The TERM PAPER is just that – a term paper. Not a research paper, not a book report. It is your chance to further explore a topic in Information Systems for Healthcare and explain it back to me in your own words and voice. Search the table of content in your book and pick a topic. Then pull up the Rutgers online library and find the journal articles (Please see attachment for Journal articles). You should have 3 to 5 peer reviewed journal articles. If your articles are not peer review you will be docked 10 points for each reference in addition to the point criteria in the term paper rubrics. There should be no quotes ( Quoting is using the authors own words exactly), as this paper is in your own words and voice. This paper will be graded with rigor so get it right. Expect your grade to change a full letter grade or more if you do not put real effort into writing a quality paper, following the template, following the rubric and getting it in on time.
Please use APA 6 style guide and check your work for syntax and grammar errors. I do not want to decrement your grade for silly errors that can be resolved with a spell checker. All papers upon submission will be processed through Turnitin. Hence, use the case study threads to practice writing in your own voice to avoid plagiarism.
