Concordia University Irvine Online Classes on Math Learning Discussion

I’m working on a research & summaries project and need guidance to help me learn.

uploaded my proposal named assignment #9 for the research paper that was approved. I need you to turn it into a research paper. I also put two sample papers in the uploads

Tips for the Paper (never ending!)

• Review the sample papers for formatting purposes and to see how they defined key terms (Week 14)
• Go over the comments from previous assignments
• Define ALL key terms
• Check your Running head (title page) along with other headers
• When you define terms, discuss advantages and disadvantages
• If a sentence starts out with a number/percentage, always spell it out
• If a number is less than 10, spell it out
• Review proper APA in-text citations (see links below)
• When in doubt, always cite (any reference to your articles or other sources)
• Review proper APA format for the References page
• Clearly identify and articulate your experiment/non-experiment, sampling method, recruitment, variables, etc. Everything we discussed during our one-on-one
• References page must be in alphabetical order
• Everything should be double-spaced
• Your references should have appropriate hanging indentations
• Journal names should be italicized in the main body and on the References page
• Utilize transitional phrases to make your paragraphs flow better
• Don’t forget about your appendices!
  • Survey instrument(s)
  • IRB Form
  • Site Authorization?
  • Translation form?
  • Consent form?
  • Parental consent form?
  • Child assent form
  • In-text Citation Examples
    • According to Jones (1998), “Students often had difficulty using APA style, especially when it was their first time“.
    • APA style is a different citation format for first-time learners (Jones, 1998)
    • Jones (1998) found “students often had difficulty using APA style”; what implications does this have for teachers
    • She stated, “Students often had difficulty using APA style” (Jones, 1998), but she did not offer an explanation as to why.
