Final Project

There are two options for the final project available to you. The final project is worth 200 points.

Option 1 – Essay

Your final essay must cover one of the final project topics per the instructions listed below, should be a minimum of 5 pages in addition to the title page, abstract page, and references page, with the formatting of double-spaced 12 point Times New Roman font, contain a minimum of 5 references, and adhere to APA style.

Option 2 – Recorded Video Presentation

Your recorded video presentation must cover one of the final project topics per the instructions listed below, must include a PowerPoint presentation or similar graphic presentation that you personally present and narrate, contain a minimum of 5 references, be a minimum of 5 minutes but no longer than 10 minutes in duration, and recorded using Zoom (Links to an external site.), Prezi (Links to an external site.) or another cloud-based system. Please Note: You must present your topic in a conversational way and not simply read the slides as you advance through them. The slides are merely a guide for your presentation. This is a research project, so you must include references and refer back to them.

Final Project Topics

Choose from one of the following topics. Using the information presented in the textbook as a starting point, conduct research on your chosen topic and discuss what you discover. Incorporate personal experiences to support your claims.

P. 98-102: Creativity in the Workplace: The Nature of Creativity

P. 243-254: Leadership Behaviors and Styles

Submitting the Final Project

Essay: Upload the document to the classroom. Once uploaded, be sure to go back into the assignment and view what you have uploaded to ensure that you uploaded the correct document and to check formatting. Re-upload as necessary. Late and/or emailed essays will not be accepted.

Recorded Video Presentation: Record your video to the cloud. Paste the link for the video into a document and upload to the classroom. Once uploaded, be sure to go back into the assignment and view what you have uploaded to ensure the link displays correctly and works. Important: Record the video to Zoom, (Links to an external site.) Prezi (Links to an external site.) or other cloud system. Do not record to your computer and attempt to upload the video to the classroom. Additionally, once your video is recorded it can take several hours for the recording to be processed (especially when using Zoom during peak hours), so plan accordingly. Prior to submitting the link to the classroom, you must verify that the link works. I suggest emailing it to yourself or someone else. I suggest watching the video in its entirety to ensure there are no technical issues, and to assess for clarity. Video links that do not work cannot be graded. Late submissions will not be accepted.

I look forward to viewing your presentations and essays!
