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.

Case Study: Developing Transnational Groups

Case Study: Developing Transnational Groups

Use the assigned chapters and the “Interpersonal Relationships in Transnational, Virtual Teams: Towards a Configurational Perspective” article located on this week’s University Library Resources page to complete this assignment.

Read the following case study scenario:

In a recent merger, two companies combined; one company was located in the United States, and the other company was located in Japan. Although both companies are now a unified business organization, offices will be kept in both countries. Because of this merger, transnational groups are now being formed with employees from the United States and from Japan.

Write a 1,050- to 1,400-word paper that addresses the following:

  • Define organizational culture, and discuss how an organization’s culture can affect its members.
  • How might individualism and collectivism affect the functioning of the new transnational work groups in this scenario?
  • Discuss strategies that can help transnational work groups be successful and effective when meeting face to face.
  • Because transnational work groups will generally work virtually, discuss strategies focused on helping virtual, transnational work groups be successful and effective.

Format your paper consistent with APA guidelines.

 Think of this essay as a formal history essay,

 

1. Think of this essay as a formal history essay, with one centerpiece (the artifact) around which you build your argument. Do not use the first person: Do not start a sentence with “I” or “we”. Use a formal style like what you would find in a textbook or encyclopedia.

2. Your argument (presented in your thesis) is your argument about what artifact teaches about the time period during which it was created.

3. For help with preparing history essays, view the following:

4. Sources: You are required to use at least three academic books or articles outside of the textbook to provide more information about your object and/or the time period in question

  • You must include a short bibliography at the end of the paper. You may use MLA format
  • You should use footnotes or in-text citations throughout the paper (depending on the citation style you choose: Chicago or MLA). This lets me know where you found your information.
  • Do not use websites. You can use academic articles or books from the library.
  • Encyclopedias do not count as academic sources. They are references. They can be good starting points and can give you ideas about the terms that you will search for while trying to investigate your object more deeply, but use them only as a springboard to get to academic sources (written by someone with credentials in the field of history or related fields like archaeology or religious studies).
    • You can list it in your bibliography.
    • The library has several encyclopedia online, which you can find by clicking the Articles button above the search box on the library home page and scrolling down.
    • It does not count towards the three academic sources you need to fulfill the criteria of this paper.

To be included in the paper:

  1. Describe the object, its historical context, and its significance in the first paragraph. Describe it physically. Include a brief introduction of the time period and the location where it was created. This will lead to your thesis.
  2. Your thesis should illustrate your analysis of the object: It should be a clear statement which makes an argument about the links between the object and its historical context, and what that illustrates about the people who created it, and the time period in which it was created. Your thesis should be one sentence at the end of your first paragraph.
  3. Describe its historical context in detail in the body paragraphs.
  4. Include evidence from your academic sources to support your thesis statement. You can use quotes or paraphrases.
  5. Cite the quotes and paraphrases that you include in your body paragraphs. You may use MLA or Chicago styles. Use in-text citations or footnotes when you do this. It is not sufficient to include it only in your bibliography at the end
  6. Make sure there is information coming from additional sources. See above. Provide background. Do not focus only on the object. Include all sources in a bibliography. The bibliography does not count towards the 4 page requirement.Please find my annotated bibilography that I prepared for this paper with professor’s feedback for reference.

Requirements: 4 page

AN OVERVIEW OF RESEARCH PAPER REQUIREMENTS

All work should be submitted in APA 7th edition style, which includes (if sources are used) in-line citations and a References page. No exceptions.

Note that references used for your research need to be peer-reviewed/scholarly journals. These journals typically have the following characteristics:

1. articles are reviewed by a panel of experts before they are accepted for publication;
2. articles are written by a scholar or specialist in the field;
3. articles report on original research or experimentation;
4. are often published by professional associations;
5. utilize terminology associated with the discipline.

Research Paper Instructions:

Choose one of the topics listed below to write an 8–10-page research paper on. (8-10 pages excluding the title page, reference list, appendices) Your paper MUST be in APA Format.

Do not include quotes in your work. I want to see your critical thinking skills on display and not a string of quotes written by published authors. Your analysis is what is needed for a successful paper. At this point in your educational journey, you should have solid substance and proper academic formatting in your college-level writing assignments. Students will be graded on both so make sure you turn in your best work. Do not wait until the last minute to research, write, format, and edit. Proper time management is required to turn in a quality paper that highlights your criminal justice writing.

This is a major assignment so please follow the instructions carefully.

1. Use at least five articles from scholarly sources in a paper that discusses police departments and crime control strategies.

2. Use at least five articles from scholarly sources in a paper that discusses illegal drug use, illegal prostitution, and money laundering.

3. Use at least five articles from scholarly sources in a paper that compares and contrasts the problems associated with defining and determining the frequency of corporate crime in the United States.

4. Use at least five articles from scholarly sources in a paper that examines one of the various theories that explain crime.

5. Use at least five articles from scholarly sources in a paper that critiques middle-class delinquency’s relationship to gangs.

Use the APUS library to find at least five, peer-reviewed articles that cover your chosen topic from the list above. Again, you are required to use scholarly, peer-reviewed journals, in-text citations, and provide a reference page for this paper.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Once you have submitted the assignment it is automatically run through a plagiarism checker. When you submit your paper into the “assignment” area (as a word doc only) it is processed for plagiarism detection. The paper should not contain any direct quotes. In other words, sources used in the paper should be paraphrased, cited in proper APA format and reflect critical thinking.

In addition, it is important to note the following critical aspects for your paper that if not completed correctly could result in a 0% despite the paper’s content and other evaluation criteria as noted below:

Your paper MUST be in proper APA format.

Your paper MUST utilize APPROPRIATE references.

You MUST avoid any form of plagiarism at all costs.

Requirements: 8-10 pages
