Week 6 Assignment

Describe what this will be about. Two or three sentences would probably suffice

Narrative Statement

Introduce material here… Explain in detail about your narrative statement of your position on an issue. This is generally one paragraph. The easiest way to explain this section is to think of it like an abstract or introduction. This section, if written properly, can actually act as the abstract for this paper. It will, in a sense, set up the rest of the paper, which is the review of the case, analysis, recommendations, and the summary and conclusions sections.

Other Ways the Information Could be Structured

See how many ways the information could be structured into a case, using the various sequences provided in the textbook; Chain of reasoning, problem solution, criteria, and/or comparative advantages. Use those which can be related to your narrative statement of your position on an issue.

Chain of Reasoning

Note: I do not want to see heading written as questions or you asking questions within the paper.

Problem Solution

Note: I do not want to see heading written as questions or you asking questions within the paper.

Criteria

Note: I do not want to see heading written as questions or you asking questions within the paper.

Comparative Advantages

Note: I do not want to see heading written as questions or you asking questions within the paper.

Summary and Conclusions

This section will tie together all sources used for this case study, conclusions drawn from the reading and any inconsistencies. This section will generally be one to two paragraphs. Notice the paper has a continuous flow; there are no page breaks between sections. The only page breaks occur between the title page and the introduction and the summary/conclusions and the reference page. All references for the case study must appear on a separate page (see the following page for an example). The textbook(s) plus two peer-reviewed sources are expected.
