Research
Of great concern: It was found that there are major similarities of parts of your paper to that of a former student. Note the following, which is a screenshot from the other student's submission. An explanation of SWOT was not even necessary – but the fact that copied content was included in the submission is a breach of academic ethics.
This time it is a point penalty, but please make sure you do not access other student work to do your own – this could be a Code of Conduct issue and ultimately prevent graduation from the program if you continue the practice.

A Systems Analysis Career |
· One of your sources was to be the Bureau of Labor or the O*Net site and the other was to be an actual job advertisement. The job ad is missing. · Duties and requirements to get the job are explained without quoting from the sources, and the length met requirements. |

SWOT Analysis |
· The SWOT lists were rather good; there is indeed competition from others and the opportunity to market using technology (social media and website in particular) is valid. That being said, the large portion of this part containing plagiarism means that only some points can be given. |

Writing, Organization, and Formatting |
· Thanks for using subheadings. Keep working on "deductive" organization of paragraphs – state the purpose immediately and then give details. · The document had APA formatting errors: · The title (in all caps) and the page number are missing from the header · In the middle of the title page, there must be a blank line between the title and your name. If you include "Instructor name," use the name rather than leaving it blank (it is okay just to have title, blank line, your name, university name). · Make sure you have not accidentally hit the enter key in the middle of reference entries. |

Sourcing issues are below. Please make sure you use only APA 7th edition rules, and refer to the Citation/Referencing PDF found in each unit's Reading section.
· In-text citation:
· When doing research papers (or sections of papers based on research), no paragraph should be without citation.
· Schnetler is not alone – you must use (Schnetler et al., 2015).
· Reference entries:
· For journal articles, be more careful with how the numbers are presented. Example: if the volume is 2, the issue is 6, and the page numbers 3-10, it would be 2(6), 3-10.
· Do not precede single-digit numbers with a zero.
· Do not precede URLs with "at."
· If you include a DOI, it must be in web address format (http etc.)
· The Helmiatin and Susanty source is not cited and therefore is not allowed in the references.
