The purpose of this final draft is to finish the paper you have been working on throughout the course by adding a

conclusion and an abstract.

Description:

In this assignment, you will assemble the final draft of your Research Paper you have been working on throughout the

course. Your Research Paper Final Draft should include the elements listed below.

Elements:

The grade of your Research Paper Final Draft is largely based on your inclusion of these elements and the overall quality

of your writing. Your paper must contain the following elements.

1. Cover page and APA formatting:

You should include an APA-style cover page for your Research Paper. See the example on page 16 of The CSU

APA Guide (6th edition). Your cover page should include the following: the title of your paper, your name, and the

name of your university (Columbia Southern University). The running head should include up to 50 characters from

the title of the paper, along with a sequential page number in the upper right-hand corner.

2. Abstract:

The abstract is a 150-250 word summary of your Research Paper, and it should be written only after you have

finished writing the entire paper because how your abstract is worded largely depends on the development of your

paper. Your abstract should be accurate, self-contained, concise and specific, non-evaluative, coherent, and

readable. Your abstract may be modeled after the theoretical paper model or empirical study model. For

information or an example of an abstract, see p. 12 of The CSU APA Guide (6th edition) and p. 511 of Strategies for

Writing Successful Research Papers. Note that the abstract presented references MLA, but yours should be in

EH 1020, English Composition II 14

APA style. The abstract should be the second page in the paper, after the cover page, and the abstract should be

on its own page. The text of the paper itself should begin on page 3. Your abstract must meet the following

standards:

 Be 150-250 words

 Be located on the second page of your final draft

 Have a heading of Abstract that is centered at the top of the page.

3. Introduction:

There are some pitfalls to writing an introductory paragraph, and you can avoid some of them by reading through

the Checklist: “Avoid Certain Mistakes in the Introduction” on p. 495 of Strategies for Writing Successful Research

Papers.

4. Review of literature:

The review of literature should be a smooth transition from the introduction of your paper and should present a

controlled summary of the conversation surrounding your topic.

5. Body paragraphs:

Each paragraph of the body of your Research Paper should be a cohesive unit. It should be tight, but developed. It

should serve a function, and its purpose should always be to bolster the thesis. Therefore, you should use the

following order for each paragraph in the body.

a. Topic sentence: This sentence summarizes the entire paragraph in one strong, well-written sentence, and it

directly supports the thesis statement.

b. Explanation of topic sentence (1-2 sentences): Often times there is more to be said about the topic sentence,

more explanation that is necessary in order for it to be a clear idea, so there are usually a few sentences that follow

the topic sentence that explicate the idea more for the reader. These sentences not only “unpack” the topic

sentence, but they also anticipate the evidence that will be used to support the topic sentence, usually indirectly.

c. Introduction to evidence (1-2 sentences): No piece of evidence (quotation, example, paraphrase, etc.) should be

dropped into a paragraph without first introducing it. An introduction might include the title of the source, the author,

and/or a short description of the source/author’s credentials. In this way, no evidence is presented without a

context because it is this context that makes the evidence meaningful.

d. Evidence: The evidence that you present backs up your topic sentence, and by extension, supports your thesis

statement. The evidence that you supply can be a number of things: a quotation from a source; a reasonable,

illustrative example; a statistic; commentary from an interview; etc.

e. Explanation of evidence: No piece of evidence stands on its own or is convincing on its own. Although it may

seem to draw a direct line to your topic sentence to support it, often the reader needs you to make the connection

between the two. Further, the general rule is that for each sentence of quoted material, your explanation should be

just as long, so if you include a block quotation, the block quotation should be met with an equally long explanation.

f. Transition (1-2 sentences): Transitions are essential for research papers because body paragraphs, especially,

are written as units, and it is the transitions that allow for these units to be linked together. Take a look at the list of

transitional expressions on pp. 44-45 in The Little, Brown Compact Handbook with Exercises.

6. Conclusion:

Your conclusion should pull together your entire paper. Do not consider the conclusion a summary of your paper;

your abstract is the summary of your paper. Instead, your conclusion is your opportunity to suggest what might be

done with your findings. A good conclusion will restate the thesis, place a judgment on the issue discussed,

discuss the implications of your findings, issue a directive or call to action to the reader, and close out the paper

with a strong final thought. However, depending upon your topic and your treatment of that topic, the conclusion

may take different forms. Your conclusion for this paper must be at least 150 words. If the conclusion is less than

the word count, it is likely you have not fully developed your conclusion, and this lack of development can severely

impact your grade for this assignment. For an example and explicit instructions on how to write a conclusion, see

pp. 501-506 of Strategies for Writing Successful Research Papers.

What are the most difficult problems you have experienced in running the facility?

