Katherine Schuler at Boxes & Bins HBP Case
The student will write a thorough essay(1000 to 1250 words excluding cover page, abstract, and references) that answer all questions applying to the case and provided by the author or instructor. Do not submit either as a numbered Q &A or as a bulleted list of data submission but rather as a completed written paper. Include properly formatted cover, abstract, and reference pages with your Case Studies. A minimum of four high quality academic sources in addition to your textbook(if relevant) are required.
Submit as an attachment in proper APA format (APA 7th Edition) as a Microsoft® Word document only with proper grammar, spelling, citations, cover and reference pages. Note that the instructor does not recognize Wikipedia as a quality reference source for academic submissions due to the editable nature of the material found there that raises concerns about veracity and validity of content. Do not cite Wikipedia (any other “pedias” including encyclopedias) or other non-academic sources such as dictionaries, blogs, Prezi’s, CourseHero, MBA Tutor, etc., and most “.com” in your references for the Case Study assignments. A word on “quality academic sources” is in order here. Peer reviewed (you can set this as a parameter of your search in the GBC Databases) studies, reports, journal articles, conference papers and presentations are the preferred sources.
