Choose a health science-related topic for your "term paper," and present that topic to me for feedback and approval. Present your proposal in two pages double spaced, noting the subject's novelty and relevance (defined below); also comment on the availability of library resources/materials on which you will base your paper.

Relevant: Addresses an important health problem, serious, affecting many people, interesting for the research community.

References: At least three references must be included from scholarly sources (journal articles). Quoted materials should not exceed 10% of the total paper (since the focus of these assignments is critical thinking). Use your own words and build on the ideas of others. Materials copied verbatim from external sources must be enclosed in quotation marks. In-text reference citations are required as well as a list of references at the end of the assignment. (APA is required.)

Organization: Subheadings should be used to organize your paper according to the questions.

The following items will be assessed in particular:

• Achievement of learning outcomes for this assignment
• Relevance-All content is connected to the question.
• Precision-Specific question is addressed. Statements, facts, and statistics are specific and accurate.
• Depth of discussion-Points that lead to deeper issues are presented and integrated.
• Breadth-Multiple perspectives and references, and multiple issues/factors are considered.
• Evidence-Points are well supported with facts, statistics, and references.
• Logic-Discussion makes sense; conclusions are logically supported by premises, statements, or factual information.
• Clarity-Writing is concise and understandable and contains sufficient detail or examples.
• Objectivity-Avoids the use of first person and subjective bias.
