Draft a transition to move the reader from your Literature Review to your Diversity and Ethics section. Be sure you state the problem you are examining and its significance.

Borderline Personality Disorder

This ties in with all of the documents I sent you for the prior assignment – LA 498 Liberal Arts Capstone Course

 

Instructions: Begin by organizing your work in the order of the scaffolded assignments: Research Proposal, Literature Review, Diversity and Ethics. Add to those the transcript of your oral presentation as well as copies of the feedback and suggestions provided by faculty and classmates. Make sure you have APA citation information for all the additional scholarly sources you’ve gathered since your initial Literature Review.

Create a new document to hold the sections for your final paper. You should be ready to finalize those section headings now. You cannot simply insert minor changes to the original papers. Each draft section must be thoroughly revised and rewritten to incorporate the feedback provided as well as additional scholarly sources necessary to fully support your thesis. Your revised work must reflect clear evidence of improved research, writing, analysis, synthesis, and argument development skills.

Begin your document by drafting a working thesis for your final paper. Be prepared to edit after you’ve completed all sections of the final paper. Leave your introduction section empty for now. (As E.M. Forster said, “How do I know what I think until I see what I say?”)

  1. Copy/paste in your revised/rewritten Literature Review. Your revised work must present a comprehensive overview of the contemporary research studies and other recent scholarly articles examining the topic approved by your instructor (a minimum of 7-9 relevant scholarly articles in this final version). If appropriate, your review may also include a limited number of discipline-specific reports from industry or government agencies. When using industry-related sources, be mindful of the potential bias involved and examine that in your review. Include additional scholarly sources as needed with appropriate citations. We expect you to expand the sources from your original Literature Review with other peer-reviewed sources specific to diversity and ethics.
  2. Draft a transition to move the reader from your Literature Review to your Diversity and Ethics section. Be sure you state the problem you are examining and its significance.
  3. Copy/paste in your revised/rewritten Diversity and Ethics paper. Be sure you touch on all the required elements of that scaffold step, but be prepared to move the information around. Possibly some of what you wrote will work better in the introductory or concluding sections of the final paper, and that’s fine, so long as it’s covered! The resulting section will summarize who’s affected by the problem, key differences found in your examination of multiple perspectives, and the significance of such differences.
  4. Draft a transition to move the reader from your Diversity and Ethics section to your final section.
  5. Write a final, new section in which you advocate the most equitable solution to the problem examined. Draw upon the scholarly sources in your previous sections to substantiate your position. If necessary, provide further support with government reports and studies as well as non-governmental organizational reports and studies.
  6. Based on the work you’ve developed thus far, review and revise your working thesis.
  7. Draft a comprehensive introduction for your paper. Your original Research Proposal could be helpful here.
  8. Draft a conclusion that fully wraps up all themes and ideas presented in all the sections.
  9. Draft an Abstract that provides a preview of the entire paper in about a paragraph.
  10. Build your comprehensive reference list in correct APA format.

The result of these steps should be a very rough draft of your final paper. As you further revise and refine it, keep in mind this basic framework that your final submission should follow:
