TIPS

•A company's website provides a wealth of information. However, do not copy and paste directly from the company website. If you take any text directly from any resource, put this text in quotation marks.

•Personal interviews are also an excellent source of information. Interview people who work for this company or even someone who works for a competitor! Cite this source just as you would any other source.

•If you work for the company, you cannot help but give your own personal information. However, avoid using yourself as a source for data or facts. This type of information must be supported by a source - employee pamphlet, website, handbook, interview, etc.

•Incorporate your own summaries, interpretations, ideas, opinions into the company data and information you cite. Researching information and then interpreting this information is the primary purpose of any research project. I want to see evidence of research, but I want to see your own ideas and opinions and conclusions in these case reports as well.
