I'm writing a paper and need a little guidance.  The paper must be about a contemporary social issue in Cuba.  Trying to figure out what I should write about.  Any guidance would be helpful.

The embargo could hardly be called a new event since it was put in place by John Kennedy. Why don't you do one based on the soon to take place change of power in Cuba. What will happen when Fidel dies? Or about how even with the increases in tourism to Cuba in recent years, the everyday person is still denied access to visiters and the illeagality of cuban ownership of any kind of foreign currency.

If you want to get people's attention and/or probably make some of them mad, you should do a speech on the "wedge" issues (as Lou Dobbs calls them) between Republicans and Democrats, environmental issues, lowering the drinking age, abortion, foreign policy, drugs legal/illegal. Another thing is to find an issue that is at least semi-interesting within your local/state community, like something in the news perhaps, or an on going problem, or why to outlaw something, or make something into a law.

The style is really not very different than the essays you write for English class. Start with your thesis statement...."Theodore Roosevelt influenced America as a writer, soldier, civic leader, and as a great president." \n\nEach body paragraph will start with a topic sentence and focus on one aspect of what made him influential.  Stay focused, build each paragraph with facts, examples, and details that support the topic sentence.

Smoking- What's cool about Death???\n\nThat is an attention getter and will cause the reader to continue reading your paper. It's definetly not your typical title for a school paper. LOL

A THOMAS JEFFERSON EDUCATION TEACHING A GENERATION OF LEADERS FOR THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY by Oliver Van DeMille.  It is mainly on the differences in choices of education that is available to parents for their children--mainly homeschooling.  It does have a lot on how public and private schools came about and why.  I think it may have some references for your paper.  I hope so anyways.

Ask yourself what do you and your readers want to learn from your paper and go from there...brainstorm...draft an outline... your topics are broad so you have to narrow them down...for example, diabetes..talk about how diabetes affect African American women v.s. Caucasian women etc. or regionally

My choice would be the present immigration disaster.  There are any number of places to find information.. I have a couple of articles myself that I have posted to my blog.  It is a subject that NEEDS attention.  Good luck.

I recently gave this as an assignment to my class.  Humorous or embarrasing personal events are always a good choice.  You will have to include plenty of detail starting with the time you woke up till the event, but you can make it up if you can't remember.  Details are key! Don't leave anything out and add a lot of adjectives and adverbs to your story.

I can't get into detail, but I'm in college and I just turned in my research paper, which is an argument essay. You need to do some research on your topic and acknowledge in a paragraph or page the opposing viewpoints and argue against them. I know it sucks, but get into much more depth. Don't just list the good points. Good luck and I hope that you get an A!

depends on what your purpose is for your paper. Plate technoics is such a broad topic, you need to be more specific if you want help. I cant answer this again so good luck. Email me if you want more information

Be unique and let your writing speak for itself. Write a paper giving your opinion on a controversial matter or a hot topic in your school or community. Then either hang it up or pass it out at your school - campaigning with something like "Vote for me - School Journalist" or something similar to that.  Good Luck.

Good luck trying to find 3 things.  Just write "Nothing" for your paper.

I'm getting deja-vu. Didn't you ask this question already ? I remember answering it also. Many people feel bad for Cubans because they are suffering under Castro's tyranny. Not to say that Mexicans aren't suffering as well. Many of the Cubans that come here already have family members here to help them. The main thing is the Communism issue. This country has always hated Communists,this is why,in my opinion Americans are more accepting of Cubans.

Obviously, no one on Yahoo Answers went along on your school field trip, so, no one here can give you any specifics for your article.\n\nSo far as format is concerned, think of a snappy-sounding "headline" for your story. Buy a newspaper or two today and look at the way the articles in a real newspaper are set up. It's pretty much like a regular essay - there's a beginning, a middle, and an end (but not a "conclusion"-sounding one).\n\nNewspaper articles always stress the five things all people want to know - the who, the what, the where, the how, and the why. If you can cover all five of those points, you'll be able to compose a good article.\n\nMake sure it is neatly typed, is spell-checked, and contains proper sentence structure. If there are quotes from anybody, make sure to include proper punctuation. And last, but not least, learn your lesson about putting off assignments till the last minute. This will backfire almost every time. Good luck!

Hola Danielito!\nEntiendo tu preocupación, así que esta es mi respuesta. Nos conocimos en la Repúbica Dominicana en Punta Goleta. Se que eres Cubano y que tu padre trabaja en el área de películas. Mi mamá dice que eres un jóven decente con padres amables. (Dice que le mandes saludos a ellos y todo lo mejor). Ahora sabes que de verdad somos Andra y Alex.
