INDIVIDUAL RESEARCH PAPER: OUTLINE AND REFERENCES ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW: Complete an individual research paper over three separate assignments.
INSTRUCTIONS: You will complete a full-sentence outline for the second part of this paper. The outline must include:
- Thesis Statement: Clearly state the main argument or position of your research paper.
- Question(s)/Issues Being Addressed: Identify the research question(s) or issues that your paper will explore or address.
- Outline Structure: Provide a detailed outline structure indicating how the paper will be organized, including how much space will be allotted for each section.
- Preliminary Reference List: Include a preliminary reference list of at least 5 scholarly sources that are less than 10 years old. The final paper will also need to include the use of your course textbook and Biblical integration
The full sentence outline format is essentially the same as the alphanumeric outline. The main difference (as the title suggests) is that full sentences are required at each level of the outline. This outline is most often used when preparing a traditional essay.
Example:
Thesis Statement: The impact of social media on mental health among adolescents is a growing concern in contemporary society and there is a belief that the younger population is impacted.
Question(s)/Issues Being Addressed:
I. Introduction of topic and focus of paper (1/2 a page of content)
A. Background information on the rise of social media usage among adolescents (1 page of content)
II. Effects of Social Media on Mental Health A. Influence of social media usage on self-esteem and body image (3/4 pages of content)
B. Relationship between excessive screen time and depressive symptoms
III. Strategies for Mitigating Negative Effects
A. Promoting digital literacy and responsible social media usage
B. Encouraging offline social interactions and activities IV. Conclusion
Full sentence outlines are often accompanied with an APA reference list on a separate page. Quotes within the outline must also utilize current APA in-text citations
