                                                        Examining WRTG

A. Please respond with your contribution and ideas to the discussion below

In my memo, I will need to ask for permission to research and run studies on the other paralegals work; therefore, I can show that jargon is impacting the law firm. For my memo, it will be addressed to the partners in the law firm; to make an impact, I will start by trying to explain to the partners that my research is backed by several studies. For my memo to be impactful, I will need to provide several informational resources and studies that show that the use of jargon can lead to communication barriers and confusion.

A scholarly source is considered a journal, article, or website page to be written by someone who is involved in education or experts within their field. Scholarly sources are backed by studies and research that is recent and current. In addition, these types of sources are favored by many for the correctness of their research. However, a professional source is a source written by someone who is an expert in their field and written for other experts in their field. An example:

– The scholarly source is something we may read when we are conducting research on a new topic to us

– The professional source may be something we read from another expert that is in the same field as us; this gives us different viewpoints on something we already know.

The initial goal of the memo is to show the issue at hand, the second goal is to provide a report. The research report is based on the research that may be conducted after the initial memo, to further draw the people addressed in the memo into making a change in the business. Additional research demands could be not only finding why jargon is a downfall while communicating to clients, but also show the recommendations to fixing the issue of overusing jargon while communicating. When I present my report, I will not only keep the partners in mind, but also the future paralegals that will work at the law firm. The information behind the report will help show the partners and paralegals why the change is important, why the change was made, and why they should continue to adjust their communication for the clients.

Writing about the same topic in both assignments will help me set the initial foundation and then continue to build on it for the final assignment. Both steps are very crucial to making sure the topic is conveyed in the best way possible, it needs to be persuasive and informative.

 

 

 

 

B. Please respond with your contribution and ideas to the discussion below

Examine the Research Proposal Memo (WA#1) instructions. What permission must you request? To whom should your memo be addressed? What information about your research must you provide?  

After examining the Research Proposal Memo, you must request to conduct research based on the subject at hand. In this instance the paper focuses on Communication Techniques between Government agencies , therefore, the paper must request research on communication aspects and alternatives. The memo must be addressed to the specific organization you would want to inform on the topic at hand. Lastly, the information about research that must be provided is any information that would be supportive in your statements to add factual background information or evidence based research towards your argument. 

        2. Examine the Synthesis Lit Review (WA#2) instructions. This assignment calls for the student writer to use scholarly (academic) and professional (trade) sources. Explain what you understand a scholarly source and a professional/trade source to be. You should consider offering an example of each type of source. 

A scholarly source is information that is from an aspect of a school or university, this relies on people such as student articles or research findings from anyone in academic fields. An example of this would be typing a memo based on research that was done at a university. A trade/professional resource is information from a certain profession that does not tie within any certain field and is based on the research of the topic discussion. An example of this would be typing a paper based on a journalists research on the certain topic of discussion. 

          3. Take a look at the Research Report (WA#3) instructions. What additional research demands are placed upon the writer for this assignment compared to WA #2? How can you as writer best present your report so that it is most readily accessible for your primary audience? 

Research demands include, in text citations from the text as well as a reference list for the citations. Another research demand is that this paper uses certain measures such as “according to” or “in addition” to provide that this is coming from a article or book. The best way to present a report is that you can use a cover letter , have a subject header for each different discussion within the paper, as well as, ensuring that you provide a reference page for the cited reference material is used throughout the paper. 

          4.  Comment on how writing on the same topic for WA#2 and WA#3 assignments can help you as you write your research report.  

Writing on the same topic for both WA#2 and WA#3 assignments can help me as I write about my research report because I can use various reference material for the topic. This also allows me to engage within numerous different aspects of writing for each assignment which will enhance my writing skill for the research report.
