Paper For Above instruction

The final project requires creating a comprehensive research paper and a presentation centered on the topic of bullying, with an emphasis on its sociological implications. The paper should be 7 to 10 pages, double-spaced, formatted in Times New Roman, 12-point font, with 1-inch margins. It should include an introduction, a detailed body, and a conclusion, supported by at least three scholarly sources, and cite them properly using MLA style. The introduction should define bullying, explain its relevance to sociology, and present a thesis statement. The body must provide an in-depth definition and components of bullying, background information from three academic resources, and apply three sociological theories—such as strain theory, social learning theory, or labeling theory—to elucidate the topic. Each theory application requires a paragraph describing the theory, how it explains aspects of bullying, and how it supports the writer's perspective. The conclusion should emphasize the importance of studying bullying, suggest avenues for future research, and propose practical recommendations for researchers and society.

The presentation component involves an 8-slide PowerPoint with one slide dedicated to references, along with speaker notes. The presentation must clearly convey the definition, societal relevance, theories applied, and importance of addressing bullying within a sociological framework. Visuals should be engaging and informative, and the total presentation time must fall between 5 and 10 minutes. Use the provided resources for research, and incorporate appropriate references and citations.
