Who will benefit from solving this problem?Explain the So What?/Who Cares? In other words, why is this problem pressing and why should an average person care?

Problem/Solution Proposal

1. In around one page of prose,  identify the problem for which you want to provide a solution. Consider some of the bullet points provided on the Problem/Solution Prompt.

Extra consideration will be given for engagement with/reference to sources. Also consider the rhetorical situation:

• Who is your audience?
• Who will benefit from solving this problem?
• Explain the So What?/Who Cares? In other words, why is this problem pressing and why should an average person care?

Also consider your solution:

• What other solutions exist and why will they not be as effective?
• What objections would a person have about your problem and how might you address those objections?
• Is the solution: cost-effective/feasible/reasonable?

2.  Compose a working introduction with a working hypothesis for a solution in around a ½ page.
