
How consistent were your questionnaire answers with those obtained by other students in your class and with the statistical data you were presented with in class and the articles you were assigned for this module?
What was the same or different? Do you have a theory as to why?
Did anything surprise you?
Based on you and your interviewees responses – how did your thoughts compare to the debate described by Mortimer whether adolescents should work? What do you think are the most compelling arguments for both sides of the argument and which side did you agree with?
