Using the tools and project planning activities you have completed thus far, it is time for you to begin writing the first part of the Introduction section of your proposal. Create headers that match the Table of Contents and ensure that you address each of the elements detailed below in your assignment. You will receive faculty feedback on this section and should use the edits provided by your Faculty Project Advisor in future edits or additions to your paper. A scholarly paper typically requires multiple edits and the writing of this type of major paper is an ongoing process. 

Additionally, check with your Faculty Project Advisor for recommendations on the length of each section. This may vary based upon faculty preference and topic, complexity of the project. Please note, though, that a literature review/synthesis is not a restating of findings of each article and is not exhaustive in length. It includes a synthesis of the current state of the literature on your topic and typically will address findings of 8 to 15  articles, though this may vary. Use the evidence table and literature synthesis tools to create this part of the introduction. 

Begin your paper with the following front matter for your proposal:

• APA formatted title page incorporating any advisors from your Faculty Project Advisor
• A placeholder for the Abstract which will be developed later in the semester
• A draft of the working Table of Contents.

in this assignment, you will develop the first drafts of the following Introduction sections of your proposal: 

• Background and Significance – description of how the problem is described in the literature and what is the general impact of the problem

• Description of the organization – missing, values, purpose, structure, etc…

• Organizational Needs Assessment – leave a header for this section and provide no text at this time. You will develop this content in an upcoming assignment.

• Local Problem Statement – leave a header for this section and provide no text at this time. You will develop this content in an upcoming assignment.

• Literature Review and Synthesis and Possible Solutions –
  •  
    • Search Strategy- description of how you searched the literature for evidence including databases searched, terms, inclusion criteria, number or articles screened, and numbers of articles meeting inclusion criteria that were retained for the final full text review.
      •  
        • In the text refer the reader to Appendix A which be the Summary of Evidence Table which has been revised to include recommended edits from your Faculty Project Advisor.
    • Synthesized key findings from external evidence to support the project. What interventions have been used to improve the problem? What outcomes were achieved as the result of the interventions? What facilitators and barriers of implementation of the interventions were identified

This part of the paper should be formatted using 7th Edition APA conventions. A working Reference list should be included with this submission. The new text should be added to the Title Page and Table of Contents which were previously submitted.
