research paper

The research paper is the keystone of this course. Although the reading, case studies, and discussion forum cover the functional areas of the course, the research paper provides the learner with the opportunity to investigate/research an HRM area of personal interest. This project runs the entire length of the course.  As with any research paper, the introduction that includes the thesis statement explaining the objective of the paper sets the tone and direction the paper will take.  The body will include a synthesis of the results of the topic research. The conclusion/recommendation provides the conclusion of the paper. As discussed above under the Assignment Expectations and Academic Integrity, the use of correct grammar, spelling, syntax, and citations is expected.  The length of the paper is between 6-15 pages, exclusive of cover page, appendix, and bibliography.

theatre

 
While theatre (almost) came to a stand still during Medieval Times, religious vernacular drama, about biblical figures or events, survived – partly because much of this religious drama was being produced theatrically within the confines of the church.  Out of this drama, came morality plays.  This type of drama, often considered “less” religious and “more” humanistic (from a socially and cultural point of view, because it taught moral lessons to society), has had a significant and lasting impact on theatre and culture in the western world.
Everyman remains the most popular example of a morality play.  After reading the play and doing some additional research on its themes, storyline and characters, your skills of creative writing will now be employed.  This assignment requires you to:

This new interpretation could include (but not be limited by) contemporary images and/or moral concerns; personification and interaction of vices and/or virtues; and themes or lessons for a modern day “Everyperson”.
This assignment should be typed and proofread (4-5 pages in length).  The final choice of how this assignment will be presented (i.e. a fairy tale, short story) is strictly up to you.  Think originality and creativity – images, graphics, Powerpoint/Prezi presentations, video links, etc. are always encouraged to help tell your story.  Some additional research may be needed (remember to document your sources in a bibliography).  Early submissions are always accepted.  Please be aware of spelling, punctuation, grammar, capitalization, etc.  This assignment will be graded according to the Written Assignment 1 Rubric.
The Everyman link provided (sometimes) does not open on all computers.  If that is the case for you, use this alternative translation.
