Hlt207-The research paper is the impact of the affordable care act (obamacare) on immigrants.

The research paper is the impact of the affordable care act (obamacare) on immigrants. This is mainly covering documented immigrants but can venture into undocumented immigrants.

The required length of the Final Research paper itself is 9 pages to 12 pages. This includes about 9 pages in the body, plusa separate title page, abstract page & reference pages. All papers must follow APA 6.0 format for research papers. Your title page should follow the samples found in BBs Rubrics and Samples section (fancy artwork, borders, etc. are notacceptable). You must include at least the three different, referenced, peer-reviewed sources reflected in your Res. Paper Proposal. Only in addition, can you use assigned readings or the textbook for this class. Internet sources that include information other than web-available journals are NOT acceptable for this assignment as part of the required three sources. Brochures or interviews (of experts in the field) also are not acceptable as part of the minimum number of sources required. Such sources may be used – but only as supplements to the three ‘acceptable’ sources required for this assignment.

Your Final Research Paper is due Tuesday, April 22th at 11:59pm. You may use content from your Research Paper Proposal and article review in your final Research Paper. Ten points will be deducted from your earned grade for failure to provide sufficient and appropriate sources, or for not following the APA 6.0 format. The paper is to be your writing, not that of someone else. The research paper proposal, article reviewand the research paper will be graded on thoroughness, accuracy, organization, professional sounding language, ability to paraphrase, grammatical correctness, spelling, appropriate use of research materials, use of APA 6 citations, writing style and mechanics, and evidence of original thought. All information which is not original must be referenced carefully. If you have questions, be sure to ask before handing in your paper.

Direct quotes must be avoided as much as possible. Instead, paraphrasing, a very valuable skill, must be used instead of direct quotes as much as possible. Important: You must avoid very long direct quotes (over 40 words), since they are normally employed for special circumstances such as sections of law, pros, biblical sections, etc. when to avoid them would be detrimental to their intent. APA6.0 requires special formatting for those. Points will be deducted if you use them.
