Discuss, in one-paragraph, how your SID research makes a contribution to a social problem within your community, whether on the local, national, or global level.

he outline should include a minimum of seven main points (with a minimum of two
sub-points per main section) to label your ideas, beginning with an
overview
and ending with a
conclusion
. Work to integrate a minimum of 10 research-quality APA style citations and strive
to get least five of the sources from peer-reviewed journals. To ensure the information in this
section is relevant and timely, most of the literature you cite should be recent (sources
published within the past 5 years). If you are unable to locate research-quality sources
published within the last 5 years, contact your instructor for guidance about how to proceed.
following pages.Each annotated bibliography should be properly formatted and include the required
information. The heading of each annotated bibliography should begin with the reference
listing in 100% APA style. The annotation should follow. Within each annotation, you
should include a paraphrased description of the purpose and key content/findings. You
should identify the discipline of the source and the section of the Prospectus you will
integrate the source content. You should also include an analysis of why information in the
source is relevant to the listed section. Each annotation should be no more than 150 words
with each being approximately
100 words long.
The sources you cite in each section of your final prospectus should 100% match
the sources included in your annotated bibliographResearch Topic Statement
Formal research papers often begin with a clear and concise
Research Topic Statement
.
The
Research Topic Statement
helps readers understand the general topic area of your
research. The
Research Topic Statement
also alerts the reader to the specific purpose of the
research you will report in your paper.
You will write the one-page
Research Topic Statement
during Unit 3
. The
Research
Topic Statement
should include three paragraphs: (a) a one-paragraph introduction to the
general topic, including your personal and/or professional motivation for selecting the topic;
(b) a one-paragraph discussion of what we know from current literature about the topic; and
(c) a one-paragraph discussion on the ways your research will integrate knowledge,
information, and insights from other disciplines in order to gain a holistic, nuanced, and
sophisticated understanding of your topic. The final paragraph should end with a sentence
where you state with clarity and precision, the specific purpose of your research paper
(beginning with, “In this paper, I will explore/discuss/analyze, investigate…).
Writing should be scholarly, aligning with the best practices presented in the following

Search the literature to find research-quality sources that you can integrate into the section. List each of them in proper APA style. Use the PACS APA guide that can be downloaded from the APA tab near the center of the course homepage. You will be graded against the examples found within the PACS guide. Mirror the appropriate examples there and you should do well.
