The goal of academic writing is to integrate research to support an original position on a
topic. To do this, authors must first identify what has already been written about the topic
and engage in a discussion of the existing research. For the final project, you will apply
the reading, research, and writing skills you learned in the course to develop a
persuasive research essay on a topic of your choice. The audience will be academics,
so the language and presentation should be formal.
PROJECT INSTRUCTIONS
Your deliverable for this project will be a research paper formatted according to APA
standards (suggested length: 8-10 pages). Your submission will include a research
prospectus, a literature review, a research paper, and a correctly formatted references page.
In the research paper, you should identify a specific research question within your field
of study, use at least five credible sources to explain the problem, and develop an
original response or solution.
Your sources for your research should:
• Demonstrate the ability to correctly locate, interpret, and integrate research to
support and/or clarify your position as it relates to your topic.
• Be directly relevant to the topic, position, and/or a counter- position that will be
presented in the essay.
• Be presented and analyzed to demonstrate a thoughtful and accurate
representation of their content.
• Facilitate engagement with the ongoing conversation that exists on the selected
topic.
