Term Paper Assignment -
Instructions - For term paper, you are required to pick a current ("hot", widely discussed) economic event that relates to the material (topic) we have covered or will cover in this course.
This paper has to show your ability to apply the concepts you have learned in this class to the analysis of the current events.
Stay away from purely theoretical articles. For example, if you want to write a paper about price discrimination, do not choose an article that is talking about price discrimination and or its types in general. Rather, find an article that is talking about today's (current) examples of companies using price discrimination.
Please make sure that you choose a topic from MICROeconomics, not MACROeconomics. For example, you cannot write about such macroeconomic topics as unemployment, inflation, recession, exchange rates, immigration, etc.
Research and find a NEWS ARTICLE that covers the event you have chosen. You can use an article online or offline from any reputable source. Make sure to provide a reference and a full link to this article in your paper.
Then, supplement it with another 2-3 sources that relate to the same econ concept as your main new article of choice.
Write a review of the article and integrate course concepts into your review.
Your paper should be structured as follows:
1. Introduction (here, you can discuss which topic you chose and why it interested you).
2. A Brief Summary of the Chosen Article.
3. Discussion How This Article Relates to the Topic Discussed in the Class (this should be the largest part of your paper).
4. Conclusion
5. References
Make sure to break your paper down into sections and title each of the sections of your paper, including the introduction and conclusion.
Note - Need 700 words paper + title page + references with in-text citations.
