Have you ever participated in this type of research? If so please explain when/how? If not please provide an example of how a company would use this technique other an those discussed in the Podcast. It is all about understanding our consumer customers and being able to better serve them in the future.

As you begin to write, consider the writing structures you have been taught. This paper will be significantly longer than a five paragraph essay. This is a comprehensive research paper.

You will need to provide your reader with background information in order for your points to be clear. You may need to define key terms. You may need to provide a historical overview.

Approach your writing as if your reader knows nothing about your topic. If you write from this point of view, it will quickly become obvious that you will need to write much more than you may have initially thought about writing.

Are you overwhelmed yet? Don’t be!

Your assignment is broad and there is a lot to say. Consider using the first part of your paper to set the stage. Provide your reader with background information, historical context or other information that will be useful in helping your reader understand your points.

Use the middle part of your paper to present the facts which support your point of view.

Use the last part of your paper to pull it all together. This means that you will discuss the answer to your question and how your points contribute to that.

Drafting a research paper is complicated. To make sure that you do not omit any of the critical parts of the paper, you should follow a two step process.

1. The drafting table – First you will construct each of the parts of the paper separately. The table guides you by reminding you what you need to include
2. You will take each piece out of the chart and connect it with transitional ideas and words so the paper will flow smoothly

In this lesson, you learned about calculating with half-life. Now, you will demonstrate your understanding of half-life by answering the following questions. Make sure that you are showing each step of your work. The half-life of cobalt-60 is 5.27 years. How many milligrams of cobalt-60 remain after 52.7 years if you start with 15 mg? A sample contains 12.0 mg of an unknown element. After 4.46 × 109 years, the sample will contain 3.00 mg of the unknown element. What is the half-life of the unknown element?

“Make sure to show your work, and your answers should be provided with the correct amount of significant figures.”
