Based on our responses we have clearly identified issues of concern. Issues that have direct impact on either ourselves or people close to us. As students it is possible that you have seen these issues first hand in your communities or schools. These are also issues that are of local, state, national, and global importance. For example, bullying has become a national issue as many students have and are experiencing this from their peers. The pain, humiliation, and sadly the lost of lives has angered many to act against such aggression. Interestingly, how we seek to address these issues vary. For many of us we see the impact we as individuals can make to solve these issues while the rest of us see the need to include organizations or other individuals. Regardless of how seek to address these issues we understand the need to find solutions. I would encourage us as a group to think deeply on how these issues affect the world. How does drug abuse affect the world? How does pollution and poverty impact how we live or view the world?

To answer these questions I encourage you to go back and add to your responses. I have responded to each of your responses on your profile page (in red) with questions to consider. Feel free to add to this chart additional responses.
