c771-unit-7-paper

  • Prompt: You will be writing a response to the Problem Statement for the research you plan to conduct. The specific requirement is completion of the Problem Statement. However, you may also develop further sections that are a part of Chapter 1 if time permits and submit them, along with the Problem Statement. If you are still unsure of your topic, submit your most recent discovery. The assignment should be aligned with the requirements of the Belhaven University DBA Dissertation Template. The short description from the template that pertains to the Problem Statement is presented below:
  • All doctoral research aims at addressing a gap in the body of knowledge, as observed in the literature that surrounds the topic of choice. Once this is identified, the researcher explains it so that the reader is clear about the direction of the research.

The Problem Statement should include a minimum of five (5) sources obtained from reviewing scholarly research and embody five (5) to six (6) paragraphs. The five or more sources will be the foundation for your study. It is important to note that all supporting statements regarding your research must come from scholarly sources. No observations in your paper can be from personal experience. In addition to the required Problem Statement that will subsequently become a part of your proposal and ultimately the completed dissertation, the paper should include a narrative that explains your thinking behind the selection of the topic. The paper should be structured as follows:

  • Introduction to your topic ((**The topic I have selected is Public Administration))
  • Problem Statement formally written as you expect it to be completed in the proposal, including citations that point to the research that forms the foundation of your study. The Problem Statement, as a formal declaration, should not be in first-person or include personal observations. The scholarly writing should adhere to the expectations of the academic community and the American Psychological Association (APA) Publication Manual, 7th
  • State what is your specific contribution to the knowledge we have today on the topic. Your research aims at addressing a gap in the body of knowledge, as observed in the literature that surrounds the topic of choice. Once this is identified, the researcher explains it so that the reader is clear about the direction of the research.
  • Discussion related to your thought process for topic selection and the formalized Problem Statement
  • If you desire to work on any other section of the Proposal (Chapter 1), include sections for each section you include
  • Conclusion
  • Reference Section (including all sources used in the paper)

The paper should be a minimum of 5-6 pages, including all sections.

Requirements: Double-spaced, 12-point, Times New Roman font and formatted per APA 7th edition.

Instructions. Read Carefully! Please answer three of the following questions in approximately two typed, double-spaced pages each. You may consult your notes and any assigned readings you think might be helpful. If you wish—though I don’t consider it necessary—you may also consult library materials. However, under no circumstances should you consult any Internet materials. In avoiding even the appearance of plagiarism, err on the side of caution. Be sure to credit every source you use, and to provide specific page references for every quotation or paraphrase. Extended quotations are discouraged. You may visit us in the office at any time during the examination period, though don’t be surprised if we try, in a Socratic vein, to get you to reach your own answers to the questions, rather than laying out ours. You may also discuss the exam with your classmates, prior to writing it. Once you have started the actual writing, classmates and other fellow students are off limits.You may not share your completed exam, in whole or in part, with anyone who has yet to submit his or her own exam.

Your answers will be evaluated primarily on the clarity of your reasoning. Each answer is worth 5 points.

Exams must be turned in on Canvas. You are only allowed one submission, so include all three of your essays in a single file! To ensure compatibility, you are required to use Microsoft Word format. You may turn in your exam early, but because this is a timed exercise, no late papers will be accepted. You are responsible for retaining a backup, either on paper or disk. No hardcopy or email submissions will be accepted under any circumstances.
