The Writing Prompt:
In 2014, theUniversity of California created the GlobalFood Initiative (GFI). According to UCPresident Janet Napolitano, “Based on your analysis of the reading in Unit 1, justify an evaluation of the GFI. Is the GFI aneffective proposal for addressing problems related to food insecurity, health, and sustainability?
By asking you to evaluate the GFI, we want you to make an argument about its strengths and/orweaknesses. To do this successfully, you will need to choose appropriate criteria to support yourjudgment. You will develop these criteria in your weekly discussions as you analyze and discussthe course materials for this project.
By writing in this genre, you are expected to include an arguable thesis, reasoning and well-documented evidence, and at least one opposing viewpoint or counterargument (although you mayinclude more than one!). We also encourage you to use multimodal elements (pictures, images,graphs, charts etc.) to strengthen your evaluation.
As you compose your project through multiple drafts, imagine you are writing to a UCSDcommittee comprised of administrators, faculty and students. This committee is interested inreading student evaluations of the GFI before they decide whether to make any changes.
***PLEASE PLEASE follow the instructions carefully! Don’t miss any details such as the counterargument***
