• Topic: Laws against sexual and religious discrimination in the workplace
Instructions:
Research Project: Students will work individually to investigate, develop/write and submit the research project. This research project will include: (1) a cover page, (2) an analysis of secondary information available on a current HRM topic presented through a short paper (i.e., essay), including reference citations, (3) a list of references used to support the essay development, and (3) a more comprehensive annotated bibliography on the HRM issue under investigation.
• Your research summary should take the form of a essay that summarizes your findings. Be sure to follow APA (7th ed.) format, including appropriate cover page header, title, author(s) and course information; page 2 header, title on first line, and content written in paragraph form. References cited in the essay portion will be presented in APA format, following the essay conclusion.
• Following the Reference section will be your Annotated Bibliography. This section will include a significant number of relevant references and presented in APA format. In addition to the usual reference citation, however, the annotated bibliography sections will also include short paragraphs that describe how the article listed above relates to your research topic. Annotations should be original written work, developed by each student, and written in third person. It will be considered an act of academic dishonesty if another source is primarily used to cut and paste the annotations.
• The final research project should include an annotated bibliography of 10 appropriate sources. Further, to ensure proper content and quality, a minimum of (5) peer-reviewed journal must be included in the final submission, and to the extent possible, a majority of your sources should be less than two years old.
