Case Study

Assignment Instructions:

• Your response to each of the case study questions should be fully developed,

thorough, and incorporate material covered in the course to support your

ideas/arguments.

• You must Include a Title Page; use paragraphs and headings to distinguish

between each question/section of the assignment.

• You must cite and reference the Textbook (other sources may be included

if desired); also include a list of your sources titled 'References' at the end of

your paper.

• The assignment is not to be comprised solely of your opinions and ideas. Use

in-text citations to avoid plagiarism, and also to demonstrate that you have

done some reflection to write a comprehensive essay. The “About Plagiarism

– External Resources” link, and the file titled "Citations, References, & Turnitin

similarity scores" in Moodle both have all the information to assist you with

citations and references.

• Double check spelling and grammar for major issues, and correct before

posting.

• Check the similarity score generated by Turnitin. If your similarity result is

above 25%, please revise and re-submit.

• Please format your essay so that it is easily readable ( for instance, use Times

New Roman, size 12 font double spaced). Do not use bold unless it is a

heading/title.

WRITING TIPS:

Take time to think carefully about each writing prompt or assignment before you

respond. The prompts are directed toward the unit material. Therefore, you will

need to read and reflect on the central theme presented in the material before you

respond. In other words, this is your time to consider the important concepts from

the unit and translate these ideas into practical actions and/or solutions.

Each response should include a minimum of a separate and distinct paragraph that

is well-developed and comprehensive (substantial). This means each paragraph

should have a topic sentence along with many supporting sentences that include

strong examples to support your main point(s). Utilize your critical thinking skills

and be honest but respectful in your writing. (TIP: A well-developed paragraph is

not a few sentences in length).

Strong reflective work is specific and includes examples from the unit, personal

experiences, and observations about the world within the writing. Responses that

receive full credit demonstrate depth by referencing class material, include

examples from personal experiences or current affairs, offer recommendations,

make new observations, and/or offer counterpoints to the topic.

To get started, first develop your main point then add material from the class

readings and from your own experiences, examples, or observations to back up

your point. Include something that you read, saw on the news, experienced

yourself, or observed.
