Each student will select a topic in consultation with me and prepare a research paper, approximately 20-25pages (6,000 words maximumin 12-point font) in length. Students are required to submit a proposal early in the semester to confirm their topics and to receive feedback from me. The resulting research paper should distill issues, connect to appropriate theoretical literatures, evidence with empirical data, and tease out conclusions both scholarly and practitioner-oriented.Students will present this paper (10-12minutes) in Part IV of the class.
