Final paper
A comprehensive research paper on the key learning objectives from this course will fulfill Dialogue of Self and Study (DSS) 300 Level written communication requirements.
Your paper must include separate sections addressing what you have learned regarding each of the learning outcomes for this course. How you frame the discussion is up to you, provided that you demonstrate your mastery of the learning objectives. Feel free to get a little creative; you might write a draft employee handbook, write a detailed plan for what you will do to manage human resources at your next job, write a study guide for this course, or do something else entirely.
The Final Paper requires research from course materials and at least three (3) independent sources that you find separately. Students are encouraged to share their sources in advance with the instructor, to be certain that what you’ve found are reputable and acceptable sources for your Final Paper.
Your paper will be graded based on the detailed rubric posted in Canvas. It will be critical for you to review this rubric in advance, and to ensure that you’re touching on all of the key areas being evaluated. Students are encouraged to start working on the paper a little at a time throughout the course, so that you can write about each learning topic while it is fresh in your mind.
The Final Paper is due in Canvas the Sunday prior to the end of the semester. This is worth 20% of your final grade, so don’t wait until the last minute!
