Research Topic

Identify a research topic in communication or on current issues related to communication, or from the suggested list of topics distributed in class. In your research, you are expected to demonstrate originality, creativity, and knowledge of related literature in the subject matter or topic area of your choice. Furthermore, you should show the intellectual significance of your overall research effort,

You are reminded to acknowledge sources used and to cite properly in your papers. Citations should conform to the APA style manual. Plagiarism in research papers and other written assignments must be avoided, because such assignments/papers will not be graded or will receive a failing grade. For the benefit of students who may not know, plagiarism is “taking and using another person’s ideas or writings as one’s own, without giving proper credit or acknowledgment.” You are, therefore, encouraged to carefully to identify sources utilized in your paper. Good sources and appropriate citations enhance a researcher’s credibility
