ASHFORD BUS 680 Week 6 Final Paper
Focus of the Final Paper
Each person must complete a research paper
addressing one of the following topics or a mutually agreed upon topic between
the student and instructor:
- Training Needs Analysis
- Training Strategies for Small and Medium Sized
Businesses: One Size Doesn’t Fit All
- Management Development Techniques
- Training Evaluation: New Techniques and Strategies
- The Learning Organization: Three Companies That Have
Made it a Reality
- Technical Training: A “How To” Guide to Enhancing
Technical KSA’s
- Other topic approved by instructor
These papers are to reflect the current “state
of the art” in the area and should reflect both academic and professional
(practical) orientations. The paper should review the available research, discuss
the implications of that research for the topic area, and provide conclusions.
The paper should be organized into the following areas:
1.
Introduction: The area of research should be described and
the purpose of the research. That is, describe the topic area in terms of (1)
its relationship to training and (2) what you want to be able to contribute to
the training literature by writing this paper.
2.
Review
of the literature: Organize the
literature into logical streams of thought related to your topic area. Within
each of these areas summarize what the literature has to say. Be sure to
indicate in your discussion whether the information is based on empirical data
or just the opinion of the author.
3.
Implications
of the literature: Again, organize the
implications of the literature in a manner that logically builds the case for
your conclusions (which you will present in the next section). For each of your
implications be sure to reference the literature related to that implication.
Be sure to indicate whether the implication is one that has already been made
in the literature or if this is one that is original to you. You should
identify in this section important areas related to your topic that are missing
from the literature.
4.
Conclusions: This is where you tie all the pieces
together. Make sure your conclusions are organized in a logical order that
states what you have concluded relative to the purpose of your paper. Be sure
that these conclusions are justified. For example, conclusions based upon
empirical fact have more weight than those based upon opinion. Opinions shared
by many in the literature have more weight than those of only one author.
