Business Development Plan

Your plan could be for a business start-up or to grow an existing venture.

Critically discuss how and when established banks can increase their financial performance by using online communities”.

“Critically discuss how and when established banks can increase their financial performance by using online communities”.

Your paper should go well beyond simply repeating contents covered in class (it is no exam). Instead, you should develop a strong line of arguments to support your case, engage with the extant academic literature, and reflect substantial independent and critical thinking.

The assessment criteria for the essay are (all criteria carry equal marks):

(1) Clarity and rigor—How clear are the aims and objectives of the research? Do the conclusions relate to these aims and objectives and contain evidence from the findings? Does the review of literature help to inform the way that the findings have been evaluated? Have relevant research methods been used to obtain the data?

(2) Critical analysis—What insights and reflections are drawn about the academic literature and from the research?

(3) Relevance and practicality—Has the issue been addressed? Is there a workable out-come?

(4) Originality—Has the research been carried out in a creative way? Have new ideas or new ways of exploring problems been used? What new concepts emerge from the work?

(5) Presentation—Is the essay or clearly structured, without formal flaws, typos and grammar mistakes?

Does the critical path actually ensure project success?

Each student will prepare a research paper discussing, in depth, a subject related to one of the topics covered in the course.

The paper should be from 2,000 to 3,000 words in length (8-12 pages) and contain a separate title or cover page and separate pages for the list of reference sources.

The paper is expected to be authoritative, and based on at least 10 high-quality sources (i.e., no Wikipedia, newspaper, or web page citations allowed).

Use the UMGC library to find relevant journal or respected trade publication articles for your report.

The majority of reference sources should be from recent publications no older than five years.

Follow the APA format for the paper and for all citations, figures, tables, and the list of references. You may include in your paper any of the articles assigned as readings, as well as any other reference sources encountered during the course.

The style and content appropriate for an academic literature review can be seen in most scholarly journals found in peer-reviewed literature.

Most articles will contain a section called, Literature Review. Look over a few to get a feel for the general style of writing expected.

The report should exhibit graduate-level writing, in terms of grammar, punctuation, format, quality of analysis, coherence, insight, logical flow, and reasoning.

The paper is NOT an essay, how to, or opinion piece, it is to be a research report based fully on facts and data derived from appropriate sources in the literature.

Provide a reference citation for EVERY statement of fact you include in your paper.

Do NOT string together direct quotes from reference sources to create a narrative in the report. More than three quotes within the paper will be too many.

Write in your own words and include quote marks for ALL material copied from other sources.

Remember, a literature review tells what other experts and researchers have discovered, NOT what you know or think. Save your own opinions about what all the facts mean for the conclusion of the review.

1. Title page and Abstract of the paper (Style according to the rules of the APA format.)

2. Final paper (Containing 8-12 pages, double spaced, 12 point font, one inch margins on all sides)

3. References – List of every reference source cited in the paper (and only cited sources), entered in correct APA format. At least 10 sources should be listed and cited within the report.
