Re-write the thesis based on my supervisors comments and the new Literature Review. The thesis is to be 10 chapters, containing about 90000 words, as outlined below;
1- Introduction about 6000-8000 words
2- Literature Review 8000-10000 words
3- Methodology 6000-8000 words
4- Theoretical Framework 8000-10000 words
5- Case Studies -Two chapters 8000-10000 words each
6- Qualitative Results 8000-10000 words
7- Quantitative Results 8000-10000 words
8- Discussion 8000-10000 words
9- Conclusion 8000-10000 words
I have attached a few files:
1- Thesis 3 files, because each file has one of my supervisor’s comments,
It’s bit messy and a bit old because it was the first I wrote. So many things changed after I rewrote my Literature Review with new question and objectives. With this you just need to except the changes then try to update the sources, statistics, etc. However we don’t need the whole thing. You need to divide it into Introduction and Theoretical Framework chapters:
• Introduction. I think it’s better to write it last and I want you to keep the Aziz family story and come back to it in different chapters.
• Theoretical Framework. Start from section 8. You need to update the theories and delete the ones that have no use in the whole thesis.
• Section 10, Research Methods has changed significantly since we (my previous supervisor and I) decided to delete the focus group and the new media platform because we had too many research tools. See the COC and the new Methodology chapter.
2- COC final document, similar to the thesis files.
3- Literature Review. Rewrite it, based on my supervisor’s comments and update the sources, statistics etc.
4- First draft of Methodology. I’ll send the updated version when I finish it. Rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments and t update the sources, statistics etc.
5- Case Studies. Two chapters devolved and devolving countries. Rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments and update the sources, statistics etc.
6- Qualitative Results. I don’t think you need to make lots of changes here. Rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments and update the sources, statistics etc. Try to fit with thesis writing style.
7- Quantitative Results. Still working on it & I’ll send it when I finish, I don’t think you need to make lots of changes here. Just rewrite it based on my supervisor’s comments, and update the sources, statistics etc . Also, to fit with thesis writing style
8- Discussion – you need to write the whole chapter
9- Conclusion – you need to write the whole chapter

• After you finish the reading, I would like you to please send me a plan and outline for the whole thesis

• Since the maximum words in one order is about 55,000 and I need about 80,000-90,000 words, I am going to place two orders- the first one of about 55000 words to cover;
o Introduction
o Literature Review
o Methodology
o Theoretical Framework
o Case Studies 2 chapters

Then I’ll place another order to cover
o Results -Two chapters
o Discussion
o Conclusion
But I want the same writer to work on both orders so we’ll have one whole thesis written by one writer and in one writing style.

 
I NEED THE DRAFT OF AT LEAST 2-3 PAGES DONE BY 11/03/15 7:00 AM.

In the literature review i need Cover sheet,table of content, body of paper, intro, review the articles, transitional words, conclusion, & bibliography.

