Instructions

You are to use the feedback from the Research Project: Annotated Bibliography Assignment, Research Project: Outline Assignment, and Research Project: Draft Assignment, and incorporate them into your final paper. The final paper should include the following:

Format

· Minimum of 10-12 pages, double-spaced, not including title and reference pages

· Times New Roman, 12-point font (any of the fonts required for APA 7th edition)

· Left-justified only with 1 1/2-inch margins on the left side

· One-inch margins on the top, right, and bottom

· Current APA format (7th edition)

· Numbered pages

· Minimum of 10 scholarly articles from peer-reviewed journals. Must be less than 10 years old (these are the references used from for the Annotated Bibliography)

· Use block quotations for more than 40 words:

· Single-spaced with a double space separating quote

· Indented 5 spaces from left margin

· No quotation marks

· Reference page in current APA format (7th edition) including active URL links (not included in page total)

Content

· Running head and page number (right aligned) (Professional paper)

· Course number and name

· Case name

· Your Name

· Date submitted

· “Respectfully submitted to: (Instructor’s Name)”

· Abstract (left justified)

· Content of your topic and/or paper (review the associated grading rubric)

· Concepts from the textbook that are related to your topic, including page numbers where the concepts may be found. Credit will only be earned for concepts supported by text page numbers (essentially, this is accomplished through integration of the relevant course content using properly formatted, current APA citations).

· Use current APA in-text citations to credit sources listed in the reference list as needed

· Conclusion

· References

Plagiarism

Plagiarism will not be tolerated. Plagiarism commonly occurs when the student utilizes an author’s words and does not properly attribute the source. All sources must be referenced. Do not cut and paste or copy unless you are directly quoting a reference. Purchasing papers of any form will result in automatic failure for the course and a recommendation for expulsion.
