The Economic Concerns of Keeping the Economy Healthy?

your next step for this week is to  write your Theoretical Orientation and Purpose.  A theoretical orientation, or theoretical framework, refers to the system of ideas and assumptions that an academic begins with when writing a paper. Theoretical orientation provides the researcher with a starting point to structure his/her ideas during research and writing.  Each academic discipline contains a number of established theoretical orientations that have been developed over the history of that discipline.  A theoretical framework consists of concepts and, together with their definitions and reference to relevant scholarly literature, represents existing theory that is used for your particular study. The theoretical framework must demonstrate an understanding of theories and concepts that are relevant to the topic of your research paper and that relate to the broader areas of knowledge being considered. At a minimum, you must respond to the following questions within this paper: Have you identified the chief paradigm or theoretical orientation of your proposed research? On the other hand, are you attempting to refute some paradigm or theory? Are you proposing to test a theory or hypothesis? Are you suggesting the theoretical orientation has shaped the methodology proposed for the study, such as the data-collection technique and the choice of which data are to be collected or ignored? There needs to be a minimum of 500-1,000 words, or 2-4 pages double-spaced, in length,  formatted in accordance with APA requirements.  Paper will be reviewed for plagiarism through Turnitin. In addition, no more than 20% of the paper should be directly quoted from an outside source.  I expect you to paraphrase, explaining what your sources had to say rather than quoting what they said.
