ITECC 4205 Research Paper

 

This assessment, the research paper and presentation, is worth 25 points or 25% of your overall

 

course grade. There is two parts to this assessment so please read this entire document before

 

you do anything else.

 

Make sure that your topic is pre-approved!!!! Choose one of the provided topics OR make sure

 

that I have pre-approved your topic.

 

THE RESEARCH PAPER

 

The primary objective of the research paper is to provide opportunity to isolate a topic of your

 

own interest relating to anything we’ve covered this semester, including your readings,

 

discussion topics, or assignments. You will explore the topic in depth, making sure that you are

 

using the school’s online library GALILEO. You may use other research tools, but please be

 

sure that you reference all sources including at least two articles from GALILEO. Remember

 

that you can search twitter for the hashtag #ITEC4205 and find lots of up-to-date topics. From

 

the online library GALILEO, you are to retrieve, use, and cite a minimum of TWO articles

 

about your topic.

 

You are to write a minimum 2,000-word paper that includes:

 

• Your findings on the specific pre-approved topic that you have chosen. Make sure that

 

your topic has been pre-approved by Dr. Mercer.

 

• Your thoughts and reactions about your findings and the importance of the topic to

 

today’s technological world.

 

• How effectively (or ineffectively) individuals and organizations address the issues you

 

found about your topic.

 

• Close with what you have learned about the topic and its importance to you as an IT

 

professional.

 

The format:

 

• The first page should be a title page that contains: “your name”, “ITEC 4205”, “Research

 

Paper”, the topic you chose, and the date.

 

• The overall format of the paper is as follows:

 

o all margins at 1 inch; o use the Times New Roman 12-pt. font; o

 

DOUBLE SPACE the essay;

 

o page numbers in the lower right corner;

 

o the title page is page “0” and the page number does not print on the

 

title page.

 

• Content from your articles and any other sources must be correctly cited and referenced.

 

Refrain from copying word-for-word text. The paper must be written in your own words.

 

Refer back to the syllabus and the policy on academic misconduct. Do not plagiarize.

 

• The filename of the research paper is to be as follows: your last name your first name

 

ITEC 4205 Research Paper

 

I expect well written sentences with spelling and grammar checked. Your submission should be

 

formatted properly. Carefully proofread before you turn in your final work. Make sure that you

 

read it out loud before you turn it in as well so that you find awkward and run-on sentences that

 

many grammar checkers will not find. I will use the Research Paper Grading Rubric to evaluate

 

this assignment.

 

If the research paper is submitted past the deadline or it is less than the required page count, it

 

will automatically incur a 50% penalty. Another 10% penalty will be applied for each additional

 

24-hour period the paper is considered past due, or for each 350 words that is less than the

 

required word count, or for papers that did not use content nor reference at least two articles

 

retrieved from GALILEO. The word count does not include the title page or the reference list.

 

The research paper is posted in D2L. When you submit your paper, you are also to submit PDF

 

copies of the two articles you obtained from GALILEO. Don’t forget these as they are part of

 

the assessment as well.

 

THE PRESENTATION

 

For this assessment, worth 5 points, post a 5-7 minute video presentation about your research

 

that includes:

 

• Your thoughts and reactions about your findings and the importance of the topic to

 

today’s technological world.

 

• How effectively (or ineffectively) individuals and organizations address the issues you

 

found about your topic.

 

• Closes with what you have learned about the topic and its importance to you as an IT

 

professional.

 

• Check spelling and formatting.

 

Make sure sources of information are cited when necessary and references are provided at the

 

end of the presentation. You will be graded on the quality of the presentation.

 

Post the PowerPoint, Google Slides presentation, or a link to the presentation on the

 

platform of your choice (Canva, Google Slides, or other tool) in the discussion topic titled

 

“Research Paper Presentations” by the paper due date as stated in D2L. This is worth five

 

points of your final course grade.

 

Please note: You will not be eligible for a grade for a presentation if you did not submit the

 

research paper by its deadline.
