Module Five Project Two Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
In this competency project, you will
analyze the contemporary issue of immigration reform, which presents many
public administrators with various ethical dilemmas. Immigration policy is
often viewed along a spectrum from laissez-faire to strict enforcement, and
different stakeholders advocate to change the law, ignore the law, or obey it.
You will provide an outline of the issues related to immigration policy by
explaining the context and perspectives on the topic. You will also explain the
factors that impact policy development in immigration reform, and the
expectations of public administrators to uphold these policies. In the last
part of this paper, you will assume the role of a border-patrol agent in order
to apply theories of public administration, such as Miles Law, to a real-world
situation. This is the second of three competency projects in this course; it
is due in Module Five.
In this assignment, you will
demonstrate your mastery of the following course competency:
· Describe the essential components of public administration
and its role in contemporary society
