Module 2 Assignment

In this SLP you will examine all stakeholders associated with Pyrethroids and Pyrethrins . Write a 3-4+ page paper in which you:

1. Identify all stakeholders associated with Pyrethroids and Pyrethrins . (Remember, there are differences in opinions within various stakeholders groups.)
2. Describe the interest that each stakeholders has in Pyrethroids and Pyrethrins . (Sufficient detail is required so that the appropriate areas of interest are addressed in the risk management plan.)
3. Describe what are the possible consequences to the general acceptance and credibility of the plan if key stakeholders are omitted or not considered in the environmental health risk management plan.

Before you try to identify appropriate stakeholders for this project, it is recommended that you review the following site:

Getting Started – Identifying Stakeholders at http://web.mit.edu/urbanupgrading/upgrading/issues-tools/tools/Ident-stakeholders.html

The process of identifying stakeholders is very important for participatory analysis to be effective. You should understand that within an overall stakeholder group, such as oil companies or retail sales stores, opinions and positions on issues may vary significantly. Its the same thing in political parties.

Be sure to justify your opinions with evidence from the literature. Your answer should be supported by references and the references should be cited in the body of your discussion as well as in a reference list.

SLP Assignment Expectations

Length: SLP should be approximately 3-5 pages or approximately 600 to 1200 words.

References: At least three references should be included from academic sources (e.g. peer-reviewed journal articles). Required readings are included. Quoted material should not exceed 10% of the total paper (since the focus of these assignments is critical thinking). Use your own words and build on the ideas of others. When material is copied verbatim from external sources, it MUST be enclosed in quotes. The references should be cited within the text and also listed at the end of the assignment in the References section (preferably in APA format).

Organization: Subheadings should be used to organize your paper according to question

Format: APA format is recommended (but not required) for this assignment. See Syllabus page for more information on APA format.

Grammar and Spelling: While no points are deducted, assignments are expected to adhere to standards guidelines of grammar, spelling, punctuation, and sentence syntax. Points may be deducted if grammar and spelling impact clarity.

The following items will be assessed in particular:

• Relevance (e.g. all content is connected to the question)
• Precision (e.g. specific question is addressed. Statements, facts, and statistics are specific and accurate).
• Depth of discussion (e.g. present and integrate points that lead to deeper issues)
• Breadth (e.g. multiple perspectives and references, multiple issues/factors considered)
• Evidence (e.g. points are well-supported with facts, statistics and references)
• Logic (e.g. presented discussion makes sense, conclusions are logically supported by premises, statements, or factual information)
• Clarity (e.g. writing is concise, understandable, and contains sufficient detail or examples)
• Objectivity (e.g. avoid use of first person and subjective bias)

Module 4 Assignment

For this SLP, write a 3-5+ page paper in which you:

1. Identify and examine risk management options for Pyrethroids and Pyrethrins  , and
2. Describe how Pyrethroids and Pyrethrins impacts are controlled.

Examples of options include regulatory and non-regulatory approaches to reducing risk such as recycling, taxing industries on the basis of pollution, limiting pollutant emissions, and eliminating the use of hazardous materials. Try to consider all reasonable alternatives including the alternative of no project.

Be sure to justify your opinions with evidence from the literature. Your answer should be supported by references and the references should be cited in the body of your discussion as well as in a reference list.
