Assignment: Corrosion
Corrosion is a leading cause of the structural degradation of bridges and
roadways. Not only dust rust weaken metal structures, but as it builds up it also
forces apart connecting parts of the structure, causing it to fail, which risks public
safety. However, methods used to prevent corrosion may also have negative
effects on human health. In this assignment, you will research and evaluate the
environmental and health effects associated with methods used to prevent the
corrosion of electronics, then communicate your findings in the form of a
research paper.
Instructions
Your task is research and communicate your findings on the environmental and
health hazards associated with the prevention of corrosion of electronic waste.
Be sure to include in your paper a discussion of how the substances used by the
industry to prevent corrosion. It is important that you include examples in your
paper, where possible, to support your ideas.
There are multiple parts to this assignment. It is strongly recommend that you
complete each sequentially to ensure that your teacher has an opportunity to
review and provide feedback on all components of your report.
Part I: Planning Your Research Paper
1. Select a topic to research and evaluate as a part of this assignment. You may
select any environmental and/or health effects associated with corrosion
prevention. Possible questions to consider are provided if you are having
difficulty finding a topic.
2. Create a plan or outline for your paper that includes your thesis and the
three main points you intend to present in support of your thesis.

3. Submit a list of three resources you wish to use to write your paper. Ensure
your resources are listed in APA style.
4. Submit your completed research paper outline to the Dropbox. Your teacher
will review and provide you feedback on how to proceed with your research
paper.
Questions to Consider:
What health and safety hazards are associated with waste generated
by electroplating companies?
What is being done to reduce the impact that waste is having on the
environment and human health?
What are some of the toxic substances that can escape from electronic
waste on the the environment?
What are the potential effects of these chemicals on your health?
Important
Your grade is linked to both parts of the assignment. Wait for feedback from
your teacher on the components of Part I before working on and completing
your research paper.
Part II: Writing Your Research Paper
1. Write your research paper, incorporating the feedback and direction from your
teacher. Your research paper should have an introduction, body, and
conclusion. Typically, you would have one paragraph for each of your
introduction and conclusion. The body of your research paper can have
multiple paragraphs. The focus of the body of your paper should be the three
main points you submitted to your your teacher in Part I.
2. Include any relevant data you obtained from your research to support your
main ideas. Ensure your data is obtained from a credible source.
3. Use in-text citations to reference any information you wish to present that is
not your own original idea, such as data and theories/opinions of others.
4. Submit a reference list that includes all the sources you used in your
research paper. Ensure that both your in-text citations and reference list are
