GUIDELINES FOR THE LIBRARY RESEARCH PAPER
Do not simply repeat a manualized treatment (e.g. CBT for veterans). If you choose CBT you MUST
include another treatment approach to pair with it. Do not choose a first year practice approach or one
that we have not covered in this class. Examples used in course; Mindfulness, systematic desensitization, Evidence based Expressive treatments, Art therapy, the empty chair, Dialectiacal Behavioral Therapy, Transference Focused Therapy, Schema Therapy,. Use an approach suitable for work with adult individuals and their support systems, not families, or groups. Short use of case material is integrated throughout so please pick a mental health problem which one of your clients as exhibited.. Use phases of treatment as your subheadings. Proof read your paper. Do not over rely on one or two citations. Do not use first year texts. Do not use narrative from progress reporting e.g.
�Client states that��This is an academic paper which should comply with the APA style manual. Usecurrent citations. [ ]
1. Select a disorder or special population. [ ] A mental disorder present in a case you are holding is
preferred so you can use examples of interventions throughout.
2. Select an intervention strategy covered in class. Taking the practice method selected discover how
that method is employed throughout all phases of intervention. If there is no literature on the phase of
treatment (such as referral), please use other sources of information. Cover all phases including:
Issues in referral for this particular type of population. How does the client come into the system? Is
there typically a history with other systems of care? In what segment (s) of the continuum of care are
you most likely to be working and why? What might influence client use of mental health care?[ ]

Methods of engagement given the problem area. (e.g. What issues are involved in engaging a client
who has anorexia and what must you do to establish rapport and empathy? HOW will you engage
given these issues? Why are these practice aspects important given the case and problem area?
Discuss engaging diverse groups of clients-what must you do differently with those from different
cultural groups.) [ ]
Discuss what is included in the assessment framework using the practice model chosen? Issues
in culture and diversity must be a part of this section. Remember that your assessment should be
based on the practice intervention selected, not just DSM diagnosis. If you are using CBT, HOW
would CBT or IPT assess this case? Please use some analysis of case material rather than simply
reporting. Why might someone have certain dynamics going on, certain symptomatology, etc.
Include a short biopsychosocial assessment and analysis of what factors influenced symptoms
presentation.
What neurobiological issues come out in the assessment and how do you know they are present?
Present DSM diagnosis(es) [ ]
What methods of assessment can be employed using a valid & reliable measure? (Consult material
in the DSM 5 on assessment instruments. [ ]
Integrate relevant cultural factors of the case and use citations to support your assessment. Note
that Caucasians are not one group, Latinos are not one group, etc. [ ]
What is the treatment plan and what are the treatment goals? Remember to consult information tied
to the intervention you are using [ ]
Discuss issues in the worker client relationship: your own feelings, transference &
countertransference, values & experiences that may affect motivation or resistance in you and the
client system in treatment. Why are these issues present? What will you do differently given these
issues? How will you do it?[ ]
What contracting issues must be set up given this problem and in this practice model? Why is the
contract necessary? [ ]
Discuss methods of intervention in the middle phase of treatment. How is culturally competent
treatment used in this phase? Your intervention in the middle phase should derive from your
assessment issues. Tell me why you doing what you are doing. Go beyond telling what interventions
you will use. How will you institute these interventions? The middle phase should represent the bulk
of your paper and should be detailed, i.e. several kinds of interventions not just a couple. [ ]
How will you engage and attend to issues in body, mind, and brain? [ ]
How is termination performed with this model and how do you know it is time for termination? What
are the issues & plan? [ ]
Discuss evaluation strategies in the practice model. . Evaluation should follow the same practice
intervention as in the assessment. Remember to include a valid and reliable assessment measure
as a part of your evaluation. [ ]
Discuss methods of follow-up in the practice model. Why might follow-up be important? [ ].
You may use one or more than one practice models but you must tell me why you are doing so.
Please comment on social justice issues as they impact problem presentation and treatment [ ]. obj.
Discuss your role and identity as a clinical social worker; what makes your domain different from other
professionals? What leadership responsibilities do you have in team activities? [ ].
What ethical issues are involved in working with this group? What social work values intersect with
these ethical issues? [ ]

Do not present case material with no explanation of your practice model assessment or
theoretically-based intervention strategies. This assignment is not simply a case study. You may
use a case or cases as illustrative material of how to apply the interventions.
Use APA style. APA style includes the use of headings and subheadings. Remember to start with
an introduction and end with a conclusion. Do not use lengthy citations; rather, paraphrase material
to make your point. When you quote directly, you must include pagination and attribution. Do not
simply link quotes together with some narrative. If you are unclear about APA style, please consult
the manual or see me. Use Times Roman 12 point. [ ]
Use a variety of citations. Do not rely solely on one or two texts, and not introductory texts such as
Hepworth & Larsen, or solely classroom readings. Do a search for citations including refereed
journal articles [ ].

