Overview

The size of the government has increased significantly in the last decade, specifically the number and power of administrative agencies of the federal government. As the number of agencies has grown, so, too, have the number of rules and orders that they issue. Today, there are rules and regulations that cover every aspect of running a business and its operations. These regulations make up administrative law.

Instructions

For this assignment, you will create a presentation on the various administrative agencies of the federal government, how they function and govern, and what role the courts play in assessing the constitutionality of regulations and decisions. Your presentation should contain 10–15 content slides, including speaker notes, and the additional slides indicated in the

Strayer Writing Standards (SWS) PowerPoint/Slideshow Checklist

. The Strayer University Library provides an SWS Sample Slideshow and SWS Slideshow Template. Title each slide to agree with the content of the slide and make sure your slides follow the design guidelines in the Strayer Writing Standards.

Your presentation should include the following:

1. Explain how administrative agencies are created and describe the types of agencies and their powers.
2. Evaluate the three basic functions of administrative agencies on rulemaking, enforcement, and adjudication.
3. Analyze the role of the judiciary on administrative agency authority and rulemaking by focusing on how oversight by the courts is a check and balance on administrative agencies. Provide two examples where the courts found the agency’s ruling and authority valid.
4. Research a recent case within the last two years of a court overturning an administrative agency’s decision. Explain the facts of the case and the court’s reasoning for the decision.
5. Use at least four quality sources to support your writing and information. Choose sources that are credible, relevant, and appropriate. Cite each source listed at least one time within your PowerPoint presentation and citations should be consistent with your Source page.
6. Produce writing that is clear and well organized and applies appropriate SWS style. Writing contains accurate grammar, mechanics, and spelling.
