Term-Paper: Research Article Summary Paper
YOU are responsible for reading and understanding these instructions. If you turn in an assignment that
does not follow these instructions, your grade will reflect it. You cannot say I didn’t warn you.
Deadlines:
1. Article Selection: Saturday, September 9.
2. Rough Draft (Optional): Saturday, November 11.
3. Final Project: Saturday, November 18.
The purpose of this assignment is to have you explore the type of scholarly research being done by geographers
in Europe. The project will give you an understanding of the breadth and depth of research that geographers do,
point out important issues in the region that are the subject of academic research, and give you insights on how
geographers conduct research and present that research. This assignment requires you to focus on articles in peerreviewed, scholarly journals rather than popular media. There are several things that distinguish scholarly articles
from other types of writing. Firstly, these articles are peer-reviewed; meaning that they have been judged by up
to four other scholars working on similar topics for their accuracy and merit before being published. Scholarly
articles are also fully cited so that another researcher can prove the validity of the arguments by looking at the
same sources. Thirdly, while popular media articles generally stand alone as a report on something, peer-reviewed
scholarly articles represent ongoing conversations among scholars to advance our knowledge about the world –
in this case, the geography of Europe.
Technical Aspects: Your paper must conform to the following formatting: 12-point font (Arial, Times New
Roman, Garamond, or Book Antiqua), one-inch margins all around, double-spaced, and number the pages. Any
paper that does not follow the technical aspects will receive a 10-point discount in the final grade for this
assignment.
•
Selecting an Article (DUE by Saturday, September 9): The first step in completing this assignment is
finding an article. The article you use must comply with the overall assignment – it must be a geography
article, the research must be “located” in the European Region, it must be a full-length, research article
(not book reviews, commentaries, op-eds, editorial, country reports, or special issue entries), and it must
be from one of the peer reviewed geography journals listed below.
•
The articles must also be published in the year 2000 or later. Only one person will be allowed to review
an article, so it is a good idea to pick out a few that interests you. Here’s how to submit them: to submit
your article preferences you will have to send the Instructor of the course a message with a list of three
articles you have picked out in order of preference – your list should consist of full citations for the articles
selected (Including: author/s last name/s, first name/s, year of publication, title of article, journal where it
was published, volume, number, page numbers). You should also attach the PDFs for the articles to your
message. Please note that the Blackboard online messaging system only allows you to attach one file per
message, so you will have to submit three separate messages including a full reference in each one (and
the electronic copy of your selections in PDF format attached to each message). If you fail to submit an
appropriate article by the due date you will lose 10% of your final grade for this task, and I will assign an
article to you – I can’t promise it will be interesting or easy to read. A list with the assign articles will be
posted on Week # 5 of the semester.
•
When submitting your three articles of choice, please use the following format to cite them, and include
them in the text of your message:
o Articles written by one author:
Shubin, S. 2010. Cultural exclusion and rural poverty in Ireland and Russia. Transactions
of the Institute of British Geographers, New Series, 35(4): 555-570.
o Articles written by two authors:
Clark, J. and A. Jones. 2012. After ‘the collapse’: Strategic selectivity, Icelandic state
elites and the management of European Union accession. Political Geography, 31(2): 64–
72.
o Articles written by three or more authors:
Clark D.B., Doel, M.A. and F.X. Mcdonough. 1996. Holocaust topologies: Singularity,

published in the selected journal. Once in the webpage of the journal you should conduct a search of a
European location that may be of interest to you using the appropriate key word.
The Analysis Paper/Final Project (DUE by Saturday, November 18): For the paper, you will need to follow
the format given below in analyzing and summarizing the components of the research article about which you are
writing. Remember that you are only using ONE article in the part of the project. In completing the following
format, you will need to read each section of the article you are using very carefully, possibly more than once.
Your paper should be at-least 6 pages in length (not including the Cover Page), you must follow the formatting
procedure listed above, and you must submit your paper to the plagiarism detection website Turnitin.com using
the class webpage by the due date (instructions for submitting it to Turnitin.com will be provided). Note that
plagiarism will not be tolerated. If this or any other course assignment is plagiarized, you will earn an
automatic failure grade in the course.
Follow the format carefully. When you write your paper, divide it into clearly labeled sections using the headings
below. In each section, be sure to address the questions fully. Any paper that does not include the required
labels/titles will receive a 10-point discount in the final grade for this assignment.
I.
Cover Page: Title of the Article, Author(s) of the Article, Publication Date, Publication Source
(Journal, Volume & Number), Your Name, GEA 3500, Fall 2017, Date Submitted
II.
Introduction
How does the author introduce the article (for example, do they tell a story to situate the topic, or do
they discuss other research, a media report, an event)? How does the introduction frame the coming
discussion and argument?
III.
Argument
What argument(s) does the author make in the paper (for example, are they saying that some topic
hasn’t been studied (enough); or, are they saying that if we study some particular issue/case it will
change (or reaffirm) how we think about some conception; or, are they saying that if we bring in a
different conception it will change the way we think about a particular issue/case)?
IV.
Structure of the Paper
How does the author go about making the argument in the paper? What order do they present the
information? How do they layout the article? What sections are in the article, and what points do they
make in each one? How do the sections build up to the overall argument?
V.
Literatures
In what literatures (both theoretical and topical) does the author situate their work? What works do
they cite, and how do they conceive what they are citing? Note: Not every paper will have a specific
section dedicated to literature review – they may be embedded in various sections of the paper.
VI.
Methodology
How did the author go about collecting that information (data) used to support their argument? Did
they use interviews (who, with and how many), participant observation (where and how long),
document analysis (historical documents, newspaper accounts, policy papers, etc.), or statistical data
(gather by the author or some other entity) to name a few? How is the data presented: is it woven into
the text of the article, or is it presented in some graphic form (maps, charts, graphs, photos)? How
well does the data support the argument that the author is making?
VII. Conclusion
How does the author summarize their argument(s) one last time? Do they hint at broader implications
of their work beyond the focus of this article? Do they make a call for more research in a certain area?
VIII. Bibliography
How many sources does the article cite and what types of sources are cited? How many of the sources
are books? How many are research articles? How many are other types of documents (popular media
reports – newspaper or magazine articles, government documents, planning documents, etc.)? How
many are internet sources? Does the author cite Wikipedia?
IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT PLAGIARIZE ANY PART OF THIS PAPER OR YOU WILL RECEIVE
A ZERO FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT.

article’s author(s) you should ALWAYS put quotations marks around it and give the page number where it can
be found. No more than 10% of your paper should be quotations. If you quote too much, you will lose points.
Be sure to read the instructions carefully, and follow them diligently. Finally, please note that LATE WORK
