Final Paper

Over the course of the semester, you will be researching and writing a paper on a topic related to the assessment of human behavior. You will review the revenant literature and write a 10-page double-spaced paper (not including the title page and references) on the topic you choose. I have provided some topics below, but if there is an area of assessment you are particularly interested that is not listed, please reach out to me and let me know (I am very flexible on this).

After you choose your topic, include it in your assignment along with a brief rationale as to why you chose it (one paragraph).  Topic: Cultural considerations of behavior assessment in ABA

final Paper – IMPORTANT

Date: Jul 8, 2020 12:00 AM Description

Can you believe that we are almost to the end of the class?

Couple of things to help you with your final paper.

• This paper is a combination of the first two. You do not need to write a whole new paper using new articles.
• Don’t worry about the word count.  I don’t want a 20 page paper, but I want you to be sure to get the content in the paper.
• Please use the rubric to develop the final paper. The guidelines in the final paper are incorrect and do not include all of the elements in the rubric.
• I have included a sample paper for you to get an idea of how to format this final paper
• If you would like me to review your final paper prior to submitting, I am happy to do this. I will not grade the paper, but I can review it and let you know if you left something out. If you are interested, please just submit it through the private forum.
• If you feel so inclined, please take a few minutes to complete the course evaluation for this class.  I really love reading the comments from students.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Call to me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things which you do not know. Jeremiah 33:3
