Capstone-You will prepare a project proposal to submit to your instructor. The goal is to provide your instructor with enough information so that he/she can review your project to determine if it will meet the requirement for the capstone course. The proposal should be 500.
- Identify the type of project you plan to do - company research project or business plan.
- Identify the company for the research project or the type of business for the business plan.
- Discuss in 2-3 paragraphs (250 words) why you chose the company research project or the business plan. You can also talk about why you chose a particular company or type of business.
- What do you hope to learn from this project?
- Is there a distinction between personal and professional ethics What?
Is there a distinction between personal and professional ethics? What are the implications for the study of ethics in the college or university classroom?- Is there a distinction between personal and professional ethics What?
ETHIICS IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM What role does ethics play in creating and guiding policy in the criminal justice system? What role does ethics play in the enforcement of laws? How does ethical enforcement relate to the role of investigating and combating terrorism? Is torture ethical in terrorism investigations? What if it saves hundreds of lives? How will ethics play into the future of law enforcement and related decision making? Should there be mandatory ethics courses? Why or why not? If so, how often should they be attended? Are there any police departments currently requiring mandatory ethics training on an annual basis? If so, what departments? What was one of the key points made during your collaborative group discussion this week? Format your presentation consistent with APA guidelines. Click the Assignment Files tab to submit your assignment.
You will review and report on approximately 40-50 articles of importance in your area of interest. You may find as you are writing that you still need to support some parts of your argument better with more research, or that some research does not really fit with your overall organization and plan.
Write a coherent, well-organized paper. Be sure that your paper has an introduction, a main body that is subdivided by topic and subtopic, and a summary. Your summary should draw a conclusion based on your review of the research. This can include what type of program would be best to either prevent or intervene in the problem you focused on, in the population that you chose, or where the research needs to expand to answer your questions. You may find that there is insufficient evidence to draw a conclusion, or that a new program needs to be devised to meet the needs of that particular population.
Length: 25-30 pages
Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course, and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.

In this assignment, you will construct a chart that organizes your research and allows you to analyse each one across certain key dimensions. See the following example to get an idea of how you can prepare such a chart. You may need to add categories to your chart, appropriate for your own research. Organize the chart in a logical way—for example, by date of research, by program or intervention you are studying, or by any other criterion—which makes sense for your particular literature review. Use color-coding within the chart as an additional organization tool.
(The following chart is an example of how you might prepare a chart; the entries in the chart are hypothetical, not real.)
Length: 1-2 pages, not including reference pages; 30-40 articles

Research Abstract
You will prepare 300-word research abstract with our class. The purpose of this abstract will be to prepare us, your fellow scholars, for your presentation and to give us a chance to contextualize and become invested in what you’ll present/propose. Your abstract should aim to do the following:
1. Carefully explain the overall purpose of your research and the research question(s) you
investigated;
3. Intricately detail the major findings or trends found as a result of your analysis;
4. Provide a brief summary of your interpretations and conclusions
The research paper will be attached
Purpose of a Literature Review – to identify what has already been done/found, in relation to the research topic that is being studied and answers the question of what needs to happen next. – provide a brief overview of research you’ve read. – Demonstrate that you understand the topic and have significant knowledge within the field of study and then make a case. – Making a case may be an analysis of research, study, or conceptual argument. – Also, be sure to include a persuasive argument.
– At the end of a literature review you should identify a gap or misinterpretation within the information (identify and explore the gap). My approach to writing this literature review was somewhat similar to the writing of a “regular” essay. I’ve used this approach in past assignments I’ve completed including such as a narrative and an annotated bibliography. They all have similar characteristics. Thank goodness for this! It gives me an idea of where to start. I believe these common characteristics are the main subject of the piece of writing and evidence/textuality of your point from other readings. Textuality is using pieces of writing from other works to support your points. Beware, though these essays may serve as a guide, they also have many differences.
– What should you do next? *Ponders* – Information! Information! Information! Be resourceful, support your claims, justify your answers. – It is important that you do this in the correct way. – My greatest advice would be to ask your professor for a peer review guide and use it as you write. This will ensure that your writing is clear, organized, flowing, and well-written. If you feel as though you cannot do this for yourself, I’d suggest having someone else read your literature review aloud. Dailyn’s essential steps to writing a literature review; these are my own ideas so I have no proof if they actually worked until I receive feedback. I’m hoping I pulled this one together. How do you approach literature reviews? Good luck, and until next time. Take care.
Literature Reviews What this handout is about This handout will explain what a literature review is and offer insights into the form and construction of a literature review in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences. Introduction OK. You’ve got to write a literature review. You dust off a novel and a book of poetry, settle down in your chair, and get ready to issue a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” as you leaf through the pages. “Literature review” done. Right? Wrong! The “literature” of a literature review refers to any collection of materials on a topic, not necessarily the great literary texts of the world. “Literature” could be anything from a set of government pamphlets on British colonial methods in Africa to scholarly articles on the treatment of a torn ACL.
And a review does not necessarily mean that your reader wants you to give your personal opinion on whether or not you liked these sources. What is a literature review, then? A literature review discusses published information in a particular subject area, and sometimes information in a particular subject area within a certain time period. A literature review can be just a simple summary of the sources, but it usually has an organizational pattern and combines both summary and synthesis. A summary is a recap of the important information of the source, but a synthesis is a re-organization, or a reshuffling, of that information.
It might give a new interpretation of old material or combine new with old interpretations. Or it might trace the intellectual progression of the field, including major debates. And depending on the situation, the literature review may evaluate the sources and advise the reader on the most pertinent or relevant. But how is a literature review different from an academic research paper? The main focus of an academic research paper is to develop a new argument, and a research paper will contain a literature review as one of its parts.
In a research paper, you use the literature as a foundation and as support for a new insight that you contribute. The focus of a literature review, however, is to summarize and synthesize the arguments and ideas of others without adding new contributions. Why do we write literature reviews? Literature reviews provide you with a handy guide to a particular topic. If you have limited time to conduct research, literature reviews can give you an overview or act as a stepping stone. For professionals, they are useful reports that keep them up to date with what is current in the field.
For scholars, the depth and breadth of the literature review emphasizes the credibility of the writer in his or her field. Literature reviews also provide a solid background for a research paper’s investigation. Comprehensive knowledge of the literature of the field is essential to most research papers. Who writes these things, anyway? Literature reviews are written occasionally in the humanities, but mostly in the sciences and social sciences; in experiment and lab reports, they constitute a section of the paper. Sometimes a literature review is written as a paper in itself.
