Expert answer:Students are to post at least 3 problems encountered in either writing their rough draft and/or pertaining to appropriately citing their paper. Instructions:Each students answer to the question should be between 500-1000 words. A minimum of two references need to be used in the development of your answer.Example of assignment: Professor and class, We are officially on week five; the light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter! When reading the forum assignment, I usually rack my brain to meet the required wicket points, but this week it is a mental obstacle course of trying to narrow it down to three problems. My first problem I have encountered while composing my rough draft is the same problem most of us have been struggling with throughout this course. Proper APA formatting and citations! I believe I have improved and made progress since week one, and hope to continue improving over the next 3 weeks before the final assignment is due and this class closes out. In last week’s forum, I posed the question in a response of “why are there so many different writing styles, why not just stick with one across the board”? I did a little research on it and found a viable answer. APA style of writing has a huge focus on dates, which is very important when presenting facts and peer reviewed information. APA also encourages paraphrasing as opposed to quoting directly from the source, which shows the student has a mental grasp on the information they are presenting instead of regurgitating someone else’s words. The third reason for APA in clinical writing is it incorporates headings and subcategories into the papers, which makes the information flow more professionally (McDonald, 2011). My second problem has been with my sources. When researching my topic on civil forfeiture, I found a plethora of sources on the history of it, and how it came into existence, but I am still struggling to find outline specific information that I need to finish my paper. Sources that provide information on budgetary impacts on police departments that have restrained the use of that specific tactic, and positive community impact from asset seizing, such as programs that have been established to feed those funds back into the community. It is still a work in progress; I just need to hone my research skills a bit more on this. My third problem has been time management. Everyone has things going on in their life and sometimes priorities like college can get bumped down on the list. I am on deployment currently, and it has been feeling like I am getting assignments submitted just under the wire with little time to spare. There are several good articles on time management, with suggestions like writing lists, making short term goals with rewards when you meet these goals, and trying to get to a mental state of believing you have good time management to undermine the overwhelmed feelings (Macan, Shahani, Dipbove, & Philips, 1990). One of the ways I believe I am going to counter this is by waiting until I get back to the States to start my Bachelor degree after this class is complete. I wish everyone good luck on their rough drafts and final papers!Respectfully,CaraReferencesMacan, T. H., Shahani, C., Dipboye, R. L., & Phillips, A. P. (1990).
