Question description

Final Project Outline/Annotated Bibliography

Before you begin, review the possible topics and requirements for your Final Project in Week Five. There are four topics that you may choose from and they are listed at the beginning of the Final Project prompt. Submit the following to your instructor for review:

1. Identify the topic of your Final Project ( TOPICS FOUND BELOW )

  • Describe the issue, why it was selected, the perspective of approach, and the scope of the paper.

2. Provide an outline of your project

  • The outline should include a heading for each section of the Research Paper/PowerPoint Presentation (including one for the thesis and the conclusion) as well as heading descriptions. Subheadings should also be used with a description of each subheading. These should demonstrate that you have done significant research, evaluation, and critical thinking on the issues involved and should illustrate the strategies you would incorporate and implement for the scenario you are creating.

3. Create an annotated bibliography

  • The annotated bibliography should contain at least five scholarly sources that you intend to use in your project. Each listing must include a paraphrased narrative of the actual research study presented in the article and the studies used should represent the most current research related to the topic area.

Your outline and annotated bibliography must adhere to proper APA style .
Your assignment should be four to six pages as follows:

TOPICS & INSTRUCTIONS

For WK 3 assignment for your convenience I have included them here. There is also information below on what is considered an acceptable source and what is not considered an acceptable sources.

For your outline make sure it is an outline. Please do not submit paragraphs or narratives. The outline should be very specific and show the flow of the paper. By specific it should have one or two sentences or words that relate to your topic; The headings and subheadings should not contain the words such as Body, Topic 1 or Topic 2 but the actual words or phrases related to the topic. It should also include your reference page with a summarized narrative regarding the content of each of the sources (this is an annotated bibliography)

Please note that even if you choose to make your final paper a power point, the outline is not to be in power point format – the outline is to be a word document.

Below is the list of approved research topics. One of these topics must be chosen and used for your paper. Once it has been submitted please let me know if you are going to change topics.

      1. Research specific leadership and management traits and theories necessary for managing a multidisciplinary and multicultural healthcare organization to promote organizational effectiveness.
      2. Present how strategic planning, performance improvement, and information systems are interrelated and fundamental to the delivery of quality healthcare.
      3. Examine the financial characteristics of healthcare delivery along with managing costs, revenues, and human resources.
      4. Analyze ethical and legal concepts, including specific federal regulations, required of healthcare organizations to ensure the delivery of high quality healthcare that protects patient safety.

Academic research and papers must meet certain standards of quality recognized by the academic community. What constitutes quality academic research?

      • Primary (original) sources written by experts in the field of study.
      • Secondary sources supported by research in primary sources.
      • Credible sources (experts in the area of study).
      • Relevant research (materials pertinent to the area of study).
      • In graduate work, the use of peer-reviewed journal articles (journal articles reviewed by recognized experts in the relevant field of study) is required.
      • Educational websites may be appropriate, in some cases, but should be evaluated carefully.

What sources are not acceptable for academic research and referencing?

      • Encyclopedias
      • Dictionaries
      • Wikipedia, other wikis, or blogs
      • Websites and other sources that do not provide quality researched materials (do not use credible sources to support the information in the document).

All research must reflect professional academic protocol and must be documented according to APA standards.
