This is a doctoral-level research assignment designed to test your ability to conduct effective
research, gain a nuanced understanding of complex concepts, synthesize the ideas reflected in
your research with those reflected in your required readings, and to evaluate and apply these
ideas to an issue of urban planning.
As with all doctoral-level assignments, you are expected to comport yourself with the highest
writing, research, and ethical standards. To do well on this assignment, you must conduct high-
quality research and offer a rich, well-supported analysis; mere opinion or conjecture will not
suffice. A doctoral level course requires descriiption and analysis. While descriiptions certainly
are the precursor to analyses, they are not the analyses. Analysis is not just opinion statements, or
a list of what authors have said. Each idea needs elaboration and explanation and, if possible,
supported by data and/or credible sources. The analysis should demonstrate the ability to
integrate theories with applications.
You must avoid careless or simple grammatical errors such as misspellings, incomplete
sentences, comma splices, faulty noun/verb agreement, etc. Such errors will result in substantial
point deductions. No slang, idioms, jargon, colloquialisms, and everyday language. Your writing
must be scholarly.
Plagiarism in any form, including self-plagiarism, is strictly prohibited and may result in failure
of the assignment, failure of the course, and/or removal from the program. It is your
responsibility to ensure that you understand fully what constitutes the various forms of
plagiarism and to avoid all forms of plagiarism. Consult the 2020-2021 LUO Honor Code
