Title of This Paper
John K. Student
Florida International University
CGS 3095 Section U01 – Fall 2013
Abstract
This is a very brief synopsis of the entire paper, stating what the issue is and some idea of the approach or analysis used. You may also wish to state what the paper intends to show. The abstract will be a single paragraph
.
Title of the Paper
1 INTRODUCTION
This is the start of the paper. The first paragraph should briefly introduce the problem or issues, without too much detail. Briefly state what this paper intends to show. All except the title and abstract should be double-spaced, as shown in this format sample. Margins are 1” on all sides. Add a page header as shown. First page number should be 1 (since title and abstract pages do not display the header and do not count toward your page count). Use fonts and font sizes exactly as shown in this document.
Paragraph two should outline the structure of the paper, in a fashion similar to this. This paper is organized as follows. Section 2 presents a description of the problem or issue, Section 3 discusses…, and Section
2. BACKGROUND AND SIGNIFICANCE (or whatever is appropriate for your topic)
Major section numbers should then commence, using the heading formats shown below. Any figures or charts should be small in size, and may not be counted in the page count. They should be labeled “Figure a.b” where a represents the section number, and b represents the sequential numbering of figures within that section. In general, papers for this course should not have figures or charts.
2.1 Section subheading
You must have a minimum of five separate references, from different sources (i.e., do not use five web pages from the same web site). References must be done in APA style, and should start on new page. Each reference is double-spaced and formatted as shown at the end of this format document. References should appear in the References section in the order in which they are used in the body of the paper [1], not alphabetically. Inline citations should use reference document numbers instead of author names [2]. An easy way to get the References format correct is to use the Citation Machine web site to build your references, located at
http://citationmachine.net/index.php?new_style=2&reset=1#here
On the left of this page, under APA, select the type of reference (journal, book, etc.). Then enter the information on the right side, and let this web site build the correct reference format, which can then be copied and pasted into the References section. Build the references as you write the paper, so that you will not have to go back and determine the source of the material in your paper.
Web-based references are permissible, but should be solid articles, not blogs, forum posts, or multimedia links (unless absolutely central to your topic). Do not use Wikipedia, Yahoo Answers, or other non-academic encyclopedias or answer sites. Dictionaries do not count as one of your five references. If the web article is from a newspaper for journal site, treat the article as if it is a print reference. If you have problems determining how to cite a source, contact the instructor for assistance.
For the purposes of this assignment, page count should consider only the body of the paper. Do not count the Title page, Abstract page, or Reference page(s) when determining if you have met the page count requirements. Minimum page count for this assignment is 8 full pages double-spaced.
A research paper should never use first person (I, me, my) or second person (you, yours). Only third person should be used. It should not have a chatty tone as might be found in a magazine column, but should be a formal, educational tone. Do not use questions or contractions. Do not use bulleted or numbered lists. Your goal is to inform the reader about the ethical issue, give him/her an in-depth understanding, and then present conclusions. The paper should have minimal “what is” or “how to”, because this paper’s audience is technologically savvy, and the paper’s goal is to do an ethical analysis.
Make frequent backups of the paper as you work on it. You may choose to leave the formatting details until the very end, but plan at least an hour or two to get the formatting correct. Remember to use the Undo button when Word does not understand what you intended for it to do.
Anti-plagiarism software will be used to check your paper, and all references will be also be checked for accuracy. Simply changing a few words in each sentence and adding a citation is not acceptable – it is plagiarism. You are expected to read and understand the material, and be able to express it in your own words. When you do so, you will still use a citation to give credit to the original author of the material. Plagiarism will result in heavy penalties. For more detailed information on what constitutes plagiarism, please take 15 minutes to read these articles and avoid a failing grade on your paper:

2. 2 Section subheading
Paragraph(s) discussing the section subheading topic.
3. SECOND SECTION MAJOR HEADING
Remember that the purpose of your paper is to do an ethical analysis of all sides of the issue. Give a one or two sentence description of the ethical theory approach(es) that will be used. Then show how using this ethical theory approach can lead to a conclusion that the issue is ethical or unethical. The ethical analysis may be a separate section, or it may be woven into the analysis as the various aspects of the issue are presented. If the paper does not use an ethical theory and do an analysis of the issue, the paper will not earn a passing grade.
N. CONCLUSIONS (substitute the appropriate section number for N and remove this note)
Paragraphs() which summarizes the paper. The paper does not have to take a position on whether the issue it presented is ethical or not. This section may simply recap what has been presented in the paper.

