\nin the syllabus, <\/span>the
\nresearch paper assignment is like a corporate \u201cwhite paper\u201d. A white paper is
\nan analysis of a problem that has yet to be addressed or, in the opinion of the
\nwriter, has been previously misdiagnosed. A
\nwhite paper is a deeply researched report on a specific topic that presents a
\nsolution to a problem within an industry.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\nhave the following components:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n
Title Page:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\ntitle, is first thing your readers will see of your white paper. Make it
\neye-catching, interesting, and welcoming. Your title or headline takes center
\nstage on your cover, so pay special attention to it.<\/span><\/p>\nIntroduction\/Problem statement:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\nthe white paper will address. The problem needs to be defined and placed into a
\ncontext to ensure it\u2019s understood by the reader. Be concise and inviting when
\nyou write the introduction, be it a welcome note or an abstract. Include why
\nyou wrote the white paper and what you hope the reader will get out of it.
\nRemember that the solution is provided at the end of your paper, not in the
\nintroduction, so don\u2019t give too much away in the introduction.<\/span><\/p>\nBackground:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\ninformation required for the reader to grasp the problem and, ultimately, the
\nsolution. The content may be detailed and technical or broad and high-level.
\nThe content typically depends on the problem you are addressing. Research plays
\na very big part in this section of the paper. Reading up on content that\u2019s
\nalready published on your topic will inspire you to come up with unique angles.
\nIt will also help you pinpoint content gaps, which you can address in your
\nwhite paper.<\/span><\/p>\nSolution:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\nthen be presented. It is developed and argued for using the gathered evidence
\nand the expertise of the author, based largely in part on the research
\nconducted. The solution provides the \u2018ta-da\u2019 moment of the white paper.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/h3>\n
<\/span><\/h3>\n
<\/span><\/h3>\n
Conclusion:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\nmajor findings. Recommendations based on the solution should also be included. In
\nthe end, a good white paper will give the reader an \u201cAha!\u201d moment upon
\ncompletion.<\/span><\/p>\nReferences:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\npaper must be cited in this section. It adds validity to the document. It also gives
\nthe reader content for further research. Remember that you need to cite any
\ninformation that is not public knowledge and that you didn\u2019t know before
\nbeginning your research. I\u2019m not overly concerned with how you cite your
\nreferences (MLA, APA or otherwise), but I\u2019m very concerned that you
\ncite your references<\/u><\/i><\/b>.<\/u> The reader should be able to locate
\nand read your sources, based on your citation. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\nwith footnotes, or annotations and a final section listing sources. The most
\nimportant thing to consider when citing sources is that they are accurate and
\nrelevant.<\/span><\/p>\nResearch:<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n
\ninformation from online references, industry resources, business journals, and
\nthe course or other textbooks. White papers are data-focused, so they should be
\nsupported by significant research.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\nfrom thought leaders and experts in the field, be sure to mention them by name.
\nApart from your regular research online or at the library, a great way to find
\nreliable sources is to read journals and reports already published on the same
\ntopic.<\/span><\/p>\n
\ninterviews with people that work within the realm of your topic. Connecting
\nwith top-level personalities might be difficult, but if you construct and
\ndeliver your angle convincingly, they might just answer your call (or email.)<\/span><\/p>\n
\nand standard margins. The paper should be single spaced and page numbers should
\nbe included.<\/span><\/p>\n
\nsections to break up the text so it\u2019s easier to read. Using subheadings is
\nvital for the reader. It helps with information retention and research
\npurposes. A reader might want to highlight specific areas and subheadings will
\nmake it easier to find relevant notes later. Remember to never skip the
\nproofreading and editing stage. All the work you\u2019ve put in with the research
\nand writing can be ruined with silly typos or a duplicated sentence.<\/span><\/p>\nGrading:<\/span><\/h3>\n
Grading on this
\nassignment will be based upon a variety of factors including: <\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/span>ability to think
\ncritically about a topic and the sources necessary to study that topic<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\nideas into a focused, organized, supported argument<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\na grammatical, stylistic, mechanically correct paper<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
\naccurately and usefully<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
