Content analysis procedures for study of communication messages. Focus groups and interviewing. We always subscribe to the University of Miami's student-generated Honor Code in this seminar. We take the traditions and rules of academic scholarship very seriously. Students are expected to do their own work.
Plagiarism is completely unacceptable.
Read it, understand it, summarize it, and cite it. All ideas and other material taken from other sources must be properly credited to that source using the normal types of journalistic attribution that you have learned this year. If a student has any concerns about this process, he or she should seek advice. Students found violating the Honor Code will be reported to the Honor Council and the director of Graduate Studies for the School of Communication for university disciplinary action. Students found submitting work in violation of the Honor Code will also fail this course.
