Specifications:
1. Examine the syllabus and the works assigned from Module 02 to Module 12.
2. Choose an assigned work from Module 02 to Module 12. (An assigned work will have an
author/poet and a title.)
3. Develop a topic/focus area for the work. Your topic must relate directly to an assigned
selection. (Think of your Research Project topic like a topic for an essay. You don’t
want your topic too broad or too narrow.)
4. You will need to:
a. type a 4-page, MLA-formatted research paper in MS Word (2013, 2010, or 2007)
b. be original; don’t cheat or plagiarize
c. specifically base your concept on an assigned work from Module 02 to Module
12; don’t pick a general topic such as “war” or “religion,” and a biography is
unacceptable
d. achieve college sophomore organization, content, and quality standards; don’t
post unorganized work full of inconsistencies and grammar errors and expect a
good grade
e. maintain academic honesty, crediting sources where appropriate; if you copy,
quote, paraphrase material or ideas, credit the source in MLA format
f. create an MLA-formatted Works Cited page with an entry for the primary source
(the assigned work from Module 02 to Module 12) and with entries for all secondary sources (articles, books, scholarly journal articles, etc.) cited within your paper
5. Get your selection choice and topic approved. This should be accomplished via M07 Assignment_Research Project (topic request). Mrs. Brown will post your name and your selection/topic for the entire class to see, so that no student will be able pick your exact topic for this assignment. It is very possible you and another student will research the same work, but each student MUST have different topics/focus areas, so be specific.
6. If you do not submit a topic into the Canvas assignment for approval,
you will not be allowed to submit a Research Project during Module 13.
7. After M07 Assignment_Research Project (topic request) closes, if your topic needs a re-submission or a clarification, I will provide feedback in M07 Assignment_Research
Project (topic request)’s conversation thread. Please keep all content regarding topic re- submissions and clarifications in the assignment’s conversation tread.
a. If your topic needs a re-submission or a clarification, I will give you a specific deadline to meet.
b. You must meet the re-submission or clarification deadline to avoid losing points on M13 Assignment_Research Project (submission).
