Expanded Course Description
Research and Writing engages students in a challenging, term-length research project. Students will propose innovative research questions; develop methodologically sound approaches; locate, collect, and analyze relevant sources, evidence, and/or data; and synthesize and communicate their results in a final term paper and oral presentations. Throughout the class, students will develop skills in multiple dimensions of research from planning to execution to dissemination of conclusions and will learn ethical standards of research conduct.
