=== Assignments === Assignments fall into one of two categories: weekly and final (details for both below). In general, I will ask you to submit any written assignments as a PDF via Canvas. There are no specific style guidelines or formatting requirements for written assignments. I recommend a clear, professional, and conversational tone in your writing. I also recommend you familiarize yourself with salient [[User:Aaronshaw/Classroom_policies#Academic_integrity|principles on academic integrity]], including the appropriate attribution of sources. Please submit written work in a readable (size 11 or greater) font. Please include your name somewhere (prominent) in the document that you submit as well as your last name at the beginning of the filename (e.g., "Shaw-mts501-week1-assignment.pdf"). ==== Weekly assignments ==== The course schedule (below) provides details of all weekly assignments as well as links to materials and Canvas pages required to complete them. In general, '''weekly assignments are due Mondays at 6pm U.S. central time''' in order to allow time for review of (and sometimes feedback on) your submitted materials ahead of our class session. Weekly assignments will consist of readings, written materials, and occasional activities related to the class topic that week. For activities that involve collaboration or conversation with colleagues, it is up to you to coordinate any meeting times, places, or communication channels as needed. '''Discussion topics and questions for guest speakers:''' You are required to submit at least one discussion topic/question for each guest speaker each week (one topic and/or question per speaker). The [https://canvas.northwestern.edu/courses/149253/files Files page of our Canvas site] contains copies of the CVs and readings from our faculty guest speakers. Please review each guests' materials prior to their visit and '''submit topics and/or questions for guests via the corresponding [https://canvas.northwestern.edu/courses/149253/discussion_topics Canvas Discussion] the Monday of their visit''' (i.e., submit topics/questions on Monday 9/27 for the Wednesday 9/29 class session). ==== Final project ==== [[Introduction_to_Graduate_Research_(Fall_2021)/Final_project|Detailed description of final projects]] '''Final projects are due [https://canvas.northwestern.edu/courses/149253/assignments/981734 via Canvas] at 12pm (Central time) on December 8, 2021'''. [[Introduction_to_Graduate_Research_(Fall_2021)/Final_project|The final project]] for the course will be a 3,000-5,000 word written document consisting of two parts: (1) a strategic plan for your graduate school career and (2) a research plan for an empirical and/or design project you aim to conduct in the coming year+.
