CSL: Group X Homework Assignment 2 (DUE any time before (9:00pm Thursday)

1.     Make a list of pros and cons for each idea. Remember to openly consider ways that people conduct drives for material items. You are not making a decision yet, you are evaluating the ideas by listing the positive and negative issues around each of the eight project ideas generated by the class below:

Here's the list your class came up with:

1.     Focus Problem: Food & Water Access

2.     Collect non-perishable food/ food drive

3.     Raise money for water filters

4.     Raise money for a well

5.     Send water tablets (bleach or iodine)

6.     Do a food and water drive

7.     Raise money for Puerto Rican public utilities and/or infrastructure repairs (roads)

8.     Raise awareness/inform people that it’s not fixed yet

 2. Then, do some web research to further inform yourself about these ideas. 

Thinking prompts:

Has or is anyone else helping in these ways? 

How did they do it? 

Are there different ways to get to the same result? 

Can you imagine some creative "work-arounds"?  

How did the research change your thinking or add to what you already knew about an idea? 

Write down ideas you think of for how your group might approach the project and provide the links for two sources you visited while doing this research.