Literature Review

Overview: A literature review is an evaluative account of what has been published on a topic by accredited scholars and researchers. The purpose of a literature review is not to create an original argument and support your position with scholarly research (this is the typical college research paper assignment), but instead to summarize and synthesize the available research in the field to assess the value of the research already done by others, identify prevalent trends and discover what research remains to be done in a particular subject area. Literature reviews direct the formation of new research questions and are routinely included in the opening sections of scholarly research reports. A successful literature review must be defined by a guiding concept such as your research objective, the problem or issue you wish to discuss. A literature review is not just a descriptive list of the material available, or a set of summaries (this is an annotated bibliography).
In addition to leaving you a better informed researcher in a particular specialized subject area, writing a literature review helps you develop and demonstrate two valuable skills:
Research: the ability to scan the literature efficiently to identify a set of useful articles and/or books and to obtain those materials.
Critical Evaluation: the ability to apply principles of analysis to identify unbiased and valid studies.
Instructions: In consultation with your instructors and the list of issues provided, select a topic area as the focus of your literature review. General topic selection is due October 1st . A 5% penalty on the assignment will be assessed for failure to do so.
Once you have a subject area, begin the literature review process by familiarizing yourself with the available research on this topic. Don’t try to read everything, but do consider both articles that are recent and research that forms the foundations of this knowledge base.
Narrow your topic area appropriately to make the task of writing your literature review more manageable. For example, Internet access could be your general topic area. Do you want to focus on providing universal global access to this resource or providing equal access to the Internet to persons with disabilities? Given that both of these topics are also overly broad you’ll want to further narrow the specific topic of your literature review with respect to the available research in the area. You may finally focus on providing Internet access to women in third world countries or facilitating Internet access for persons with limited dexterity. Be wary and wise. Given the proliferation of research on the Internet even these topic areas may be too general to allow you to develop a firm grasp of the research area! Your revised topic area must be registered in writing with the instructors prior to November 6th . A 5% penalty on the assignment will be assessed for failure to do so.
Once you have narrowed your topic sufficiently, you’ll want to locate a range of materials published by experts or scholars in this particular area of study. Examining bibliographies to locate reoccurring names can lead you to the works of key researchers in the field. Scanning for titles of studies that are cited repeatedly can also lead you to influential texts in the area. At this point, you’ll want to gather more materials than you plan to include in your literature review to allow for the winnowing out of substandard or poorly related materials.
When you are reading the materials you’ve collected do so with an eye toward writing your literature review. All good literature reviews perform the following tasks:
Provide a tightly-organized investigation of a single thesis or research question by identifying key research on the topic area.
Synthesize the results of previous research into a summary of (1) what is understood to be historically accurate or accepted practice, (2) what practices or policies are still under question of investigation, (3) what practices or policies have not been well addressed by existing research and (4) what areas of the topic still require investigation.
Identify distinct areas of controversy among previous researchers/research results.
Devise questions that need further research.
(These areas could provide good headings to organize your notes and later your writing.)

Scope: All literature reviews will be expected to encompass at least one major controversy in the specific topic area and to explain this disagreement from at least two competing vantage points. Students will be expected to incorporate reviews of at least 7 closely related sources.
Length: Although there is no length requirement, a fair estimate of length, not including bibliography and appendix, would be approximately 6-8 pages for undergraduates.
Technical requirements: All papers must exceed general writing standards for the appropriate college level. Papers that are poorly written, edited or proofread may be penalized a full letter grade. If you are concerned about your writing proficiency, please make use of the Writing Center resources. Consider exchanging papers with another class member to facilitate editing and proofreading.

Papers should comply with APA (American Psychological Association) citation style throughout. APA resources are readily available on-line or through the Writing Center.
Academic Honesty: As per course policy, all papers must represent the student’s individual and original work. Instances of plagiarism, including failure to provide source citations for direct quotations from other authors or paraphrasing their ideas without source attribution, will result in a failing grade for the assignment and likely in the course.

 

A literature review term paper and a PowerPoint presentation
The term paper should consist of literature review of the chosen topic based on multiple references (journal articles, websites, books etc…)

 
The Four Metaparadigms: Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on the basic four metaparadigms/concepts of patient, nurse, health, and environment.

Two Practice-Specific Concepts: Identification, discussion, and documentation from the literature of your perspective on at least two other concepts specific to your own practice.

List of Propositions: A numbered list of at least five propositions or assumption statements that clearly connect the concepts described.

Consider the following questions as you complete your various tasks related to this assignment.

1.

How do I define and employ the four basic metaparadigms of nursing theory in my professional practice?

2.

What are the major concepts I employ that are unique to my professional practice?

3.

What philosophies and theories from the literature of nursing and other disciplines/domains are consistent with these concepts?

4.

How are the concepts of transcultural nursing, the health promotion model, skill acquisition, role theory, and change theory specifically integrated into my philosophy and practice?

5.

What research supports these theories and concepts?

6.

How do I integrate role and change theory into my professional practice and how may these theories be applied to the organization in which I practice?

The paper is to be thoroughly researched and well documented, with relevant material from the nursing theorists presented incorporated into the paper. Use the current edition of the APA Manual throughout the paper. Sources should focus on references from nursing theory but may also include conceptual and theoretical material from other professional domains. The paper, excluding references or appendices, is to be limited to 6-10 pages. Writing should be succinct and well organized, as it is impossible for the facilitator to evaluate form and content separately.
Your philosophy/framework is to be given a title that is appropriate to its content and emphasis.
