Discuss the influence and importance of organized crime in Latin America, Eastern Europe (including Russia), India, and Hong Kong.

You must select a topic from the list of approved topics (available from the course website in Moodle). The issue is not that more than one student writes about the same topic. The big issue is relevance to the course and the course material.
The research paper must include a bibliography (in alphabetical order by author). The research paper also requires a title page, a table of contents page, and section headings within the body of the paper.
The minimum number of pages is a total of seven (title page, table of contents page, four pages of research, and bibliography page).
It is suggested (but not required) that graphic items (pictures, maps, diagrams) be put on separate pages at the end of the paper. Make reference to them within the body of the paper, ex.: “see Figure 1a”, “refer to Map 2”, etc. Note that graphic items are not required for this paper.
The table of contents page is an outline with page numbers. This shows organization in the paper. You will use the topics listed in the table of contents within the paper as section headings. The section headings represent logical breaks in the information you are presenting. There is not a section heading for every paragraph or page, just at points in the paper where you have changed the topic being discussed.
You must use 12 point, with one inch margins, double-spaced. Using fonts other than Times-New Roman, Arial, or Calibri will result in points deducted.
Four bibliographic sources are required; they can be all websites, all bound volumes, or a mix of the two formats. The textbook may be used as a source, but not as one of the four required sources. Dictionaries do not qualify as bibliographic sources. Points will be deducted for citing dictionaries as sources.
To receive full credit, any websites used as sources must be listed in the bibliography with complete, functional web addresses. “Web, date” is not acceptable.
Websites must be credible, associated with a governmental agency, a university or college, a corporation or business of repute, a non-profit organization of repute, or from a published source. This insures editorial review and identification of copyright.
Sources should be cited within the paper with parentheses. Don’t use footnotes. Example: Jones said so in a recent paper (Jones, 2003). Example: In a recent paper, Jones said, “This is so…” (Jones, 2003). A paper with no citations within the body of the paper will lose points.
Please make sure that grammar and spelling are correct. Use complete sentences and avoid fragments. Keep paragraphs compact, internally unified, and presented in a logical sequence. Section headings and a table of contents referring to these headings help organize the paper.
Any academic standard (MLA, APA, etc.) is acceptable. However, Internet sources require functional web addresses.
Grading and points: The final grade for writing assignments is determined by these percentages: Content 60%; Completeness 10%; Neatness 10%; Originality 10%; Grammar and Spelling 10%.
A sample paper is available on the Moodle website. It is meant as an example, so your paper will have different section headings, etc.
As a courtesy to the instructor, if you compose your paper in an Apple computer or if you use “open source” software to write the paper, you must save it as “rich text format” or as a .rtf file. If you save the paper in the default format provided in these two computing environments, the instructor may not be able to open the paper.

Qualitative and quantitative methods are used to collect different types of data. Qualitative methods are used to collect data that is descriptive in nature, while quantitative methods are used to collect data that is numeric. Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages, but many researchers believe that using both methods in a nursing study can increase validity and reliability. One advantage of using both qualitative and quantitative methods is that it allows for triangulation of data. Triangulation is the process of collecting data from multiple sources or perspectives in order to confirm the findings of a study. This can help to ensure that the findings of a study are accurate and not biased. Another advantage of using both qualitative and quantitative methods is that it allows for a more complete understanding of a phenomenon under study. Each method provides different types of information, so using both can give a more well-rounded view (Vaughan, 2021).
There are some disadvantages to using both qualitative and quantitative methods in a nursing study as well. One disadvantage is that it can be time-consuming and expensive to collect data from multiple sources. Another disadvantage is that there may be some overlap between the two types of data, which can make analysis more difficult. Another disadvantage is that using both methods can sometimes be confusing for researchers, as the different approaches can produce conflicting results. Finally, some researchers may not be familiar with both methods and may not know how to properly integrate them into their study. Despite the merits and demerits of using both methods in a nursing study, many researchers believe that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. Using both methods can help to increase validity and reliability, and can provide a more comprehensive understanding of a particular phenomenon (Devault, 2020).

The portfolio that contains elements you have been working on throughout the course; and
The final paper (problem analysis) that you will include as part of the portfolio.
Let’s look at the BIG picture first, the final portfolio.
What is a portfolio?
A portfolio is a collection of items organized in a notebook, file, or a similar format. By collecting this information throughout a course, you can clearly see the connections among assignments as well as the progress you have made. In ENGL110, your portfolio will reflect the work you have done in a specific discipline or topic, ending with the analysis of a problem you have explored. Here are the required elements of the portfolio. The required sections are included in the template.
Title Page
Table of Contents
Item 1 of the Portfolio – Description of Discourse Community in Your Field

Item 3 of the Portfolio – Final Paper – Analysis of a Problem
This is the final problem analysis paper that is the culmination of all the work you have done in the course. Please see the complete description of the paper below.
Final Paper (Problem Analysis)
Assignment Instructions
This analysis project requires you to tackle a problem within your field of study by first exploring it, its causes, and its impacts. Then, if you want, you can recommend one or more practical solutions to solve the problem.
After deciding on the problem you wish to tackle, begin building questions about it. Your goal for the analysis is to answer the questions through your sources. Finding multiple angles and perspectives is ideal so that you explore those possibilities in the final paper before settling on your recommendation. Be sure to identify what is at stake.
Here are questions to help guide your analysis:
What is the problem being addressed (explain, describe, and “prove” that it exists)?
Who is affected by this problem?
Why does this problem exist? (Identify the root causes.)
Why does the problem persist? (Identify the major factors that contribute to the problem’s ongoing presence.)
What is at stake if the problem is not solved?
If you decide to include a solution, use these questions to guide you:
Who can take action?
What should they do, exactly?
Why would this help?
What are the positive and negative aspects of your solution(s)?
PURPOSE: To analyze a problem and possibly provide a solution
AUDIENCE: Classmates, others interested in the field
LENGTH: 900 – 1,000 words (Times New Roman font). Please do not go significantly (~10%) under or above the word count requirement. This word count includes only the paragraphs in your final essay (not the Works Cited/References page or previously submitted sections).
SOURCES: 5 (five) sources from the APUS Library (These may include sources you used in previous assignments. Going under this number will cost points in grading.)
FORMAT: The citation style that is appropriate for your discipline
Submit your assignment as a Word document attached to the assignment link so it can be automatically processed through Turnitin. Use either the MLA or APA template provided. You can save the template with a title like this: Your Name Portfolio Final Paper.