Suggestions
to
Improve
Your
Paper/Presentation
Score
Some
Approaches:
The
following
approaches
might
be
useful
for
developing
your
topic.
This
does
not
mean
that
all
of
this
information
should
be
in
your
paper.
1. Look
up
definitions
of
key
terms.
If
legalities
are
involved,
look
up
the
legal
definitions
of
the
terms
(or
their
non-‐technology
equivalent
terms)
as
well.
2. Try
to
find
one
or
two
relevant
cases,
especially
those
that
are
expected
to
be
ground-‐breaking
legal
actions.
3. Decide
which
type
of
ethical
analysis
is
appropriate
for
your
topic,
such
as
stakeholder
analysis,
societal
impact
statement,
classical
philosophy
(such
as
Utilitarian,
Kantian,
etc.).
Try
to
develop
the
analysis,
using
your
cases
where
appropriate.
Common
Errors:
After
grading
papers
and
presentations
for
many
semesters,
I
have
compiled
the
following
list
of
serious
errors
seen
in
those
papers.
Use
this
as
a
checklist
to
ensure
that
your
paper
is
a
quality
paper.
1. Do
not
use
first
(I,
me,
my,
mine,
we,
our,
ours)
or
second
(you,
your,
yours)
person
in
a
research
paper
ever.
Use
only
third
person.
You
will
probably
use
a
lot
of
passive
voice.
2. The
tone
of
your
article
should
be
one
of
scholarly
research.
It
should
NOT
be
“chatty”
like
a
magazine
article.
Do
not
use
questions.
State
facts
instead.
3. Direct
quotes
should
almost
never
be
used.
You
should
be
able
to
read
and
discuss
what
you
have
read.
Cobbling
together
a
bunch
of
direct
quotes
as
a
paper
will
produce
a
grade
of
F,
regardless
of
the
use
of
citations.
4. You
are
not
writing
an
essay
about
your
personal
opinions.
You
are
presenting
an
investigation
of
an
ethical
issue
and
an
ethical
analysis
of
that
issue
and
the
different
aspects
of
it.
5. Check
your
grammar!
Make
sure
there
are
no
run-‐on
sentences,
and
that
verbs
agree
with
nouns.
MS
Word
has
a
grammar
checker,
but
it
does
not
always
handle
complex
sentences
correctly.
Proofread!!
If
you
are
weak
in
English,
get
help
in
proofreading
and
grammar
correction.
6. No
contractions
–
ever!!
(Examples:
can’t,
don’t,
won’t,
isn’t,
etc.)
7. Numbers
from
one
to
ten
should
be
spelled
out;
all
others
should
use
digits
only.
8. No
extra
spacing
between
paragraphs
–
the
first
line
indent
handles
paragraph
separation.
Extra
spacing
will
be
assumed
to
be
“padding”
for
the
page
count.
9. No
bulleted
or
numbered
lists
ever.
Discuss
it
instead.
10. No
charts
or
figures.
They
will
not
be
counted
toward
your
page
count.
11. Make
sure
all
of
your
content
is
relevant
to
your
main
issue.
Irrelevant
content
is
padding!
All
of
your
discussion
and
cases
should
be
about
ethical
issues
related
to
the
use
of
technology.
CGS

12. Your
focus
is
ethical
analysis
–
pick
one
or
more
ethical
analysis
methods
and
demonstrate
you
can
use
them.
13. Make
sure
that
you
focus
on
the
ethical
issues,
including
both
points
of
view,
counterarguments,
and
valid
case
studies
(no
fictional
cases
ever).
14. The
majority
of
your
paper
should
NOT
be
about
what
the
technology
is
and
how
it
works.
The
majority
of
your
paper
should
be
an
exploration
and
analysis
of
the
ethical
issues.
Your
audience
is
very
knowledgeable
about
technology
–
you
do
not
have
to
teach
us
about
it.
A
brief
discussion
of
the
“what
is”
is
sufficient.
15. Make
sure
that
references
are
done
correctly,
using
APA
style
and
IEEE
numbering.
a. If
the
article
was
published
in
a
newspaper
of
journal,
use
that
as
the
citation
type,
not
web
page
type.
b. All
web-‐based
links
must
be
valid.
By
valid,
the
link
should
take
you
directly
to
the
paper
or
article.
A
link
to
the
main
page
of
a
web
site
is
a
bad
reference.
c. Never
use
Wikipedia,
blogs,
forums,
Yahoo
Answers,
HowStuffWorks,
WikiAnswers,
etc.
as
references
for
a
research
paper.
16. Follow
formatting
requirements
for
font,
font
size,
headers,
abstract,
body,
references,
etc.,
as
described
in
the
Format
of
the
Paper
document.
17. No
cartoons
in
the
paper.
While
you
may
use
them
in
your
presentation
to
make
a
point,
they
do
not
belong
in
a
scholarly
paper.
18. Avoid
padding
phrases.
Several
types
of
padding:
a. Flowery
opening
phrases,
such
as:
“It
should
be
noted
that…”.
“As
a
matter
of
fact,
…”
“Another
example
of
this
is…”
-‐
just
state
the
next
example!
b. Repeating
your
reference
information:
Example:
“According
to
author
Bob
Smith
in
a
study
done
in
2004
by
the
XXX
Group,
…”.
Your
inline
citation
number
will
allow
me
to
go
see
who
did
the
study,
and
when.
This
is
unnecessary
padding.
19. Avoid
repetition:
Example-‐
“As
was
stated
earlier,…”
If
you
stated
it
earlier,
don’t
repeat
it
again!
This
is
padding.
