Anything to do with nursing except being over worked already did paper on it.

Go to the library and find trade journals, books, newspaper articles, or other sources that deal with your major or occupation. (If you have any trouble finding anything, ask the librarians for help. DO NOT BE SHY! (None of the librarians have bitten anyone yet). Online people, you may access the library web page to look for ideas or visit your county library. 2. When you find sources that deal with your chosen topic, look through the sources for ideas to write on. 3. The next thing that you will need to do is choose a topic. The topic (thesis) should focus on research and design, management styles, or money-saving techniques used by businesses or governmental agencies in their daily operations. You are not reviewing job qualifications. For example, do not use a thesis such as, “To be an accountant, I must get a four-year accounting degree.” Instead, focus on an issue in your field that needs to be eliminated or modified. In the essay example, the student who wrote this wanted to be a pharmacist, so his focus was, “. . . by not controlling deforestation, many medicinal plants may become extinct that otherwise might be used to save lives.” A nursing student once argued that “. . . hospitals should be required to use disposable gowns because disposable gowns are more sanitary and cost efficient than the reusable gowns.” 4. Now, you are ready to start your paper. The paper must be typed, two pages minimum (This does not include the Works Cited or References page), Times New Roman 12, and include at least three references. This time, you may choose to write your paper either using MLA or APA formatting. I recommend that if you are a nursing, business, psychology, or science major to use APA. If you are majoring in humanities, MLA will be fine. Remember, help for both styles can be found on the Purdue Owl web page (http://owl(dot)english(dot)purdue(dot)edu). 5. Turn in any outside research--information used that is not in your textbook. A 15-point penalty will be the result of not providing me with copies of your outside research. A 10- point reduction will result if you do not turn in an outline. 6. For up to a possible 10 extra points, you may present your paper in a 5-7-minute oral presentation, which will dazzle and amaze your fellow classmates with brilliance. You must use at least one visual. We will do this the last week of class. Online students will need a web cam. You will also need to schedule a day and time slot for when you would like to present. 7. You will be graded on originality 10%; content 70% (spelling/grammatical mistakes, overall neatness/styling); and 20% for properly documented sources. 8. This assignment is due on Wed., May 1, (MW Classes) and Thurs., May 2, (TR an
