In your final paper’s introduction,
Define an issue that affects your current profession or programmatic field of study.
This will be presented in your introduction. Explain the overall background of the professional area and the background of the issue.
Tip: Use your discussion forum post from Week 2 as the starting point for introducing your topic and the issues you will consider.
Include your thesis statement:
Example: Although integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the medical field poses some ethical considerations, it has the potential to revolutionize healthcare practices, ushering in new diagnostic tools, treatment programs, and patient care paradigms.
In your final paper’s body paragraph 1,
State your topic sentence:
Example: Applications of AI in the healthcare field offer invaluable time saving tools that can streamline processes, but any discussion of implementation requires a deeper look into the potential for ethical concerns such as patient privacy and data collection.
Tip: Use your Week 2 Research Notebook as the starting point for introducing your topic and the issues you will consider.
Describe the field of study or professional area and how the issue you’ve identified affects it.
Tip: As stated, the issue suggests multiple possible solutions so that your research can comprise a diverse range of perspectives.
Identify the first scholarly, peer-reviewed, or other credible source you have chosen to explore on a topic problem in your current profession or programmatic field of study.
Example: In the article, “Ethical Principles of Using Artificial Intelligence in Public Administration,” Karpenko (2019) delves into the ethical considerations arising from the intersection of AI and medicine, offering insights crucial to steering the course of AI implementation in the healthcare sector.
Evaluate the credibility of your source (Is it scholarly? Is it biased? Is it current?).
Summarize its main points in relation to your topic.
Propose a creative solution to the issue that can be supported with research in subsequent paragraphs.
In your final paper’s body paragraph 2,
State your topic sentence:
Example: The predictive capabilities of AI pose opportunities that will foster more immediate access to necessary care and offers protections for patient data and privacy.
Identify the second scholarly, peer-reviewed, or other credible source you have chosen to explore on a topic problem in your current profession or programmatic field of study.
Describe the issue or topic that the second scholarly, peer-reviewed, or other credible source provides information on.
Summarize the article’s findings on the identified issue in relation to your topic.
Interpret the information in your chosen articles.
Comment on why the article is useful to the topic, including how it contributes to a deeper understanding of the problem discussed, and what approaches or solutions to the problem it suggests.
Consider how the article illuminates the effects on the profession or professionals within the discipline and potential short-term and/or long-term impacts the problem is having on the profession or field of study.
Accurately and ethically incorporate quotes from your sources with proper APA citation.
Example: In the article, “Managing the Medical Matrix” Maurer (2022) suggests, “AI is something more than a predictive model. AI uses models to perform frequent, high-volume, computerized tasks, and it comes in several forms” (p. 114).
In your final paper’s body paragraph 3,
State your topic sentence that builds from your thesis and guides the paragraph in relation to both of the supporting articles and identifies a possible solution.
Example: With greater attention to the potential privacy issues related to AI in the healthcare field, this incredible tool can be implemented safely and effectively, resulting in greater access to diagnostic tools, treatment programs, and improved efficacy of our overloaded systems.
Describe the issue and propose solutions for addressing it in the context of your chosen topic.
Explain how the solution could be implemented and analyze the practicality of the solution.
Identify the third scholarly, peer-reviewed, or other credible source you have chosen, and explain whether it supports this solution.
Provide a brief summary of the main points and the findings presented in the article as well as the author’s perspective on the problem.
Comment on why the article is useful to the topic, including how it contributes to a deeper understanding of the problem discussed, and what approaches or solutions to the problem it suggests.
Summarize the professional response to the ideas presented.
Analyze the practicality of a solution (Is it feasible? Is it logical? How can it be implemented?).
Accurately and ethically incorporate quotes from your sources with proper APA citation.
Example: Karpenko (2019) suggests, “AI can be implemented safely and effectively when we anticipate potential issues before they present themselves and create safeguards against them” (p. 119).
In your final paper’s conclusion paragraph,
Restate your thesis.
Connect the ideas presented to show why the topic is an important one, while highlighting the major takeaways from the articles and relating them to the thesis.
On a separate page, your references page should list any and all sources cited in your paper in alphabetical order using APA 7th Edition style. For example,
Karpenko, Y. (2019). Ethical principles of using artificial intelligence in public administration. Bulletin of NADU. Public Administration, 4, 93–97.
Maurer, L. G. (2022). Managing the medical matrix: A “dais” for artificial intelligence in health care (and beyond). Journal of Law, Technology & the Internet, 13(1), 109–145.
