Description
Post a short paragraph about one or two of the products in your house. This discussion dovetails nicely with this week's assignment, but you do not have to post about the TNC you have chosen to research. What did you find out that really surprised you? Why was it surprising? Was there anything you found that was actually locally owned or made in the United States that surprised you? I’d like to get a diverse set of posts, so try to be creative, and try to have fun with this one:
Some questions you might think about:
- Where was your furniture made? Where did you buy it?
- We know, for the most part, who makes iPhones and Kindle Fires and Androids, so don’t post about your electronic gadgets.
- Where did you get the clothes you are wearing and who made them?
- Think small as well—what about your shampoo? Your razor? Stationery items like pens, paper, notebooks and so on.
- If you have children, who made their toys? Or if you’re a child at heart, who made your toys?
- What about the food in your cupboard or refrigerator? Could your organic fruit juice actually be a subsidiary of Coca-Cola? If it’s Odwalla, it sure is! But if you’re drinking Nantucket Nectars, you’re supporting the Dr. Pepper Snapple Group. Do you have any cereal in the house? You may be interested not only in what company produces it, but where they get their grains. Are they purchasing from Monsanto? Where did you get your groceries? Do you know who actually owns Trader Joe’s?
- If you’re a drinker . . . did you know Budweiser is owned by a Belgian TNC? Did you know that Maker’s Mark Kentucky Bourbon is owned by a French conglomerate?
- How many products in the frozen foods section of the grocery store do you think are sold by Nestle?
Your initial post should be 200-300 words.

ENC 1101 FSCC Impact of Technology on Students Academic Performance Proposal & Essay
The purpose of the research project is to foster sustained critical thinking, reading, and writing that illustrates depth and significance. In the research project, you will collect, evaluate, and synthesize sources to support a thesis statement of your own design.
For this assignment, you will develop a topic proposal for your research assignment.
Process
There are very few topic limitations for this project, as you should choose something that is relevant to your personal interests or to your major. The topic of your choice must meet the following conditions:
The project must be informative, with a thesis statement supported by evidence.
The project must be a "deep dive" into a specific topic and conversation.
The first part of any research assignment is to go about finding a topic. Usually, we have a general idea to start that we then develop into a research question that is limited in scope. It is helpful to think of the process of topic development as a funnel: you put in a lot, but come out with a manageable amount. In order to develop an excellent research question, you must perform background research on your potential topic so you can develop a challenging, informed, and specific question. A well-developed research question will set you up for success during the research step of the process. Your topic proposal will summarize your background research, your research question, and outline a research plan with a specific calendar. You will also define the scope/specific focus of your project.
