There are many
methods available for conducting research, one of which is a case study. The purpose
of this assignment is for you to learn how to conduct and complete a case
study. Proper APA formatting throughout the document is a substantial part of
the content of this assignment.
Instructions: Answer
the following four questions using current APA format throughout (including
your title page, appropriate vocabulary and sentence structure, introductory
statement, in-text citations, page numbers, levels of headings throughout the
document, an introductory statement, a conclusion statement, and consistency
between your in-text citations and references). Use your course textbooks,
including your Introduction to Research textbook and the Publication Manual, and at least two additional scholarly references.
This assignment must have a title page, plus two to four pages of appropriate content,
and a reference page. Give the answers to these questions in your own words and
with your own explanation. Cite your sources in-text, and list your various
sources as references on your references page.
This assignment is
requiring level one headings based on each of the questions. Create your own brief
phrase for a properly formatted level one heading based on each question so as
to be clear about which item you are answering. Your headings must not be
simply copied/pasted from the questions. An acceptable heading must clearly
capture the essence of each question. Headings are typically brief statements. See various sections of your Publication Manual for details about the
requirements in this assignment.
