Project Assignment: Public Administration Ethics- Research Paper and PowerPoint Presentation
Part I: Overview- Research Paper
The project for the course is in two parts. The first part is the research paper is a narrated PowerPoint presentation of your research paper. For your research paper, you will analyze and discuss the topic that you selected in Unit 2 using the ethical decision-making roadmap (5 stages) found in Chapter 5 of the course textbook.
A research paper is based on research and data - not personal opinion. The appropriate writing style and tone are important in academic papers. Accordingly, avoid,
1. Informal and imprecise language. Do not write the way that you speak.
2. Contractions (e.g., doesn't, can't, isn't) and etc.
3. Colloquialisms. (Used in or characteristic of familiar and informal conversation. E.g., "kind of" used for "somewhat" or "rather".)
4. Idioms. (An expression of a given language that is peculiar to itself grammatically or cannot be understood from the individual meanings of its elements. E.g., "keep tabs on", "back to the drawing board", or "benefit of the doubt".)
5. Hyperbole. (A figure of speech in which exaggeration is used for emphasis or effect, as in "I could sleep for a year" or "this book weighs a ton".)
