PART 3: PARENTING ACTION PLAN
You’ve crafted your case study. You’ve done your research on
the topic. Now it’s time to identify some solutions in the form
of a Parenting Action Plan.
Your Parenting Action Plan should be about 2000-3000 word in
length and follow APA style (7th edition). Be sure to use in-text
citations and include a reference list.
Copy and paste your case study at the beginning of your
document to provide the context for your research essay. (This
will not count towards your word total.)
Your essay should be written in your own words and you should
always cite any ideas that come from another source. Do not use
quotations or copy verbatim from another author.
Your action plan can build on your existing research essay, but
the action plan itself will include a few additional components
(denoted with an * below). The research you have done should
be carefully woven into your action plan. In other words, don’t
just copy and paste your research essay and tack on more words.
Use the research to justify the actions you are proposing.
· Statement of the problem: A statement of the key issues that
must be explored in order to resolve your case study.(Thi s can
be the same as the statement in your research essay)
· Incorporation of at least 10 credible sources from within the
past 10 years that can be used to support a parenting action
plan. At least 5 of these sources must be scholarly social
science research articles, and at least 3 of the sources must have
been published within the last 2 years.
· *Incorporation of parenting or developmental theories to
provide a framework for the proposed action plan.
· *Description of potential sites of impact (Step 6 of the

2. Planning Table).
· *Identify an action plan grounded in research that may address
concerns posed by the case study (Step 7 of the Planning
Table).
· Correct use of in-text citations and corresponding reference
list (APA 7th edition).
· Use of APA 7th edition format (1” margins, standard font,
double spacing, page numbers, etc.).
· Demonstration of strong writing skills.
Submit your essay to the assignments folder and run the paper
through Turnitin.com (You can do this from within the
assignments folder. No need to use a separate account). If you
submit your work before the deadline, you can use the Turnitin
