Instructions

Please keep in mind that
**Liberty University uses** **artificial intelligence-detecting software**. It detects the use of programs such as Grammarly, Google, ChatGPT, and many others. The use of artificial intelligence aids will result in earning zeros on assignments and sometimes an “F” in a course. The Department of Social Work realizes that many of you may be returning to school after many years or do not consider yourselves wonderful writers. Liberty University has an Online Writing Center to help you grow in your writing competency. We encourage you to use this resource.

**First** **Watch in Modules 3 & 4**: 1)
_Anatomy of a Research Journal Article_, 2)
_Anatomy of a Journal Article Video, and_ 3)
_Best Practices in Graduate Writing_

**Next**, take the
_Graduate Writing Quiz_.

The watch items and quiz will help prepare you for this writing assignment.

**Next**, read Trammel et al. (2020), which is a read item in this module.

**Next,** using the
**Graduate Paragraph Template** and the principles from the
**_Best Practices in Graduate Writing_** Watch item
**,** complete the chart, and write a 325 to 450-word graduate-level paper about the article in 3 paragraphs. The assignment will have an APA-style cover page and an APA-style reference page.
