Here is what the rubric for the essay included. The Topic I am doing is Presсrіption Drugaddiction. It has to be APA style, and this professor is VERY strict about essay level,paragraph level, and sentence level. If the essay is not structure as he provided below hegrades it poorly. You do not have to worry about the title page I can fill that out, but if youinclude the abstract and sources you have used that would be great. 1. Intro: Tell me aboutyour chosen discipline and present your chosen topic. End with a thesis that tells me whothis problem hurts and who it benefits. 2. Definition/Setup a. Describe your topic: Explainwhat your topic is and why it’s a problem for society today. What are some of the ways thatthis impacts the world? b. Explain the source: When did this problem begin? What caused it?Has it gotten better or worse over time? 3. Group 1 – Those the problem hurts a. Explainwho the group is: Explain who this problem impacts most. Pay special attention to peoplewith differing racial/ethnic identities, socioeconomic classes, gender expressions, sexualities,religions, ages, political beliefs, etc. Consider which career groups or interest groups wouldbe most hurt by the problem. Why does the problem affect these groups more than others?b. Explain how it hurts them: Does it affect them financially/economically? Does it impacttheir mental/physical/emotional health and wellness? Does it hurt their social standing? Doesit impact their access to politics/power? Why is this the case? 4. Group 2 – Those whobenefit from the problem a. Explain who the group is: In this section, consider what groupswould benefit from this problem. Why might these groups have something to gain? Considerall of the same types of groups as above. b. Explain how it benefits them: Why might thesegroups want this problem to continue existing? Do they benefit financially/economically? Isthere a social incentive? Do they have anything to gain politically? Would they do anything tomake sure that this problem isn’t solved? Could this problem exist on purpose? Why is thisthe case? 5. Outro: Conclude by reinforcing what you’ve said above – tell me who thebiggest victims are and tell me who the biggest beneficiaries are. Do we learn somethinginteresting about the problem if we compare these two groups? Does this help usunderstand why the problem exists in the first place? Or maybe why it hasn’t been solved?Tips for this Assignment o Spend some time thinking about which discipline you’d like toexplore first and foremost.
