Instructions for final paper: Please look at the feedback from the paper you did for me before, and write the final paper based off the input. I have attached the draft paper that you did for me.
Purpose: Complete an Applied Project Prospectus in OGL 570.
Specifics:
This is an outline for the final prospectus document. Please use APA formatting and the bolded headings and subheadings below to organize your document.
· Use APA (7th edition) Style with a minimum of 15 sources. Make sure to use in-text citations.

· Do not use personal pronouns (I, me, we, us, they, them).
· Do not use contractions (don’t, isn’t, won’t, etc..).

· Since this is a proposal, avoid writing as if the research has already been conducted.
· Avoid the use of unnecessary adjectives or other descriptors (very, extremely,
always, never) and redundancies.
· Be careful of over-reaching claims not supported by academic or your research
· Numbers below 10 are written alphabetically (example, two, three, four). Numbers
