THIS
IS NOT A COURT CASE.
Read all instructions and the grading rubric carefully before beginning your
research paper. Please read and understand all these documents.
This
doctoral-level research assignment is designed to test the ability to conduct
effective research, gain a nuanced understanding of complex concepts,
synthesize the ideas reflected in your research with those reflected in your
textbooks and readings, and evaluate and apply these ideas to an issue of
IGR/IGM. All doctoral-level assignments must comply with the highest writing, research, and ethical
standards. To do well on
this assignment, it must conduct high-quality research and offer a rich,
well-supported analysis; mere opinion or conjecture will not suffice.
A
doctoral-level course requires description and analysis. While descriptions
certainly are the precursor to analyses, they are not the analyses. The analysis is not just opinion statements or a list of authors’ words. Each idea needs elaboration and
explanation and, if possible, supported by data and credible sources.
Also, the analysis should demonstrate the ability to integrate theories with
applications. First, state the
theory then apply it to the case.
It would help to avoid careless or simple grammatical
errors such as misspellings, incomplete sentences, comma splices, or faulty
noun/verb agreement. Such errors will result in substantial point deductions.
