- Description: Each student must choose one of the regions that are provided in this document to finish a term-long research paper. The research paper should include a 4500 words description of the research result, a series of graphs, and supporting data and diagrams. The final format will be a paper and a 20 mins long presentation. After the third class, students can sign up for the region they want to research – first come first serve.
- Content
An additional document outlines the required content. Stick to the chapter structure as much as possible but diverge or add as required. Make sure you cover the mandatory charts. - Style
It goes without saying; the format of paper and presentation is an essential part of the grading. Make sure that it’s clean, neat. An excellent book for beginners is “The Wall Street Journal Guide to Information Graphics: The Dos and Don’ts of Presenting Data, Facts, and Figures”. Text and charts must follow a cohesive style scheme, e.g., color, font, size, etc. Use the “content and style guide that’s provided”. - Instruction on the graph and diagram
- Data and calculations need to be included in the submission – preferably in excel
- Sources must be clearly outlined and will be reviewed
- Consistent format is required
