Thanks.<br /><br />Daran<br /><br /><p><strong>CHAPTER ONE </strong></p><p><strong>INTRODUCTION</strong></p><p>Thereareavarietyofmethods ofdividingthepaper. Thethesis may bedivided bychapters or sections. Theimportant thingis to remain consistent throughout theentirethesis.  Your formatting should be similar to that used within this example, which closely mirrors the formatting used for the Turabian writing style.  As is consistent with the academic writing style, the start of a new paragraph should be tabbed in from the right, and paragraphs must be double-spaced without an extra space in between paragraphs.</p><p><strong>Formatting</strong></p><p>            Your front matter should be formatted according to the End of Program (EOP) manual (something that is replicated within these guidelines).  Starting with your Introduction, you should have 1 inch margins on all borders. Your pages should be right justified, and sentences double spaced, without an extra space between paragraphs and headings.  For additional formatting requirements please refer to the latest EOP Manual.</p><p> </p><p><strong>CHAPTER FOUR</strong></p><p><strong>FINDINGS & ANALYSIS</strong></p><p>            In addition to this formatting guide, you should also keep a copy of the latest EOP Manual close by.  The EOP manual has some excellent information on the school policies that relate to the capstone.  There are additional templates within the Appendices that you might need, including: 1) Sample of Permission to Quote or Reproduce Copyrighted Material Letter, 2) Sample of IRB Approval Letter – something that you must receive PRIOR to carrying out your research if you want to conduct interviews or experiments with human subjects.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong><strong>Findings and Analysis:  </strong>This section provides the <strong>results of your research and the analytical arguments that will make as a result of your findings</strong>.  In a quantitative project, this section would provide the results of the data collection and an analysis of what it illustrates in empirical terms<strong>. In a qualitative project, you will do the same even if there is no quantitative component. For an empirical qualitative project, you will provide your analysis of the variables you identified and explain what your research findings are.  How did your independent variables affect the outcome (your dependent variable)?  Did you prove or disprove your hypothesis?  What new information have you discovered, if any?</strong>  This section will range from 10-15 pages</p><p> </p><p><strong>CHAPTER FIVE</strong></p><p><strong>CONCLUSION</strong></p><p>            As you go to submit your capstone draft, make sure you do not forget to incorporate required elements noted within the EOP Manual.  Failure to do so can result in a loss of points on your paper. In your reviews, make sure that you are also correcting any formatting issues. </p><p><strong>Things to Keep in Mind</strong></p><p><em>Tone of Voice and Writing Style</em></p><p>            As has been previously stated, your thesis is a scholarly research paper.  As a result it should mirror the tone of voice found in published peer-reviewed journals. Along these lines you should use measurable academic or scientific phraseology and avoid emotive phrases, slang, semi-slang and jargon.  We do not write in literary style – we must write academically, like scientists, and as if we are publishing. Here is a simple, but useful website article on academic writing <a href="http://www2.ivcc.edu/rambo/tip_formal_writing_voice.htm">http://www2.ivcc.edu/rambo/tip_formal_writing_voice.htm</a>.  Please note that all of the links provided within this document are here to help you enhance your scholarship, you should not incorporate links within your thesis, unless you are linking your table of contents, list of tables, or list of figures to help readers navigate within your paper. </p>
