Course Material and Research
This project requires you to do research on the Internet. You are to use course material going beyond defining terms. You are expected to explain the ‘why and how’ of a situation. Avoid merely making statements but close the loop of the discussion by explaining how something happens or why something happens, which focuses on importance and impact. In closing the loop, you will demonstrate the ability to think clearly and rationally showing an understanding of the logical connections between the course material and the question(s). Additionally, using one or two in-text citations from the course material throughout the entire paper will not earn many points on the assignment. Subsequently, the support must be relevant and applicable to the topic discussion. Points are not for mentioning a term or concept but by clearly and thoroughly explaining or discussing the question at hand.
