    Instructions
    For the capstone research paper, you will write an 8-10 page paper

    Instructions
    For the capstone research paper, you will write an 8-10 page paper (excluding the title page, reference page, tables, and figures) about the approved policy you selected at the beginning of the semester (Capstone Paper Topics). The purpose of this paper is to provide a synopsis of the policy’s background/history, purpose, goal(s), implementation, and efficacy; thus, the following information must be included within your paper:
    a descriiption of the policy and the scope of the problem (e.g., statistics) the policy is trying to address;
    a discussion of the history of the policy, including why, where, and when it was created;
    a discussion of the purpose(s) or goal(s) of the policy (i.e., what it is designed to accomplish, who or what it is targeting).
    In addition, you must summarize three (3) empirical (primary research) studies that have evaluated how effective the policy has been in achieving its goals (the policy’s efficacy). For each study, include the following information:
    a summary of the research question examined,
    a summary of the population/sample examined,
    a summary of how the data were obtained and what data were obtained (i.e., the specific type of information collected),
    a summary of the findings as they relate to your thesis statement, and
    a brief discussion of any significant limitations to the findings.
    All information contained in the paper must come from academic sources and the focus of these sources must be on the US (do not include research from other countries as this is a US policy paper). You must include/cite at least 10 academic sources (e.g., journal articles, law reviews, academic books, research reports, encyclopedias, etc.), at least five (5) of which must be published in academic journals (subject to peer review). Do not include theses or dissertations.
    Your paper must be written in APA format (7th edition) and must include proper APA citations. Failure to include citations constitutes plagiarism. Your paper must also include an APA formatted title page and reference page.
    Structural Elements of the Capstone Research Paper
    Policy reports may reflect different roles that policy analysts commonly play, i.e., from researcher to advocate. The type of paper you are writing is one that is action/advocacy oriented (but based purely on evidence from academic sources and not opinion). The capstone research paper must be structured using the following sections:
    Title page (APA formatted, 7th Edition)
    Introduction (brief descriiption of policy, purpose/goals, targeted population, components, etc., include thesis statement)
    Background (history/origins of policy, scope of policy, importance and prevalence of problem)
    Implementation (where, when, and why policy was created; policy’s full purpose/goals, what is it designed to accomplish/achieve, and what target population benefits from it)
    Research (summary and discussion of 3 primary research studies evaluating the policy’s effectiveness/efficacy; collective discussion of research findings, have researchers found the policy to be effective in accomplishing its purpose/goals). Note primary research studies must contain a methodology and results section. If a source does not include these sections, it is not a primary research study.
    Recommendations (based on your research what changes need to be made, what is working, what is not working, include all points of view and perspectives; then, make recommendations for improvement to the legislature/law makers)
    Conclusion (brief summary of findings, outcomes, and final take away message from your policy research/review; policy implications, future directions, and expectations)
    Reference page (APA formatted, 7th edition) – sample available
    Formatting
    Papers must be formatted using Times New Roman 12-point font; double-spaced; left alignment, 1″ page margins all around, page numbers in the upper right header. Paraphrase in your own words and make sure to proofread your paper for mechanics and grammar.
    Grading
    Using the grading rubrics below, papers will be evaluated on written communication (5 criteria), content knowledge (3 criteria), critical thinking (4 criteria), and fulfilling the paper requirements as specified above (1 criterion). Papers will be graded out of 100%.
    Note: Only Word documents will be accepted. No PDFs, please.

