a detailed and researched term paper evaluating the issues of consumerism, globalization, and
climate change. The paper will follow the standards listed below. Each
student must demonstrate their understanding of the topic through in-
depth research.
How to develop the project:
Section Description and checklist
Part 1 –
Introduction
This section identifies the topic of interest (what does the paper seek to explain?)
and provides factual background information on the selected topics (What?
When? Who?). Briefly outline the structure of the paper and your main argument.
Part two –
Discussion
The second part offers a discussion of the selected topic and its link to the class
materials. It summarizes how the chosen topic fits the course. It might further
introduce some more detailed background information necessary for the analysis
in the next section. It gives a clear overview of why the selected topic at hand
might be of interest.
Part three –
Analysis
The third part offers a coherent analysis of the selected topic through the lens of
the class materials and external sources. Data and sources should complement
the analysis (warmly welcomed but not a prerequisite for the news articles). Your
core argument should be validated by evidence and supported by data and
empirical findings.
Part 4 –
Conclusion The conclusions recap the main steps and findings of the research. Far from
merely summarizing facts, the conclusions should critically review the results
and relate them. Sound concluding remarks show the ability to be self-critical
and self-reflective. This means that good conclusions highlight the merits and
limits of one’s research and avenues for further research. Critically assess the
most original and relevant aspects of your analysis and identify its limits. Locate
your analysis in the wider academic debate and identify avenues for further
research.
