Module- Case Assignment: INTRODUCTION TO GRADUATE STUDIES
Overview
Module 1 provides an introduction to academic research, writing, and referencing as well as samples of work in the field of business ethics that may be helpful in supporting other assignments in this course.
In the Module 1 Case, a form of treasure hunt, you will be exploring the Trident Online Library (accessed at the top left of the TLC Portal home page) for articles, books, and websites devoted to various topics in business ethics. After locating these items, the assignment calls for providing end references, in-text citations, or correctly referenced paraphrasing (putting a quotation into your your own words). Make sure to review the required readings on the Module 1 Background page thoroughly before starting on this assignment as the material will give you some precise guidance on referencing, formatting, and using the Trident Online Library.
