Instructions: Using a case study approach, write a four to eight page research-based paper using yourself as the research subject by answering the assigned research questions: What have you learned about research at an introductory level? How do you evaluate or critique this from a biblical, Christian perspective? These two questions above are not written as level one headings in APA formatting, however, a good way to organize your document would be to use these two ideas as appropriately written level one headings. Add additional levels of headings as appropriate to organize your content. You will use the APA skills that you honed during Module/Week 3, the case study skills you developed in Module/Week 5, and all the content you studied throughout all the modules/weeks of this course. Current APA format needs to be demonstrated in all aspects of this assignment. Proper APA formatting is required as part of the content of this assignment. Your paper must include a properly-formatted title page, four to eight pages of content with correct APA formatting throughout, including proper citations and levels of headings, and a reference page. The title page and references page are in addition to the assigned four to eight pages of content. Maintain consistency between your citations and reference page. Your paper must include at least four references to sufficiently support your paper. Required references include your Introduction to Research textbook and the Publication Manual, and at least two additional scholarly references, plus whatever other content-related sources you would like to include. Remember, use current APA format throughout (including your title page, running head, author note, appropriate vocabulary and sentence structure, introductory statement, in-text citations, page numbers, levels of headings throughout the document, a conclusion statement, and consistency between your in-text citations and references). You may use your Discussion Board Forum posts and additional personal reflection. Your answer will be unlike anyone elses, and that is what is expected. Be sure to consult your Publication Manual for proper formatting for your in-text citations and references for these other sources.
