The professor has found that too often students get a general sense of what is bein" rel="nofollow">ing asked but write answers that don't specifically answer the question. Usually there is material in" rel="nofollow">in Cooper & Schin" rel="nofollow">indler that relates well to the Case, and can help you to provide succin" rel="nofollow">inct answers. For example, the first question for Case Study assignment asks about the Management-Research Question Hierarchy. You can read all about that in" rel="nofollow">in Cooper & Schin" rel="nofollow">indler on pp. 77-79. The Case Study should be in" rel="nofollow">included as one of your references, as should the textbook, if you refer to it. PROOFREAD your work and you will notice some of the little typos or other mistakes that were not in" rel="nofollow">intentional In addition, the paper must meet the followin" rel="nofollow">ing standards: • The content of the paper is well developed and fully addresses all aspects of the assignment. • The paper is written well and is fluid, well organized, and engagin" rel="nofollow">ing. • The sources are adequate and substantial for the paper and in" rel="nofollow">include the required amount for each reply. • For each case assignment, provide in" rel="nofollow">integration of a biblical concept that supports your response. Biblical in" rel="nofollow">integration is more than just quotin" rel="nofollow">ing a verse. Be sure to explain" rel="nofollow">in the biblical prin" rel="nofollow">inciple seen in" rel="nofollow">in the verse and how that prin" rel="nofollow">inciple may be applied to the issue at hand. • The clarity and mechanics contribute to discussion with clear, concise comments formatted in" rel="nofollow">in an easy to read style that is free of mechanical errors such as grammar and/or spellin" rel="nofollow">ing.

Scholarly Journals - What are they? Scholarly journals (also called "professional" or "peer reviewed" journals) are a type of periodical. Other types of periodicals are magazin" rel="nofollow">ines and newspapers. Most onlin" rel="nofollow">ine databases contain" rel="nofollow">in a limiter you can select so results only show certain" rel="nofollow">in types of journals. For best results, select "Journal Article" in" rel="nofollow">in the "Document Type" limiter (if it is available), as well as the "Peer Reviewed"* limiter. *Items such as "letters to the editor," book reviews, etc., are not peer reviewed, although they are found in" rel="nofollow">in peer reviewed journals. Characteristics of Scholarly Journals • Articles report on origin" rel="nofollow">inal research or experiments (as opposed to news or opin" rel="nofollow">inion pieces). • Articles written by a scholar/author who has done research in" rel="nofollow">in a particular field or disciplin" rel="nofollow">ine. • Language is technical and specialized. • Sources cited in" rel="nofollow">in the form of footnotes or bibliographies. • Often published by universities or professional societies. Ensure that the paper has a great thesis statement: • tells the reader how you will in" rel="nofollow">interpret the significance of the subject matter under discussion. • is a road map for the paper; in" rel="nofollow">in other words, it tells the reader what to expect from the rest of the paper. • directly answers the question asked of you. A thesis is an in" rel="nofollow">interpretation of a question or subject, not the subject itself. The subject, or topic, of an essay might be World War II or Moby Dick; a thesis must then offer a way to understand the war or the novel. • makes a claim that others might dispute. • is usually a sin" rel="nofollow">ingle sentence somewhere in" rel="nofollow">in your first paragraph that presents your argument to the reader. The rest of the paper, the body of the essay, gathers and organizes evidence that will persuade the reader of the logic of your in" rel="nofollow">interpretation. • A thesis statement is a short (just 1 or 2 sentences) clear summary of an argument. When writin" rel="nofollow">ing a paper to convin" rel="nofollow">ince others of somethin" rel="nofollow">ing, a thesis statement should go at the end of the 1st paragraph. 1. References A min" rel="nofollow">inimum of 8 recent scholarly articles (not textbooks, Wikipedia, or other popular readin" rel="nofollow">ing magazin" rel="nofollow">ines), in" rel="nofollow">in current APA format, must be in" rel="nofollow">included and must contain" rel="nofollow">in persistent lin" rel="nofollow">inks so others may have in" rel="nofollow">instant access. 1.
