I’m studying for my Political Science class and need an explanation.
I have two readings: Reading one comes from the following: Rosenbloom, D.H. (2015). Administrative Law for Public Managers. 2
nd Edition. Boulder, CO:
Westview Press. ISBN-13: 9780813348810.. I have rented the book but it hasnt came in yet. With that being said, you can start on the second reading which will be attached. Once the book comes in, I will upload the book. If I haven’t upload by Friday, please remind me to do so.
Additional Instructions:
The memo should be
approximately 5 to 6 pages long, and must include a summary of the main points of the
reading, your thoughts about the reading, and 4 discussion questions.
Please note that this assignment also requires you to lead the online discussion for the
week. As the discussion leader, you should respond to questions from your group mates,
add additional commentary to keep the discussion going, etc.
All assignments for this class will require APA formatting for submission. Additionally, the same format will be utilized across all
assignments:
Times New Roman Font – Size 12
Double Spaced
1” Margins
Cover Sheet containing:
o Assignment Title
o Your Name
o ULM CID
o Due Date of Assignment
o Course Name (POLS) o Instructor Name
In-text citations and Reference Page listings using proper APA format.
Discussion Leader Memo, which contains at least four questions for group discussion at the end of the memo, are due by Sunday at 5pm. Questions should not be questions out of the book. You should create your own question. If the answers to the question can be found in the book please provide the page, answer, and which book where you got the answer. If the questions are authentically created, please provide me with the question and answer for the assignment.
From a content stand point, while it will be important for you to summarize the key concepts and ideas conveyed in the articles, it is perhaps more important (I can’t stress this enough…more important) to discuss what is not contained within the readings or where further explanation is needed to drive home the concepts contained in the readings. A summary is a summary no matter how you slice it, but dedicating a page or two towards critical analysis, insight, and potential avenues of exploration concerning the topic are what makes a sufficient memo stand apart from an exceptional memo!
The memo and questions are due by 5pm Sunday, however, I will have the time extended so that I can provide you with any question the class or instructor may ask me. When they respond to the writing, I will send the response to you so that you can provide me with the information to give back to them.
