Structure

This is the general structure of the paper. You can use a structure that best fits your creativity and professional writing style.

Introduction Why is this issue important? What are key terms that reader should know, if any?
Summary What are the key aspects of the issue? What people, leaders, companies, or organizations are involved?
Discussion This is the primary part of the paper. What is your opinion, discussion, and thought on the issue? What are its implications for the industry, the profession, and/or society? What do you think?
Conclusion What other questions are important and related to this topic? What else should we think about in the present and future?
Do not use headings for each section. Simply write this as a standard paper with a good summary and analysis.

Add the two article citations at the end of your last page, each with article name, author, source, date, link.
Single spaced in a Microsoft Word document.
No long quotes – you can use key phrases and statistics only.
