that is not on this list, your topic must be approved by me first.
A Case Study into the Chernobyl or Three Mile Island Nuclear Accident
What happened or went wrong? Who is to blame or is there no one to blame? What were the
effects (environmental and human)? What are the long term impacts for the region?
Paper: Minimum of 3 pages (double spaced, size 12 Times or Ariel font, standard 1 inch
margins)
Internet Research:
Research for this project is not limited to certain websites. However, you must choose reliable
websites on which to base your research. The most reliable websites will still be .gov, .org,
and .edu websites, but depending you your research topic, you may need to use some .com sites.
Remember that Wikipedia is not a reliable source, so you should not cite it in your paper.
Non-website based research: You should find at least two scholarly articles from an EBSCO
search. I found the Academic Search Elite returned some good results.
