What is the purpose of journals and professional papers?

Answer 1

Professional papers: Used and written for communication between two companies or within the same company so that research isn't repeated unless nessicary, and so that mistakes can be made clear, and so that everyone understands policiy and many other reasons in almost all fields.

Journals: Used to keep yourself up to date mostly and keep your work organized and clearly defined in case someone else were to pick it up, its not as demanding to be as literately impressive, but expected to be clear. They are used in the study of many different things and used in quality assurance, research and many other science fields-and most everything is a science in one form or another. If you were required to study a grasshopper for example (you could say a toaster or anything else) and remember all the qualties such as color variation, parts, movement, behaviors, specialties like exoskelton thickness, ect. You would have to write it all down and keep it organized.

What I can't understand is how all these questions that pop up on this sight are the same questions that are online at the Axia College of University of Phoenix. Isn't that considered plagarizm? I mean people ask these questions, they get the answer and use that same answer for DQ question assignments. The way I see it, it isn't right that students should do this when students like myself actually think about the answers, and the students that cheat get away with it.

But in the long run these students really are only fooling themselves and they don't learn a darn thing.

Answer 2

Professional papers are informative. They track company sales. They explain new processes. They educate others.