    Prompt
    For this discussion, please use your knowledge of leadership to answer the following questions. Provide specific examples for each response. Use ALL of the required readings, lectures, and discussion videos, in some capacity, to respond:
    What is motivation, and why is it important to know how to motivate employees?
    Choose ONE motivation theory, briefly describe it, and relate the theory to leadership.
    What are some ways in which a manager can increase their personal power? List specific examples of types of power.
    Explain the barriers to effective communications.
    What kind of strategies can a leader employ to reduce or eliminate a rift within a team?
    Guidelines
    For full credit, you must demonstrate a clear understanding of the readings and course concepts. Your response should be analytical, rather than merely descriptive. Meaning, that I would like you to contribute new information from your own analysis of the readings. Do not just copy and paste the reading into your response. The discussion videos usually help to reify the topic at hand, but it is more important that you draw from the course readings and lectures than watching the video alone. I will deduct points if you do not show evidence you are reading course materials and drawing your analysis from empirical sources, meaning, stay away from using conjecture, too many anecdotes, or personal opinion, some are ok but it should mostly read as academic as possible. Make sure to provide proper in-text citations (see Writing Resources for more on APA and ASA formatting).
    Think of Discussions as a mini-essay. You may respond in paragraph form, short-hand, or bullet points but please give enough details so I can verify you read and comprehend the readings.

    Some people believe that Artificial Intelligence (AI) will represent humanity’s fourth industrial revolution, and it will drive evolutionary and revolutionary advancement. In 2017 the United States Congress issued a joint resolution called The Fundamentally Understanding the Usability and Realistic Evolution of Artificial Intelligence Act of 2017 (Future Act). This joint resolution focuses on a better understanding of current AI applications, the potential of AI, and its current and how it is expected to impact society. In 2019 the National Defense and Authorization Act tasked the DoD to establish a set of activities within the DoD to coordinate the efforts of the Department to develop, mature and transition AI technologies into operational use. In 2019 a guidepost was released for government, industry, and academia in AI capabilities. It is called the American AI Initiative; five guiding principles are intended to coordinate efforts for AI development. Addressing ethical aspects of AI and ethical transparency in developing and employing AI systems is critical for setting expectations within the DoD.
    The information will be used in the final portfolio to discuss the origins of AI, its ethical considerations, sources of funding, AI development and acquisition processes, and workforce reform.
    Harari, Yuval Noah. (Sept. 24, 2024). “What Happens When the Bots Compete for Your Love?” The New York Times. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/04/opinion/yuval-harari-ai-democracy.html
    Harari is a historian and the author of the book Nexus: A Brief History of Information Networks From the Stone Age to AI (2024) from which this essay is adapted. In it, he makes the assertion that the survival of democracy is dependent on reliable information technology, something that is becoming more and more obscured, both in the US and around the world. Today, people are overwhelmed by a glut of information, resulting both in shorter attentions spans and a deluge of toxic information, much of it mis- and disinformation, and more specifically propaganda. Add to this the fact that artificial intelligence is capable of not only producing texts, images and videos, but also conversing with us directly, pretending to be human. Harari argues that these manipulative abilities of AI pose new dangers to our democracy.
    This article will be of use to me when writing my final paper since it discusses the dangers and threats posed by AI, both to individuals and collectively to our democracy. Information is power, and understanding how AI works, not just as a tool for humans but as an agent with its own power and volition, will enable us to better prepare for what’s to come in the next phase of the information age.
    Liang, W., Tadesse, G. A., Ho, D., Fei-Fei, L., Zaharia, M., Zhang, C., & Zou, J. (2022). “Advances, challenges and opportunities in creating data for trustworthy AI.” Nature Machine Intelligence, 4(8), 669-677. https://www.proquest.com/docview/2928443650/fulltext/C6824ED300DB433BPQ/1?accountid=8289&sourcetype=Scholarly%20Journals
    In the last couple of years Artificial Intelligence (AI) has improved greatly and it is only going up. And with the development of AI, AI model building gets easier with automation of machine learning for example. With the increasing ease of model building, creating datasets for AI remains a problem due to the cost of curation and annotation. More attention needs to be placed on developing methods and standards to improve the data for the AI pipeline. Once a dataset is collected, careful selection of a subset of data is used for training so the AI can improve the reliability of the model. Government regulation and data policy will play an important part in promoting, constraining, and shaping data-centric and trustworthy AI.
    In the final portfolio, the information will be used to compare model-centric versus data-centric approaches in AI. The portfolio will also cover data design for AI, exploring the process from data design to evaluation. It will discuss the steps involved in handling data after the initial dataset is collected. Finally, the portfolio will examine how data can be leveraged to evaluate and monitor AI models.
