SYNTHESIS PAPER ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS

You will demonstrate your use of current APA skills that you honed during the APA Assignment and the Case Study Assignment, and all the content you studied throughout all this course. Current APA format needs to be demonstrated in all aspects of this Synthesis Paper Assignment.

INSTRUCTIONS

The purposes of this Synthesis Paper Assignment are to:

● Demonstrate proper use of current APA format in a term paper.

● Demonstrate proper use of one of the research methods studied in this course—specifically, the case study.

● Reflect on what you have learned in this course and write about it.

● Reflect on the course content as critiqued from a biblical, Christian perspective and write about it.

Using a case study report approach, write 4 – 8 pages of a research-based report using yourself as the research subject by answering these three assigned research questions:

● What have you learned about research at an introductory level?

● How do you evaluate or critique this from a biblical, Christian perspective?

● Describe the process you, the researcher, went through with this Synthesis Paper Assignment, gathering information, deciding what to include, and so on.

Create an appropriate heading for each of these questions. Do not copy the questions above to use as the wording for your headings. These three questions above are deliberately not written as level one headings in current APA formatting the way they appear above, however, a good way to organize your document would be to use these three ideas as appropriately written level one headings. Add additional levels of headings as appropriate throughout the document to organize your content.
