Prepare and submit a (no more than) 2-page typed paper (Monograph Format) addressing one item of significance you gained from the article.
Writing
the Monograph
Typically,
a Monograph is an authoritative paper on one subject. In this class, we are
going to write a series of shorter Monographs with specific topics related to
Health Care Ethics and Decision Making.
Due
to the nature of this course, some of the content of the Monograph may deal
with uncomfortable topics and may touch on sincerely held personal beliefs. It
is acceptable to share these beliefs. Remember, there is a difference between
religion and ethics. This is a course on ethics. My opinion may differ from
yours on some topics, but use your words to support your Monograph. Full credit
is not dependent on writing what you think the professor wants to hear.
Use
proper grammar and complete sentences in your Monographs. Use the text and
readings to support your comments, or conduct outside research. Use APA format
for citing sources in your Monograph. It is expected that each Monograph will
utilize a minimum of three sources.
Feel
free to use any material from the text, the readings, or other legitimate
sources on the Internet. Opinion posts, blogs, editorials, gifs or memes are
not legitimate sources. Be sure to cite your sources.
Length and format: In general, each Monograph should be no more
than TWO pages. It is acceptable to conclude your Monograph; press enter two
times and add your references at the bottom of page two. If necessary, ONLY
your references can be placed on page three of your Monograph. The expectation of
the Monographs is to present your thoughts concisely within the scope of two (2)
typed pages (i.e. the Executive Summary concept).
Basics of a Monograph Format:
There
should be uniform margins of at least one-inch at the top, bottom, left,
and right sides of your Monograph.
Your
Monograph should be double-spaced.
Identify
your Monograph in the HEADER your Course
Identifier, Your title of the Monograph, and your name.
The
title of your Monograph should be concise and clearly describe what you
are writing about, and not just the title of the Article.
Your
Monograph should also include a reference list., additional to the 2-page written discussion. Located
at the end of your Monograph, the reference section is a list of all the
sources that were cited. References should be listed alphabetically by the
last name of the author, and they should also be double-spaced.
The
first word of each paragraph in your Monograph should be indented one-half
inch.
Use
Times New Roman size 12 font.
Make
sure that your writing is concise.
Watch carefully for typos and
grammar errors.
