PRO600 Critical Thinking in Action Paper Safety Moral and Ethics in Workplace

1. Familiarize yourself with the communications rubric (viewable in your “Assignments” folder) and the revised sample paper (attached to this announcement) which illustrates how to use APA style.
2. Read the background materials and instructions for Project 5. (Click on the blue hyperlinks within the Project 5 directions to access these materials.) You will be critically analyzing the “Trouble in the Truss Construction Shop” case.
3. Write your “Critical Thinking in Action” paper (which should have at least three full pages in the body of the paper – and no more than five pages – in addition to having a title page and reference list). Be sure to use helpful headings throughout the paper. Everything should be done in accordance with APA style. However, you are not required to write an abstract – although if you do include one, it could be an example of having gone “above and beyond” on the assignment (assuming you follow the APA style guidelines). Remember that an abstract is not a substitute for an introduction, and it will not count toward having a minimum of three full pages.
Here are the sections you should have in your paper:
Introduction – Please use the title of your paper as your first heading (rather than use “Introduction”) for this section. You should make general comments about the topic rather than launch into the specifics of the case. And please do not use “Critical Thinking” as the name of your paper; instead, please have a more meaningful title that helps your reader anticipate the content of your paper. Please do notassume the reader is familiar with the case or your assignment.
Explanation – You should provide an overview of the case – in your own words.
Analysis – What are the issues of concern?
Alternative viewpoints – How were the various parties impacted, and how do they view this case?
Conclusions and recommendations – Tell me what you think about the situation.
There are quite a few references provided within the directions for Project 5. (Be sure to click on the various blue hyperlinks and always scroll down to the bottom of the page to see these references.) So at a minimum, each student should cite several of the concepts related to moral/ethical decision making (using in-text citations and a reference list according to APA style).
In other words, your paper must cite several of these concepts from your readings in order to meet expectations. However, you are not required to find additional sources other than what was provided in the blue hyperlinks. But if you did, that would be evidence of having gone “above and beyond.” Remember that anything cited in the paper must be on your reference list, and everything on the reference list must be cited in the paper.
I’m attaching “The Five Habits of the Master Thinker” which could provide a good framework for your paper.
And here is another link to an especially helpful resource that I want to be sure you noticed in your readings:
Radford University Core Handbook: “CORE 202- Ethical Reasoning and Analysis”
4. You are welcome to submit your paper to the UMUC Effective Writing Center for review.
5. When you are satisfied with your paper (which should have a .doc or .docx extension), please submit it in LEO by Tues., May 21.
Here is a website that you can use to learn APA style:

If you do not consult the sample paper (attached) and do not follow APA style, you will not pass this assignment. (You would be eligible to revise your work, but you would not be able to earn an “exceeds expectations” on a revision.) So please spend enough time on this assignment to do your best.
Be sure your paper is well proofread. As a general rule, you should spend at least as much time editing and proofreading a paper as you did in writing it.
