I’m working on a political science project and need an explanation to help me understand better.

The purpose of this project is to demonstrate your ability to identify and examine a current political problem or challenge within one specific country or focused set of select counties, develop a research question, identify and use a variety of appropriate resources to gather information, engage in critical analysis, and present a clear and focused argument based on key concepts and theories and supported by evidence.

The complete project consists of a progressive set of assignments that include an annotated bibliography, a written proposal, a persuasive research-based paper, and an academic poster presentation.

For a full description and instructions, review the Problem-Solution Project: Description page.