Give me a hard copy and turn a copy in to turnitin.com so you and I can see if you cited properly.

-In the first paragraph, state your argument or the idea that you will
be discussing and briefly outline how your idea fits within the main
argument of the text.
-The introduction should provide a brief summary of what you read
and how you will apply and evaluate a particular aspect and/or
concept(s) related to the assigned reading. This is a focused statement
of your reaction and/ or response to the reading.
-If you need help consider the following: How did the reading surprise
you? Did it make you think differently about anything? Yes/no? How?
What particular point(s) or argument(s) stood out? How do you think
the author would respond to current events today? Is a concept or
idea proposed by the author useful to think with? How so?
• Body:
-The body should contain paragraphs that provide support for your
position. Each paragraph should contain and evaluate one aspect
related to the larger argument or statement presented in the
introduction.
-Decide on the key parts of the reading that will help focus your ideas.
-Develop your ideas by adding examples, quotations, and details to
your paragraphs. Be sure to include quotes from the text, and use this
citation format: (Author Year: pg.#) for example: (Mead 1928: 22).
-Make sure the last sentence of each paragraph leads into the next
paragraph.
-Check your thesis statement and make sure the topic sentence of
each paragraph supports it.
• Conclusion:
-This can be a restatement of what you said in your paper. It can also
be a comment, which focuses your overall response.

GRADING STANDARDS FOR RESPONSE PAPERS:
A: The argument is clearly articulated and logically developed, using relevant
evidence. The evidence used is of high quality, cleverly ordered to support the
argument with an original and creative synthesis of materials and displaying
understanding of wider issues. The presentation is of high standard.
B: The argument is well proposed, but the structure is not fully developed. The
evidence used is quite extensive but sources are not fully utilized which limits the
ability to be creative and deal with a full range of issues. The presentation is solid
but can be improved.
C: The argument is satisfactory, with some limitations, but the structure is not well
thought out. The evidence used is adequate, but insufficient to develop fully the
argument or display much originality. The presentation is adequate and could be
improved.
D: While the essay displays a basic understanding of the subject, the argument lacks
coherence and logical development. The evidence provided is basic or does not
sufficiently support the argument nor display originally or understanding of wider
issues. The presentation is not of sufficient standard.
F: The presentation is well below acceptable standard. The essay is incoherent with
glaring misunderstandings.

The visual culture of the Weimar Republic vitally inspired many threads of European Modernism through its vibrant and nuanced engagement with new systems of urbanity. Sociopolitical, economic, and sexual roles are just a few of the modes of change affected by Weimar Modernism in the broader context of the European stage. Feminism, political engagement, and aesthetic theories in Europe and the UK were crucially influenced by visualities and discourses to emerge from the glitter and grit of the Metropolis in Germany.
In the first component of the assignment, students will build on their visual analysis by choosing additional works of art/design for comparison and write a research paper. The second component of this assignment is to engage in a studio project relating the student’s visual analysis research and one societal theme discussed in class (sociopolitical, economic, etc.). This studio project can be a theoretical visualization, a collection, a product design, etc. This assignment is intended to contextualize the visual analysis, and to engage with studio practice from a historically inspired perspective. The paper should be 6 pages in length, double ­spaced, using 12­ point Times New Roman font. Use the Chicago style for citations and bibliography. Students need at least six sources. You must limit your use of Internet sources, and you must include: a. At least one academic journal article; b. At least two books (one of your books must be an academic text, published by a university press); c. Primary sources (actual period documents and/or objects); and d. Secondary sources (writings about your topic by critics, historians, and theorists).

The first part of this research paper, I am going to analysis my favorite art works “senecio” and “Cat and Bird” by Paul Klee. I will also do an comparison research paper on two artworks. The second part, I am going to talk about my own design which is a poster. The poster is inspired by Bauhaus design, and I will compare the work I did and Paul Klee did. However, Both works are showing modernism and functionalism.( I will upload the pictures )
For this research paper, I choose working on Bauhaus design. i had done thesis statement. Please do a research paper based on my thesis statement and use ***Chicago manual style footnotes and citation !!!l
