The lessons were broken down into four different sections: Human, Food, Personal, and Environmental Security.

——
Paper should be an analytical essay. Do not use a cover page. Instead, create a header and footer with your name.
Your submission should be four pages (no more, no less) and look like this:
Introduction: Introduce your topic & include a thesis. To help you set up your analytical essay include three reasons why you agree or disagree with the midterm questions. By doing so, you will set up the body of your paper. The introduction should be 1/2 page.
The Body: The body will focus on your three reasons that you either agree or disagree with the midterm question. Each reason should take up about 1 page and include support from the readings and lessons.
Conclusion: The conclusion will wrap up your paper, and re-state your three reasons. This should be about ½ page.
Reference List: Include a reference list in Turabian format. This list will not count towards the four pages.
Use Turabian in-text citation with a reference list. Do not include footnotes.
