Assignment

Topic: Violence Associated with Illegal Narcotics

Topic should be fully developed and include at least ten peer-reviewed articles. Do not use anything from Wikipedia or from a Newspaper as those items are not academically acceptable.

Instructions: The project will include 5 pages of content excluding the cover page, abstract, table of contents and reference section. Your final project must not go over the 10-page content maximum.

APA 6th edition must be followed with the formulation of the paper. Additionally, you must use the APA 6th edition paper template which is found in the library. A link to the library can be found in the course room.

The final project is to be written in an academic tone. You are not to write in the first person. Instead, you need to use the third person. Remember, an academic paper is not to be written like you are having a casual conversation with your friends. Do not include slang or foul language unless you are quoting someone.

Large word-for-word quotes are not permitted for the final project as well. Try to limit direct quotes and paraphrase instead.

The final paper needs to include an examination of current research on the particular problem you choose to examine and it needs to include the students careful and informed analysis of the issue.
