You will be identifying and coming up with comparison points of the articles. To do this prepare a full page table or chart of your own design with these mandatory categories:

You may add additional categories, but limit your content to fit on one page in a chart format.

Your reference list must have an APA heading and list 8 journals including the 2 pre-selected provided journal and periodical, for a total of 10 references (alpha by author).
SECTION 3 – page 3
RESEARCH PAPER OUTLINE
Create a basic outline of your research paper. See page 96-97 in Writing Great Research Papers. Your basic outline content should be based on the 2 pre-selected articles, the Guide to Managerial Communication textbook and the 2 additional articles your read and listed in your reference section. Your outline should look similar to the example following page 167: Chapter 21 (model papers, page 1) in Writing Great Research Papers.
SECTION 4 – page 4
COMPANY EMPLOYEE NEWSLETTER
Create a one page newsletter by modifying the provided template.Link (Links to an external site.)
https://templates.office.com/en-US/Weekly-newsletter-TM33875558 (Links to an external site.)
Your topic will be Nonverbal Communication in the Workplace. The content needs to be derived and paraphrased from the 2 articles with the links provided above and you may also paraphrase the textbook. Use APA for citations, paraphrase/cite any information that is not your own original thought and words. You may use any font that is appropriate for your newsletter. Create your newsletter article name. Write content that will fit on the one page template. Consider that your first sentence should grab the audience attention and make them want to read the content. Your content should summarize the topic from the information in the articles you read, but make sure you are adding your own original insight and writer’s voice while gearing the information as something your employees can use. No reference section is needed as your references are already in section 2 (note from the attached rubric: all information needs to be paraphrased & cited unless your own original content).
