Now that you have completed your career profile and have an idea what career under the Kinesiology umbrella you might be interested in choosing, this assignment will help you understand the type of education and training you will need to complete for your chosen career.
Note: Papers not in APA format will not be graded. Please review the information and tutorial in the APA guidelines folder in the orientation module for specifics.
What you need to include in your paper:
First, please review the grading rubric so you understand how you will be graded.
Write a 800-1000 word paper in APA format with appropriate level 1 section headings, APA cover page, APA reference page, double spaced, etc. Be mindful of grammar, vocabulary, spelling and punctuation. No Abstract.
An “A” paper goes above and beyond merely reporting information. Adequate explanation is expected.
Paper must include at least 4 primary research sources.
Start with a basic google search to locate websites or sources of information, then expand to other databases like our DVC library or you can use Google Scholar, however this search option can be a bit challenging and difficult to use effectively.
AI Policy
For papers in this course, please edit, revise, and fact check any content that is AI-generated. Double check all citations AI provides and check any dates or facts it gives you, as these are often made up (this is called “hallucinationLinks to an external site.”). You also need to provide a full citation of any AI-generated content by putting quotation marks around it and providing an in-text citation (here is how you cite AI-generated contentLinks to an external site.). If you’re ever feeling uncertain about how to cite AI, err on the side of caution and explain how you used it directly in your paper. You could say things like… when prompted with the question, “x” ChatGPT claimed, “quote AI-generated content here” (ChatGPT). AI tools, like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google Bard, etc. can be a very useful part of our writing process. They can help us brainstorm, organize our ideas, and provide support for grammar and syntax. However, presenting AI generated content as your own is considered plagiarism. Any use of AI to develop or generate ideas needs to include a direct citationLinks to an external site., just as you would include for other outside sources. You are more than welcome to utilize AI as a tool that is part of your learning process, not as a way to produce first and only drafts (i.e. putting an assignment prompt into ChatGPT, and submitting the work that is generated as your paper– that is plagiarism). If you’re concerned about accidentally plagiarizing something, please reach out to me! I want to you help you understand how to cite things!
