See the corrections and use the corrected paper to do the synthesis.
Please look at the comments of the instructor from the paper and link to assignment. She states two additional peer review articles are needed. If you need me to give you two I will or if you have two then let me know and look at them before inserting in work.
A. Make sure you read the instructions for the Module 4 synthesis paper AND the rubric that will be used to grade it, very carefully. Note from the instructions that the two main components of the content of your paper should be:
1. A statement of common themes addressed in each of the three articles.
2. A statement of the conclusions that can be drawn when the articles are taken together as a single entity. What is the overall message of the group of articles?
YOU SHOULD IDENTIFY 3 THEMES COMMON ACROSS ALL 3 ARTICLES. Remember, you are to use THREE articles from the Module 1 and 2 course readings. Identify what the theme is and then discuss what each article contributes on that theme. In your paper you should include a synthesis of the common themes you identified. In your paper you should include the two additional articles you found as supporting research. These additional articles may not be any articles from RES811 or from this course.
This is the note I provide al all students as synthesis can be a very foreign concept. I have included some helps at the end of this message that explain synthesis if you are unfamiliar with it. Basically synthesis is combining. It is like combining two elements to form a compound in chemistry. Two components combine/react to form something entirely new. You will consider the themes together and come up with an overall statement of conclusions on what you think the overall message is. A SYNTHESIS IS NOT SIMPLY SUMMARIZING OR RECAPPING INFORMATION FROM THE ARTICLES OR RESTATING THEMES. You cannot simply regurgitate what the authors say. You have to dig deeper into the meaning.
B. Make sure you follow all APA formatting guidelines, and that your paper is ORGANIZED correctly. Specifically, your paper must have the following:
1. A TITLE PAGE, correctly formatted with a properly formatted Running head
2. An INTRODUCTION. DO NOT put "INTRODUCTION" as a heading of your introduction. Instead put the title of your paper, centered, and not bolded or underlined. Following a brief introduction to the paper to provide context and to hook the reader (supported by in-text citations), DO NOT introduce the articles by title or provide summaries of the articles. Also, be sure your introduction includes a CLEARLY STATED PURPOSE AND THESIS STATEMENT. Below is an example (remember you must use your own words):
"The purpose of this paper is to review common themes related to leadership by examining the relationship of ... (fill in your themes here with your own words here). A review of common themes identified in the analysis suggests that ... (fill in with your thesis statement here)...."
3. SECTIONS. You must include a separate section for each common theme you identify. Each section should have a centered and bolded section heading. The section heading can just be the name of the theme that the section is about. So let's say your first theme/section is Leadership Behavior. The section would discuss what each article contributes on that theme (be sure to properly cite the articles as you discuss the information you get from them). Remember to include a synthesis in your paper.This is where you discuss the articles/themes taken together as a single entity, and what you determine the overall message to be. REMEMBER, A SYNTHESIS IS NOT SIMPLY SUMMARIZING INFORMATION FROM THE ARTICLES OR RESTATING THE THEMES. You should NOT have a separate section for synthesis. Synthesis should occur throughout your document.
4. CONCLUSION section. This is where you will very briefly recap all the major points you made in your paper. The conclusion needs to make the paper come full circle. Think of it as a mini condensed version of the paper, hitting major points and showing that the purpose/thesis, stated in the introduction, has been accomplished. Reaffirm the conclusion you have come to base on the analysis/synthesis you did. Include future recommendations. I would begin by looking at some of the limitations and generate your recommendations from there. Use citation in the conclusion to make a strong connection to the research discussed in the paper.
5. REFERENCES & CITATIONS.Make sure your paper is properly supported throughout with citations of sources (in this case the sources are the 3 articles being examined and the two supporting articles you found) for the information you provide, and the points your make. There should be a reference for every source cited in your paper. Make sure your in-text citations, references, and the references page are correctly formatted according to APA guidelines.
