To assist in the synthesis of the course, a summary term paper is required. You will select one public company to research and write about.
I chose to have my paper be over the Fossil brand (they make purses, watches, etc.).

There is a lot of information available on public companies including the company’s website, the Wall Street Journal, Dallas Morning News (if local), etc. Also, the UNT Library Online provides access to books, online articles, databases, and e-Journals that will help you in your research (http://www.library.unt.edu/). If you have a personal connection at the company, you could even interview a manager to get additional information.

Research the company’s mission, their competitors/external environment, company strengths and weaknesses, company management style, motivation tools used by their managers, the company’s culture, the company’s goals, and any challenges the company faces (competition, growth, etc.) You will then summarize the trends you observe in the term paper.

The submission will consist of a cover page, plus four to eight pages manuscript, plus works cited along with appropriate appendix materials (see below). You will utilize normal character and line spacing (1.1), 12 point Arial font, 1” margins, ¼” Indentions, and APA within the document parenthetical citations i.e. (Williams, 2013).
Remember, the cover page is NOT included in the page count. Paragraph headings should be used to provide the reader with transitions in thought. It is also a good idea to check for spelling and grammar issues. The manuscript should include the following sections:

An argument is the logical and systematic presentation of reasons to
support your thesis. Your essay is to be an argumentative paper, not a research paper.) You may judiciously use
block quotes in your final essay. The use of sources in the assignment is to be documented according to MLA,
APA, or Chicago style.
You are encouraged to use any of the assigned readings that might help you make your case. Your grade will be
based on your demonstrated understanding of all of the course readings, themes, and lectures, as well as on the
relevance, accuracy, and quality of your writing. This is your opportunity to work with and develop your own
ideas. But you should do so in a way that shows your grasp of the different texts we have examined throughout
the semester .
Write an essay one of the following prompts.

The authors of Infinite Reality make several strong claims about the potentials of virtual reality. One
of the strongest claims is that virtual reality will allow an unprecedented degree of control over experience,
especially identity formation. (Think of the last short paper you wrote.) And yet, Andy Clark asserts that the “I”
(the soul, the mind) is wholly integrated with, is an inextricable part of its surroundings and setting (recall the
image of a mangrove swamp), which means that the physical body is (and remains) integral to the formation of
the “I.” What do you think? Whose account of subjective experience (or of identity formation, although identity
formation and subjective experience are not synonyms) do you think is more persuasive and defensible?
