Your MS Word document will be a minimum of 25 pages of actual content in APA format
(i.e., double-spaced with one-inch margins all around) and not to exceed 35 pages
maximum.
You will provide the following:
Title page.
Abstract with Keywords, (Yes, APA spells this as one word).
Table of Contents, (Optional based upon how complex your paper is).
your actual research content, discussion and/or literature review – divided
into major headings and subheadings, as appropriate;
References, which appears on a separate page at the end of your document,
but prior to any Appendix or Appendices.
You may provide artwork/graphics, exhibits, figures, graphs, and tables; but I
would prefer that you insert these at the end of your document as an
Appendix or Appendices (plural).
You must perform scholarly research to complete this assignment. You MUST have
evidentiary support from the extant literature to develop your formal topical paper. I
strongly recommend at least two to three (02-03) parenthetical citations per page and
at least 15 or more authoritative resources as the minimum expectations for this paper.
Utilize the identified resources from your annotated bibliography as a basis for your
research paper. If you completed the annotated bibliography process correctly, it will
make the research paper much easier to design and develop.
Please note that it is not necessary to use all of the listed sources from the annotated
bibliography.
