Urgent Research Proposal Paper

Each student will be required to complete the term project, which is a research proposal written in an APA Style. The project should be about 8 double spaced pages, not counting the cover and reference page or annotated bibliography/appendix. Don't forget to include a Cover Page, an abstract and a list of references. The research proposal you write in this course will NOT be sent to the IRB for approval. This is because you will not be conducting actual research for the purposes of this class. You will however gain an insight as to how to write a research proposal.

Each student will be required to complete a research proposal, as the term project. The research proposal will include the following:

• Title page
• Abstract (100-120 words)
• Introduction
• Hypothesis/Problem Statement/Purpose Statement
• Definitions included in research
• Literature Review organized around variables.
• Research methods/design (this can be a proposal to collect original research or a proposal to organize and categorize secondary data into your own variables)
• References/Works Cited
• Appendices - as needed (annotated bibliography, example consent form, example survey if used)

The research proposal (Term Project) must be in a Word Document (.doc) uploaded to the assignment section. Students will be required to use at least five scholarly references in their work.

Students are required to follow APA Style guidelines.
 

Please make sure that you are using the course-writing rubric to use as a checklist so that you write a solid paper.

Do not include quotes in your work. The student needs to display good critical thinking skills and not a string of quotes written by published authors. Your proposal is what is needed for a successful research project to be conducted in the future.
** I have already chosen a topic and sources so the paper must be something about Cyber Crime Punishment. I have added the sources that need to be used as well**
