Case Study needs to adhere to the specifications below. The student will submit a Case Study of at least 500 words, not including title page and references, by the end of class in the week it is due. The student will use at least one source, our course textbook, in the development of the Case Study. More references may be used, if desired. Additional references may come from academic journals, professional or academic textbooks, authored websites, or standard business publications such as The Wall Street Journal. Not more that 35% of the content can be taken directly from all sources. This means that if Turnitin is used, then the similarity index must be 35% or lower. The final score of the Case Study will be reduced by 1 point for each percentage point over 35%. This percentage may initially appear high, however if the suggested format noted below is utilized, the headings, which use the questions, will contribute approximately 15% to the similarity index. A list of common errors found in Case Studies can be found below.
