Submit an outline of your Research Paper.  The outline must contain Level One Headings (in accordance with APA Style).  A minimum of four headings are required, but more should be used if appropriate for your work.  Use the info provided in the General Forums for your work.

Remember that these headings are caps and lowercase letters, centered, and in bold print.  Find examples by using the APA links provided and checking APA sample papers.

Headings do not contain words or phrases that are in the title of the paper.

A detailed outline is not required but I want to see that you have started organizing your thoughts.  That is the reason for the Level One Headings.  Be sure to check sources to see what they are and how APA format requires them to appear in your paper.  You will find helpful information in Student Resources, under the Resources section of the classroom. 

This assignment is due on Sunday at the end of Week 3.

The title for the paper will be: 

Development and Challenges of Community Policing 

APA headings are NEVER numbered!

Introduction is NEVER used as an APA heading.

Conclusion is usually the last heading for a paper.

Generally, words longer than 4 letters start with a capital letter - but there are exceptions.
