=== Final project: Original research project === Graduate students in the course will be required to complete an original research project. This project may take the form of (1) a detailed research plan/proposal; (2) a replication/revisit of an important and influential study; (3) a completed original research manuscript (i.e., a "submission-ready" draft of a journal article or conference paper). Please note that you are also required to submit an abstract/proposal for the project and you must submit a new abstract/proposal at least two weeks before the project due date if you want to change the topic/direction substantially. : Project abstract/proposal due: February 23 ('''[https://canvas.northwestern.edu/courses/160351/assignments/1004978 submit via Canvas]''') : Completed project due: March 16 ('''[https://canvas.northwestern.edu/courses/160351/assignments/1004979 submit via Canvas]''') ==== Abstract/proposal details ==== '''Final project abstracts/proposals are due [https://canvas.northwestern.edu/courses/160351/assignments/1004978 February 23, 2022 via Canvas].''' Please submit a brief abstract/proposal describing your plans for your final project. The abstract/proposal should be about 500 words long, although you may submit more or less if you like. Please be sure to provide enough information so that someone unfamiliar with your project (like me) can understand what you plan to work on and what sort of final submission you expect to produce (in about 3 weeks). Also, please note if there are any dependencies or resources you need for the project that you do not yet have and that might prevent you from producing the final submission as you envision it. Also, please note that I will ask every member of the class to provide feedback on two colleagues' abstracts. These peer review assignments will be made via Canvas on February 24. Peer reviews should be completed within 72 hours if possible and no later than February 28. ==== Project details ==== '''Final projects are due [https://canvas.northwestern.edu/courses/160351/assignments/1004979 March 16, 2022 via Canvas].''' The final project for the course should consist of original research work that you conduct/lead. The specific scope/content of the final project may vary depending on whether you pursue a (1) detailed research plan; (2) replication/revisit; (3) submission-ready manuscript; or something else. In general, I ask that you limit your submissions to no more than 6,000 words. Please contact me if you would like examples of either detailed research plans or replication reports. I am flexible about how you format your work, but recommend you adopt an existing manuscript style that corresponds to the norms of a scholarly journal or conference where you might aim to publish your work. Please use a standard format that is readable, visually appealing, and straightforward. Two standard formats (with widely available templates) you might consider are the [https://dl.acm.org/journal/pacmhci/submission-templates PACMHCI format] (in use in several ACM Conferences these days) or [https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_style_introduction.html APA style (from 7th edition of the APA Publication Manual)] (in use in several ICA-affiliated journals). Standard reference formats (APA, Chicago, ASA, PACM/HCI, IEEE) are absolutely necessary.
