Paper For Above instruction

The assignment requires students to select a key term from a provided list—such as coercive forces, institutional environment, inter-organizational relationships, joint venture, legitimacy, niche, organizational ecosystem, retention, strategic alliance, or trade association—and then conduct research using Campbellsville University’s online library. The goal is to find a recent peer-reviewed article, published within the last three years, that closely relates to the chosen key term. Once selected, students must craft a comprehensive summary of the article, including details about the author’s credentials and why their insights are credible. This summary should be written in the student’s own words and within a specified word range, which, although unspecified here, typically is around 200-300 words.

The discussion component is the most critical part of the assignment. Students are expected to analyze how the article relates to the weekly reading topic, providing insights, personal reflections, and opinions that add value beyond merely reiterating the article’s content. It is an opportunity for students to demonstrate critical thinking and deepen their understanding of the key term within a practical context.

Finally, students are required to include all references used in their research in APA format at the end of their submission, ensuring proper citation and academic integrity. The structured format includes clearly labeled sections: Definition (with APA reference), Summary, and Discussion, all presented with appropriate headings to facilitate clarity and organization.
