Course-Based Research Assignment: Using Scholarly Political Communication Research (COMS 335)

Muddiman, Ashley

Abstract

In upper-division courses, I typically assign peer-reviewed academic journal articles rather than textbooks. Some students, however, have not encountered much writing like this before taking my class. Further, I assign an original research project, and the integration of peer-reviewed research into students’ writing has not always been strong in previous semesters. Thus, to address both of these concerns, I created a series of small assignments and activities designed to help students read, summarize, and write about academic research.

Description

This assignment was the product of a Research-Intensive Course Grant through KU’s Center for Undergraduate Research. These grants provide financial support and advising for instructors who want to incorporate larger research and creative projects into their classes.
