Article Summaries

 

 

The purpose of the article summaries is to bring "real world" examples to the classroom. The example must relate to the subjects or chapters discussed in the class in a direct or indirect way.

 

The summaries must be spell checked and typed. They must be turned-in in a professional manner. No whiteout or marks on the papers. The summaries must be attached to a copy of the article (stapled) with name and class name and section (MW, T TH etc.) on the front page.

 

Summaries:

 

Pick an article from the Wall Street Journal online or paper, Business Week online or paper, or search the Internet for business periodicals.

 

Summarize the main points of the article; relate the article to the subjects discussed in class.

 

Provide an educated opinion and reflection on the article, stating what you have gathered from the article and the reasons you chose the article. I am interested in what you learned from the article.

 

Summaries can be 1-2 pages. Provide effective not lengthy summaries. Keep it simple, short and to the point.

 

Email option: You can email your article as WORD attachment to my email molatte4u@hotmail.com. Your summary must be an attachment with URL (web address) for the article itself included in the email. You must provide name, class and section in your email.

The email articles must be received prior to the class period that the assignment is due. You will receive your grade via email.

 

If you have any questions or need further details, don’t hesitate to contact or see me.

 

Good Luck
