Research Projects
-- Basic Expectations |
|
All assignments should be well‑researched,
well‑written, and free of grammatical and spelling errors., They
must include appropriate citations and references. All research
papers must adhere to APA format. Information about research
sources, writing style, and APA format is available in the Publication manual of the American Psychological
Association, currently a required CJ 300 text also available
at the Bookstore and the Reserve Library. |
|
Your reports should build upon the
theories and skills developed in this and prerequisite courses,
including Research Methods and other core courses as well
as the organizational communication courses you have completed or
are taking concurrently. Your reports should also draw from a
variety of research sources including articles from scholarly
journals and books, from trade books, and from training
materials. You must cite the source for any materials you use
which you did not create; if you copy or adapt something from
another source, give credit. Although it would be fine to
interview other faculty as part of your research, please do
not expect them to provide you with materials. Some will be
nice to you but will then tell me how lazy you were for expecting
them to do your research for you or how arrogant you were for
wishing to appropriate their materials and pass them off as your
own. |
