The paper will be a research and analytical endeavor of a current, controversial, narrowly focused topic, involving business directly or indirectly, that has legal, ethical, and social responsibility ramifications. The term paper will be approximately 15-25, double-spaced, pages in text length, not including cover page or Appendices, with length depending on topic and whether individual or group effort, and if the latter the size of the group.
The paper must be written according to APA style; and be carefully and currently referenced. Appropriate references are critical. This is a research paper in addition to an analytical paper, and thus the student must use at least 6 different sources, including books and textbooks, though at the graduate level preference should be given to published journal articles. Other sources may be organizational websites, government websites, or other reputable Internet sources. Since a requirement of the paper is that the topic be a “current” one, so too should be the references. Be sure to try to use published journal articles or books as sources, and not less-reliable Internet websites. Reference the paper very carefully and appropriately. Students may use a company’s website, but do so sparingly, and remember that what a company has on its own website may be positively biased in its favor. Academic integrity is of the utmost importance in this term paper; so cite all sources and use APA style for citations and quotations in the text.
Appearance, punctuation, grammar, neatness, and spelling count. This must be a professional looking paper at the graduate level to receive full credit. Paper should have an introduction, body, conclusion, and reference section; paper should also have appropriate headings and sub-headings in the body of the paper as noted in the course paper requirements. Be sure to use the required school title page with author certification statement. A Table of Contents must be included which lists each heading as well as the beginning page number for that section. Write transition sentences between sections so that the reader knows where student(s) are proceeding and why. Transition sentences also help to integrate a paper and enhance its “flow.”
Note that this is a research and analytical paper. Analyses based on the law, ethics, and social responsibility, and reasoning to conclusions based on legal, ethical, and social responsibility principles, are required, and are expected, at the graduate level. The paper must be substantive, principled-based, logical, and well reasoned at the graduate level. For individual or group papers, avoid all personal pronouns, such as “I” and “We”; rather use “The authors.” Avoid any personal opinions except in the overall Conclusion to the paper.
