Research Policy: As the research paper/project is a requirement of the course, all components must be completed. Failure to complete even one assignment related to the research paper/project will result in a failing grade for the nine weeks marking period. Also, the student will not receive credit for the course until all assignments are completed as per the teacher’s specifications. In addition, students must avoid plagiarism or cheating, which will result in a failing grade for the paper. Plagiarism includes using others’ words or ideas without giving credit (appropriate citation). Cheating includes working cooperatively on any part of the assignment (unless instructed by teacher) or sharing research, outlines, drafts, note cards, bibliography cards, or final written copies with any other student. The guidance counselor, parent, and principal will be notified of incomplete work, plagiarism, or cheating infractions.
