Field Project Assignments - A+ Work Required. Zero Plagiarism
The research quick guide is an unusual assignment, so let me clarify a few things. You will be creating a brief guide to research for a student or practitioner in your field. (If you work, study, and/or are interested in multiple fields, just pick one.) Keep this fairly general--it is not a guide to doing research on a particular topic, but a guide to doing research in a particular field (though there may be exceptional cases in which you need to go a bit narrower--email me if you think one of those cases may be yours). Think of it as something you might want to laminate and keep on your desk so that you can consult it whenever you are starting or working on a research project--or something you might share with new practitioners in your field. For example, you might list a few go-to journals and/or databases in your field. You should also include examples for citing sources in your field's primary documentation style. Make sure you follow the instructions, but you can get creative on this assignment. It should not be in traditional academic paper format. One last comment: Read the instructions carefully. I'll be looking to see if you included all the required components. Pay attention to design as well. Organize the text in a manner that's both attractive and easy to navigate. I've attached an example created by a student a few years ago who gave me permission to share her guide. Your guide doesn't need to (shouldn't, in fact) look exactly like hers, but it should give you an idea of what to include. "SAMPLE Research Quick Guide to English"
