BMGT8002 WSJ SEARCH RESOURCES Discussion 2 Unit 3 Week 3

WSJ Search Resources

The majority of learners pursuing a business degree are likely familiar with the Wall Street Journal (WSJ). The WSJ has long been one of the most recognized and reputable secondary sources of business news and information, and has been in existence since 1889. Given the doctoral requirement of using scholarly sources in your writing you will not be able to cite and reference the WSJ directly, but you can use it to identify a current business issue that has not been studied in a scholarly manner, and you might find access to the WSJ data pools that WSJ has accumulated. Even with this you will need to critically scrutinize the sources and data to judge their viability for your purposes.

Capella has a unique partnership with the WSJ, whereby business faculty and learners receive no-cost digital access to WSJ.com, allowing the daily content to be accessed from a wide range of electronic devices. This is a great opportunity to receive the WSJ free of charge.

Activity Instructions

For this learning activity, go to the Wall Street Journal Home page on Capella University Campus (linked in the Resources). Examine the content about what Capella business learners have available via the WSJ partnership. If you have not done so yet, create your WSJ account (there is material on Campus to help do that). Access WSJ.com through your account, and review the layout and content of the information available on a daily basis.
