7.4 Research Project: Milestone 3 (PLG2)

Milestone 3 Deliverable

Before you begin working on Milestone 3, make sure that you go back and review the Research Project: Milestones Guide and Resources page.

Begin working on Milestone 3 by first resaving the corrected  Milestone 2 document as a new Milestone 3 working document. Rename the  corrected Milestone 2 file, changing the Milestone number in the  filename from "2" to "3."

The directions for Milestone 3 are similar to Milestone 2. Review  the five Management Information System topics from the list that you  selected while working on the Milestone 1 assignment. Conduct research and compose scholarly data on two additional topics of the three remaining in the list.

You are required to compose a minimum four new pages of data in the Body of Text section for the two new topics that you chose for this Milestone. You are therefore required to submit a minimum of eight full pages of double-spaced text in the Body of Text section in the Milestone 3 assignment (four pages created in Milestone 2 and four created in Milestone 3).

The Title Page, Abstract, Conclusion, and Reference List pages are not considered part of the Body of Text section. 

A minimum of four primary  reference sources outside of the course textbook are required to be  cited and referenced in the Milestone 3 assignment document submission.

As you do your research, keep up the Reference List page and make notes for the Conclusion page of your final draft document.

Use Turnitin to screen for citation and plagiarism issues; this submission does not go into the main repository.

The Milestone 3 Rubric will be used to grade your Milestone 3 assignment submission.

Milestone 3 is due by the end of Module 7.

Research Project Discussion

Throughout the different stages of working on your Research Project  paper, use the Research Project Discussion to ask questions or share  information that may help your peers. This is mainly a peer-to-peer and  instructor-to-class forum. Side discussions are welcome but know that  all of the students in the course can review your posted data and  comments. Your instructor will check the posts to ensure that the  questions being asked are answered accurately or to clarify statements.
