Research Paper Topic Proposal

For this class, you will be writing a research/topic paper relating to one of the topics discussed during class: either on the roles of the System Administrators, Network Administrators, Datacenters, or Green Technology. It does not have to be on the same topic as the chapter(s) you were assigned to cover from the textbooks, but it can be.
For the Research Paper Topic Proposal, you will submit the subject of your proposed topic as well as a brief 1 paragraph summary of what you would like to say about that topic in a Microsoft Word document. The proposal will be due on Friday at the end of the 3rd week of class and the final paper will be due the Tuesday of finals week. Be sure to submit your proposal through the Blackboard Assignments system.
You will receive feedback regarding your topic proposals through your Blackboard grade for this assignment. This feedback may include suggestions for changes to your topic proposal so be sure to carefully review your feedback (even if you got a perfect score for this assignment). If your topic isn’t appropriate for the class or if it is too broad, your assignment submission may be returned to you along with comments regarding the appropriateness of the topic you specified. If your topic proposal is returned to you with a grade of 0, you’ll have 1 week to make revisions to your topic proposal and resubmit it through Blackboard. You must incorporate the suggestions made to your topic proposal into your final research/topic paper or otherwise address why you didn’t incorporate the suggestions.

The final paper will need to be 7-10 pages long (double-spaced, 12 pt font, excluding graphics, cover page, bibliography, and any other non-textual content) and will need to include at least 5 references. It should expand upon the information presented in the textbooks, not just rehash the same material. You are limited to 3 direct quotes of no more than 2 sentences within the body of the paper. All papers must adhere to the APA 6th Ed. standard and the  

MSIS Common Format Guidelines

. The papers will also be submitted to a plagiarism detection application to verify that the work submitted is original. The final papers will be posted into a discussion board for all class members to view and comment on.
