Additional considerations to keep in mind while working on your case assignments:
Originality and Use of directly quoted material
•The purpose of each assignment is for you to present your understanding and synthesis of the background material and key concepts. Accordingly, this must be accomplished substantially in your own words.
•Use directly quoted material sparingly and only when preserving the exact words of an author is necessary. For purposes of this course, rarely should directly quoted material represent more than 5-10 percent of your entire case paper’s content. Composing a paper patched together from mostly quoted material is not acceptable.
•Be sure to properly reference all directly quoted material and include the in-text citations. All paraphrased information also requires reference citations at the end of the paraphrased section.
Grades
•A paper that answers all assignments questions and supports the same with good key points, well supported discussions and quality references will earn a solid “B” grade.
•Please remember that “A” papers are exceptional works that go beyond just answering the questions and provide insightful answers.
