Research Report: Outline Assignment Instructions
Overview
Based on the topic used in your Research Report: Introduction and Literature Review Assignment, develop a topical outline for a quantitative, qualitative, or mixed methods proposal. Using Creswell and Creswell, along with Edlund et al., prepare a topic outline that will provide a foundation for future research. As doctoral students, your assignments are expected to follow the principles of high-quality scientific standards and promote knowledge and understanding in the field of public administration. You should apply a rigorous and critical assessment of a body of theory and empirical research, articulating what is known about the phenomenon and ways to advance research about the topic under review. Research syntheses should identify significant variables, a systematic and replication strategy, and a clear framework for studies included in the larger analysis.
Instructions
This assignment will give you the opportunity to create an outline using your Introduction and Literature Review sections and synthesize those components into the methodology of a research study, e.g., ethics, methods, analysis, instruments, etc. This 20-to-30-page outline will include important components of research paper plan. Below are the format requirements:
· Length of assignment (20 to 30 pages)
· Not including the reference section.
· Format of assignment (APA most recent edition).
· Number of citations – At least 25 references should be included.
· Acceptable sources (e.g. scholarly peer-reviewed articles)
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
