Introduction to research manuscript

Introduction to Research Manuscript

The most heavily weighted assignment for this course is your completion of a research manuscript, that is due at the beginning of Module 9. This document is not to be completed with intentions for using it as a potential capstone proposal or thesis prospectus. Rather, the research manuscript will bring together key elements of this course. The research manuscript will provide you with experience in research design, format and content similar to what is expected for a peer-reviewed publicaiton. Identification and study of the topic chosen, and research problem investigated, may place you in a very advantageous situation moving forward.

This course adopts the standard writing guidelines for the American Psychological Association and formats for publication. These are standing guidelines adopted by the College of Aeronautics and you should be (or become) quite familiar with these guidelines. Each module includes reading and constructive assignments for writing a proposal using the APA Manual. Each module will have an associated activity for you to complete that addresses a part of the manuscript process. You are strongly encouraged to become acquainted with the organization and topics contained in the required textbook Writing in Psychology.

To begin, post your initial thinking on a research area or subject you intend to use as a focus for your academic inquiry to complete your research manuscript for the course. It is not necessary to have a research question yet, however, you should be targeting a particular problem or topic to develop your research. Summarize this in one or two paragraphs. 

I would like to use the subject of using “Bio-fuel/alternative fuel in commercial/military jets”…

Do you remember you wrote my final paper, you mentioned something about development alternative jet fuels…..? can we go in depth with this subject…
