    Case Study Requirements

    Each case is worth 5% of course grade.

    The following are the minimum case study requirements:

    Each case study MUST consist of at least four pages (no more than five).

    Cover page (one page) – A 10 point penalty will be deducted from the case study grade if any of the following information is not included:

    · Your name (Please don’t make me guess your identity)

    · Date

    · Name of course

    · The case study name

    Then write your paper in complete sentences in third person voice using a narrative writing style.

    NOTE: This is a written business case study. Therefore, proper spelling, punctuation, capitalization, etc. are REQUIRED. This is not a series of text or Twitter messages!

    Content Pages (2-3 pages: a minimum of 750 words but no more than 1000 words of content).

    Fully answer the questions at the end of the case in a report format. You may provide section headings for each question, but do not number and just answer each question separately. Please make sure to use sources for your information.

    Any references (and you should use at least three different references) should be done in APA format.
