Final ProjectOver the last six modules, you built toward this culminating moment: the submission of your final project. This week you will be drafting a research paper of 6-7 pages (approximately 1500-1750 words) that builds on your previous Milestone work. Use theFinal Project Templatefor an example of how to create and format your final paper.Begin by reading pages 7.8-7.13 in the webtext before beginning this assignment.Step 1: Reflect on Previous Milestone Feedback and Make AdjustmentsEach week after you submitted a Milestone assignment, your instructor provided you with feedback, often including suggestions for improvement. Take stock of that feedback and incorporate it. This might mean adjusting the wording of your thesis statement, replacing a source, fixing errors in your APA formatting, rewriting your introduction, or rethinking your organization of paragraphs. In addition to your instructor’s feedback, make sure to use your peer’s feedback on Milestone 5 as well – what suggestions did they have to improve your introduction and outline? Did they understand your argument and if not, how can you communicate it more clearly?Step 2: Use Your Outline to Draft Your PaperUsing your Milestone 5 outline, begin to flesh out each of your body paragraphs by adding evidence from your sources that support your thesis (along with proper in-text citations for ideas or quotes from your sources). Make sure to include transitions between paragraphs and wrap up your paper with a conclusion paragraph that reiterates your thesis argument and offers some concluding thoughts.Step 3: Review and Edit Your WorkOnce you have a full draft written, make sure to re-read it carefully with an eye on the details like spelling, grammar, punctuation, sentence clarity, and word choice. Go back to the Writing Refresher section of the course for help with any weak areas of your writing. Try reading it aloud to catch errors you might otherwise miss in print.Step 4: Submit to the Canvas and Review Your Turnitin Report. Make Changes If Needed and Resubmit.As you learned in Module 4, Excelsior usesTurnitinin the Canvas dropbox as a learning tool for students. Plan to submit to the dropbox a few days early if you can so you have time to review your Turnitin report and similarity score. If your score comes back high, revise your content to make sure you are using original writing, citing ideas from others, and properly putting the exact words of others in quotation marks.Note: you can resubmit to the dropbox up until the due date for this assignment, which is Sunday night at 11:59 pm ET of Module 7. After that due date has passed, your most recent submission is considered final.ResourcesFinal Project TemplateDownload Final Project Template(Word document)Writing RefresherSubmission Instructions:Submit a completed 6-7 page (approx. 1500-1750 words) research paper on your topic choice made in Module 1 that incorporates your work from Milestones 1-6.
