...because the internet is not just designed for research. Though it is fast and convenient there is no reliable assistance when you are confused. Anyone can put anything on the internet so if you just take everything for what it is there is a possibility to get not so credible information. Doing research on the internet as a student is very important and many students use this information for papers or other assignments. Without the ability of identifying credible a student runs the risk of basing an assignment around information that is misguided, disproven, or flat out untrue. This is why students should learn how to not only gather information but also evaluate it for accuracy and credibility. * * Describe three strategies that students can use to identify which search results are worth exploring when using the Internet to research a topic? There are quite a few strategies students can use to identify which search results are worth exploring. Firstly, looking at the URL is the most important strategy to me. Looking for ".org", ".gov", or ".edu" in the URL is very important. The website name is also important when doing research, remembering that sites like Wikipedia are not as credible as TheNationalGeographic.com, for example. Most things ending in “.com” may not be the most credible in all cases but there are a few. That is why you must also check the summary or description of the search results. Looking at the synopsis and examining the related searches listed is...

...Heidi was already in the commons when I arrived at 1pm and Abby arrived minutes later. We have not heard from Grace despite sending emails and text messages for the past week and a half. First thing we discussed was a brief synopsis of our books and how we felt our characters navigated our Erikson phase. Abby shared first about “The Phantom Tollbooth”, then Heidi over her novel “Wing Shooter”, and last I shared “Peace Like a River”. We each concluded that our characters had successfully managed to overcome their phase. After we each gave a thorough synopsis, we then put our heads together to decide how to organize our posters and workloads. We decided to organize the first board as a brief synopsis of our books and an identification/ description...

...Current Business Research Project Sharron Jones University of Phoenix Res/341 Jim Triplett June 13, 2011 Current Business Research Project This paper is a synopsis of a research study in price knowledge measurement scales used in the food and clothing retail industry. This paper will define and identify the business research, purpose of the study, problems under investigation, methods of data collection, and the ending result. The article this synopsis is based on is “On the Validity of Price Knowledge Measurements via self-assessment scales: two studies in retail” (Eberhardt, Kenning, & Schneider, 2009, p. 1). Business research is defined “as a systematic and organized effort to investigate a specific problem encountered in a work setting that needs a solution” (Sekaran, 2003, p. 5). The business research used in respect to price knowledge measurement includes addressing self-assessment versus percentage absolute deviation (PAD), and the retail branch of food versus clothes. The problem under investigation is determining the validity of scales used to measure consumer price knowledge used in marketing to influence market price and profit (Eberhardt et al., 2009, p. 1). Previous research is outdated and does not consider important factors such as brand power, or demographics, and was performed from the viewpoint of a researcher and not the consumer (Eberhardt et al., 2009, p. 2). The researchers performed separate studies in food and clothing retail in Germany...

...Current Business Research Paper June 20,2011 RES/341 Jack McNicholas Parent Drug Education This paper is a synopsis about an article of choice. The synopsis is will define the business research and the purpose of the article, any problems that may be under investigation, the methods used in collecting the data for the research and what was concluded as a result of the research. The article that was chosen is an article about parents and the education they have on drug use with younger children. It researches how parents can better communicate with younger people about drug use. Business Research and Purpose Parent drug education is very important part of drug prevention in young people. Effective communication can be a factor that protects drug misuse in young people. Business research is defined as a “systematic and organized effort to investigate a specific problem that may be encountered in the work setting, or that needs a solution” (Sekaran, U. 2003). Drugs use is most likely to not be openly talked about among parents and younger people. The purpose of this research was to help parents to find more ways to be able to communicate more successfully and productively with young people and to help communication be the key factor of any parent drug prevention (Shapiro, 1998). Data Collection Methods & Research Results The methods that were used to collect data were qualitative multi-methods. This method was used to establish parents (n=6) and young people...

Web. 3 Feb. 2016. History of Budgetary Expenditures of the Commodity Credit Corporation: Fiscal Year 1990-2000 Actual, April 9, 2001. Washington, D.C.: USDA Consolidated Farm Service Agency, 2001. Web. 3 Feb. 2016. Complainant Research Brazil & Canada v. United States Synopsis Starting in 2007 both Canada and Brazil started the process to officially bring a case against the United States with the World Trade Organization (WTO). Although Brazil and Canada brought different cases to the WTO, the complaints were ultimately the same. They felt the United States violated a WTO agreement to decrease spending on agricultural subsidies. In this synopsis Brazil and Canada’s case will be examined and supported. The basic principles of a free market are being ignored when the United States government gets overly involved with agricultural subsidies. The free market is built upon limited government involvement. This was the reason for the WTO agreement in the first place. Countries had to reduce the amount of trade distorting subsidies given to farmers. The United States has failed to decrease their subsidy spending below the levels agreed upon in the WTO agreement. The biggest argument made by both Brazil and Canada in this case comes down to the United States distorting the world market and...

...language. This is the main difference between the two. An executive summary should necessarily have a conclusion. On the other hand a conclusion is not necessary while writing a summary of a play or any scene of a play. An executive summary should ultimately make a business recommendation. No such intention is included in the writing of a summary. An executive summary should contain short and concise paragraphs. On the other hand a summary need not have short and concise paragraphs. On the contrary it can have long paragraphs too. A summary aims at presenting the salient points of any given essay. It is a shorter form of a longer essay. These are the differences between the two terms, namely, a summary and an executive summary. Summary vs Synopsis Writing a summary is a skill that is taught early to students. It is to write a short, condensed version of a...
