Week 8 – Written Report
General Written Report Instructions
One of the course objectives is to strengthen and enhance student literacy in the field of Conservation Biology, and one of the best ways to do this is by reading and writing.
After interacting with the week’s materials, create a thoughtful report that summarizes the material and more importantly, summarizes your learning and responses to the materials.
Please submit graduate level writing that includes citations as appropriate. Use whatever citation format you are comfortable with, just use the same format throughout.
Create your report as an MS Word document (.docx, .rtf, or .txt) and upload to Blackboard.
Minimum word count is 750; this does not mean to stop when you get to 750. Stop when you have appropriately reflected on the materials and your learning.
If you are having trouble getting started, use these prompts:
Identify one important concept, research finding, theory, or idea that you learned while reading the materials.
Why do you believe this concept, research finding, theory, or idea is important?
Apply what you learned from the readings to some aspect of your life.
What questions have the readings raised? What are you still wondering about?
Be careful not to plagiarize. Be sure the report is written in your own words. Do not copy verbatim from the readings or anyone else’s writing.
Please keep in mind that these are article reviews (summaries) not a research paper. Also, please write as best possible meaning no repeating of sentences just to make the paper seem longer and please be good with your grammar. I’ve had issues in the past with another writer and turned in a paper late because I wrote it all over myself. It affected my grade and I was very upset. Please write it at the college level! Thank you.
I am attaching the links for what needs to be summarized.
