Overview
The Question: Has Chlorpyrifos been clearly shown through scientifically valid testing according to generally accepted principles to cause reproductive toxicity?
You will choose the perspective of the chemical manufacturer (Dow), answering that chlorpyrifos has not been clearly shown through scientifically valid testing according to generally accepted principles to cause reproductive toxicity. The argument list should be no more than one page, single spaced. The arguments will be graded on your ability to expand on what you read, heard, and discussed in class, as well as external sources . Your ability to fashion these arguments into your own voice will be a central part of the assessment (i.e. do not repeat verbatim what is in the stakeholder documents). Make sure to back up your arguments in facts. To do so, you may cite studies, news articles, official documents, etc. Any citation style is accepted. The reference list will not count towards the one-page limit. All research papers will be submitted and processed through turn-it-in for plagiarism checking. The software will pick up text found on the web as well as previously submitted term papers at your school and other institutions.
