Unit III Paper Topic In this course, you are asked to prepare a research paper on construction-related fall accidents. To get started on the research paper, it is best to begin to narrow down your topic, or the accident. You have two choices for this assignment. Complete only ONE of the following options. Option One: At this point, if you are unsure about which accident to select, narrow it down to three accidents. Write two to three paragraphs and include each of the following:  Briefly summarize the accident;  Your initial thoughts about the cause of the accident; and  Your initial thoughts about potential fall protection plan(s). Option Two: If you are sure about your topic, prepare one to two pages of your initial thoughts about the accident. Include each of the following:  Briefly summarize the accident;  Your initial thoughts about the cause of the accident; and  Your initial thoughts about potential fall protection plan(s). The purpose of this assignment is to allow you to select a topic (i.e., accident) for your Research Paper, and to begin thinking about how you will approach the rest of the paper. Format your Paper Topic using APA style. Use your own words, and include citations and references as needed to avoid plagiarism.
Unit VI Paper Outline The research paper in this course asks you to select a topic or scenario, research it, and report the details. By now, you had the opportunity to review the topics, select one, and briefly reflect on the topic. To stay on track and to continue to make progress on the research paper, prepare an outline with the major headings or topic sentences. An outline is a great way to provide organization for papers and projects. Your outline should include the following:  The topic;  One paragraph that describes the importance of the topic; and  At least four major headings in outline form. CSU requires that students use the APA format in writing course papers. Therefore, the APA rules for formatting, quoting, paraphrasing, citing, and listing of sources are to be followed. You do NOT have to commit to the details of your outline until the research paper is finished. As you continue to research the topic and draft the paper, the organization of your thoughts (i.e., the details of the outline) may evolve. That is expected and acceptable. To organize those thoughts, it is a good idea to begin with an outline. Use your own words, prepare the assignment in a word-processing application, and submit the outline as one of the following file formats: DOC, DOCX, or PDF.
Research Paper Accidents from falling are one of the leading causes of death and injuries in the construction industry. Find and review several articles in professional publications on construction-related fall accidents. Also, find and review several sample fall protection programs for construction companies, as well as visit ww.osha.gov for relevant fall protection requirements. Choose at least one accident you would like to research further and construct a paper that includes the following:  A brief introduction of the problem with fall-related accidents in the construction industry.  A review and analysis of the fall accident chosen for further research.  A detailed discussion on the causative factors associated with the fall accident.  A sample fall protection program developed to suit only the type of work being performed in the accident that is being reviewed. Be specific and include the factors related to the accident. (Do not include portions of a program not directly related to the work in the researched accident.)  A summary of the student’s conclusions on fall hazards in the construction industry, and opinions on the necessity for a fall protection plan. Your research paper analysis should be at least five pages of text in 12-point double-spaced Times Roman font. Please include an APA style reference for the in-text citations and references that you use. Information about accessing the Blackboard Grading Rubric for this assignment is provided below