5 Page Medical Sociology Paper on a visit to local Nursing Home to interview management and staff

This activity requires you to arrange a visit to a nursing home in your community and interview management, personal care staff, and nursing staff. Your objective is to learn as much as you can about the services provided to the residents, problems experienced by the staff in meeting their needs, and the recommendations of management for improvements to the program. The elderly belong to the group of citizens in our society that is at the heart of the debate we are examining. You should have the opportunity to learn first hand about them, their needs, and the aspirations of those charged with their care. (If a nursing home is not available in your area, you may choose another facility as long as either the facility or the section of the facility you visit deals exclusively with the elderly. In the rare case that no facility is available, students may research this issue in ProQuest and on the Internet to prepare a paper that addresses care of the elderly.)

This activity is comprised of three parts. (100 points) (A 5-page response is required for the combination of Parts A, B, and C and must include references in APA format.)

 

 

Part A The first phase of this activity is to plan your visit by researching the facility. Learn as much as you can about the services, structure, staff and contact personnel. Prepare a visit profileto include the facility, the people you would like to interview, their roles and responsibilities, and several questions you plan to explore with each category of person you interview. It is important that you plan each interview by writing down the questions you want to ask in advance of the interview. (30 points) (A 2-page response is required.)
   
Part B The second phase of the activity involves making the visit and conducting the interviews. Following your interviews, prepare a statement of findings. This statement should contain a detailed list of the facts you have uncovered. (40 points) (A 2-page response is required.)
   
  To help you in your data collection interview activity please consider the following set of questions to explore with the nursing home managers and staff.

Managers

1.     How is the facility structured and organized?

2.     What is the socio-medical profile of the typical resident?

3.     What programs do you provide for the residents?

4.     What are the most difficult problems you have experienced in running the facility?

5.     What has been done to solve the problems?

6.     What improvements would provide the most benefit to the programs and residents?

7.     What are the greatest impediments to implementing these improvements?

Personal Care and Nursing Staff

1.     What is your typical day like?

2.     What program activities are most beneficial to the residents for whom you care?

3.     What are the most difficult problems you have in caring for the residents?

4.     What changes would most help make your job easier?

5.     Do you think the residents are happy here?

6.     If so, why and if not why not?

7.     Do the residents maintain contact with their families?

8.     Are families involved in end-of-life counseling sponsored by the facility?

9.     What is the most difficult medical care problem encountered by the nursing staff?

10.  Under what conditions does the facility employ life-extending medical interventions?

11.  What is the stated facility policy on this issue?

I have provided these questions as a guide to you in preparing for the interviews. Please use them as such and not as an exhaustive and inclusive list of questions. Please feel free to expand, eliminate, or modify your questions, as appropriate, to accomplish the objectives of the activity.

   
Part C The final phase of the activity is to prepare an analysis of your findings, which you should relate to the Lecture and Research Update and the Required Readings in this assignment. Prepare an analysis statement explaining your conclusions on care for the elderly, recommendations on how to improve that care, and your position on whether health care to the elderly should be rationed. (30 points) (A 1-page response is required.)

What problems or research questions were you attempting to answer?

As the marketing director for a large retailer, you have been given the task of understanding why consumer demand has decreased dramatically for one of the company’s store-brand signature products. In order to understand this outcome, you will need to gather information from consumers and store employees. Once the data has been collected, you will analyze it and submit a report to the executive leadership team. Your paper should answer the original question and include recommendations for resolving the problem based on your study’s findings.

Part I (2–3 pages): Preliminary Report

You will write the first 3 sections of the project report. This process provides you with the opportunity to describe the reasons why the study was conducted, how it was conducted, and how you will report the findings to the executive committee. You will provide this preliminary report to your boss for feedback as you prepare the final report for the executive leadership team.

The preliminary report (Key Assignment Draft) should contain the following sections:

  1. Introduction: In this section, you will describe the background of the study. Why did you undertake this study? What problems or research questions were you attempting to answer?Included here is a description of what is already known about the research question (in formal research this is referred to as the Literature Review)
  2. Methodology:In this section, you will describe how you completed the study (how you selected the sample, how you protected participants from any risks of participation, how you surveyed the participants, the questions you asked) and how you analyzed the information gathered.
    • Provide a brief explanation and comparison of both quantitative and qualitative research methods.
    • Identify whether you used quantitative or qualitative research method, and explain how you used the method.
  3. Finally, you will describe how you intend to report the findings of the study to the executive leadership team.

This report should include 23 references related to the background and methodology sections (the text can be used as one of these). Follow general APA guidelines.

This preliminary report will be submitted this week. You will then incorporate the instructor feedback recieved into the final Key Assignment
