Research Paper Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
The final project for this course is the creation of a research
paper. You will be examining organizational behavior and how
it affects corporate strategy and decision making. This project
will enable you to identify alternatives and recommend
thoroughly defended strategies that leaders can use for best
practices.
You will select an organizational behavior (OB) topic to
research and write about. The topic must be approved by the
instructor. This final product represents an authentic
demonstration of the competencies achieved in this course as
you put into action all that you have learned. The project is
divided into three milestones and a final product, which will be
submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold
learning and ensure quality final submissions.
Critical Elements
Expectation of Analysis: Please see the Final Product Rubric
below for grading criteria. Pay close attention to each critical
element and how you will address it in your final paper.
1. Define the central OB issue or problem.
a. Substantiate multiple aspects of the problem or issue in
detail.
i. Include factors like:
a. Key players and their role in the OB issue or problem
(internal and/or external)
b. Key stakeholder groups (i.e., employees, customers,
communities) and their role in the OB issue or problem (internal
and/or external)
c. Values and behaviors (internal)
d. Culture and structure (internal)
e. Design processes (internal)
f. Reward systems (internal)
g. Economic and policy instruments used by the government
(external)
2. Recommend at least three solutions for the issue or problem.
a. Explain each solution and its relevance to the context of the
OB issue.
b. Defend the selection of each solution by:
i. Interpreting and applying course concepts and theories to
your defense when they are applicable
ii. Citing specific examples/scenarios showing the application
of your solutions
iii. Recommending strategies for success that are supported by
valid and reliable scholarly resources
3. Determine an implementation strategy for each proposed
solution. Be sure to include deliberate implementation strategies
around OB and best practices that take into consideration the
dynamics of the groups involved.
4. Conclusion
a. Write a summary focusing on key elements of your final
product.
b. Tie the key elements of your proposals and implementation
strategies to the issue, highlighting the positive effects the
proposal will have on the performance of the organization.
The final project has three milestones. The purpose of
milestones is to keep you on target and allow time for
incorporating instructor feedback. Milestone 3 is a “dress
rehearsal” for the final product; the same rubric is used to
access Milestone 3 and your final product.
· Milestone 3: Rough draft “dress rehearsal” of research paper
(Module Seven: 10–12 pages, not including title and reference
pages)
· Final Paper: Final research paper (Module Nine: 10–12 pages,
not including title and reference pages)
Milestone 1: Proposal of an OB topic
· Wal-Mart’s Business Practices
Milestone 2:Outline of Final Paper
You will create a robust and comprehensive outline of your
research paper. The outline should include:
· Title of paper
· Abstract
· Introduction
· Major points/arguments
· At least three solutions
· List scholarly resources to support your major
points/arguments and solutions. At least six scholarly references
are required.
Milestone 3: Draft of Research Paper: “Practice Opportunity” or
“Dress Rehearsal”
You will create a draft of your research paper. This is a practice
opportunity to see how your final paper is coming along.
Grading is low-stakes and will give you a good picture of which
areas in your paper are in need of improvement and which areas
are okay. Review your outline in order to address each section,
and be sure to include a conclusion that ties the paper together.
The paper must be in APA format and include at least six
scholarly resources. The page length requirement is 10 to 12
pages (not including title and reference pages).
Final Paper
You will complete the final version of your research paper. Be
sure to use the feedback from the instructor on your draft and
incorporate all of the milestones into a collated final product.
Format
All milestones should be completed as Word documents. The
final version of your paper should be 10–12 pages (not
including title page, references or appendices), double-spaced,
use 12-point Times New Roman font, have 1-inch margins, and
include citations in APA format.

Research Paper Guidelines and RubricOverviewThe final projec.docx

  • 1. Research Paper Guidelines and Rubric Overview The final project for this course is the creation of a research paper. You will be examining organizational behavior and how it affects corporate strategy and decision making. This project will enable you to identify alternatives and recommend thoroughly defended strategies that leaders can use for best practices. You will select an organizational behavior (OB) topic to research and write about. The topic must be approved by the instructor. This final product represents an authentic demonstration of the competencies achieved in this course as you put into action all that you have learned. The project is divided into three milestones and a final product, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. Critical Elements Expectation of Analysis: Please see the Final Product Rubric below for grading criteria. Pay close attention to each critical element and how you will address it in your final paper. 1. Define the central OB issue or problem. a. Substantiate multiple aspects of the problem or issue in detail. i. Include factors like: a. Key players and their role in the OB issue or problem (internal and/or external) b. Key stakeholder groups (i.e., employees, customers, communities) and their role in the OB issue or problem (internal and/or external) c. Values and behaviors (internal)
  • 2. d. Culture and structure (internal) e. Design processes (internal) f. Reward systems (internal) g. Economic and policy instruments used by the government (external) 2. Recommend at least three solutions for the issue or problem. a. Explain each solution and its relevance to the context of the OB issue. b. Defend the selection of each solution by: i. Interpreting and applying course concepts and theories to your defense when they are applicable ii. Citing specific examples/scenarios showing the application of your solutions iii. Recommending strategies for success that are supported by valid and reliable scholarly resources 3. Determine an implementation strategy for each proposed solution. Be sure to include deliberate implementation strategies around OB and best practices that take into consideration the dynamics of the groups involved. 4. Conclusion a. Write a summary focusing on key elements of your final product. b. Tie the key elements of your proposals and implementation strategies to the issue, highlighting the positive effects the proposal will have on the performance of the organization. The final project has three milestones. The purpose of milestones is to keep you on target and allow time for incorporating instructor feedback. Milestone 3 is a “dress rehearsal” for the final product; the same rubric is used to access Milestone 3 and your final product. · Milestone 3: Rough draft “dress rehearsal” of research paper (Module Seven: 10–12 pages, not including title and reference pages) · Final Paper: Final research paper (Module Nine: 10–12 pages,
  • 3. not including title and reference pages) Milestone 1: Proposal of an OB topic · Wal-Mart’s Business Practices Milestone 2:Outline of Final Paper You will create a robust and comprehensive outline of your research paper. The outline should include: · Title of paper · Abstract · Introduction · Major points/arguments · At least three solutions · List scholarly resources to support your major points/arguments and solutions. At least six scholarly references are required. Milestone 3: Draft of Research Paper: “Practice Opportunity” or “Dress Rehearsal” You will create a draft of your research paper. This is a practice opportunity to see how your final paper is coming along. Grading is low-stakes and will give you a good picture of which areas in your paper are in need of improvement and which areas are okay. Review your outline in order to address each section, and be sure to include a conclusion that ties the paper together. The paper must be in APA format and include at least six scholarly resources. The page length requirement is 10 to 12 pages (not including title and reference pages). Final Paper You will complete the final version of your research paper. Be sure to use the feedback from the instructor on your draft and incorporate all of the milestones into a collated final product. Format
