Hurricane Katrina (Case Study)<\/p>\n

Write 20 pages double spaced exclusive of title and reference pages (Case Study) on the topic: Hurricane Katrina using the attached template.<\/p>\n

Abstract
[Write this last. In this section, give a maximum 250-word overview of the entire research project. Be sure to include brief descriptions of the problem, methodology, <\/p>\n

analysis, conclusions, and recommendations. Do not include any cited material or citations in the abstract.]
Problem Statement
[Explain your project in detail. What happened? Why is the study of it important to the field of emergency management? What do you expect to be the value of <\/p>\n

studying your event? This section should probably be about two pages long.]\u2003
The Event
[Tell the story of your disaster in detail. Tell it in chronological order. Make it a compelling narrative. This is where the reader\u2019s attention is captivated, <\/p>\n

and in doing so, the credibility and importance of the work you\u2019re about to accomplish is established. This section should probably be seven \u2013 ten pages in length in <\/p>\n

order to do the complexity of your event justice.]\u2003
Methodology
Methodology
[This is where you establish the academic validity of your work. Cite and quote heavily from Yin in this section. Talk about what you learned from the weekly <\/p>\n

assignments\u2014design criteria, boundaries, single case design, design validity, evidence collection, evidence analysis, etc. This section should be no less than two <\/p>\n

pages and may require five or so.]
Data Collection and Analysis<\/p>\n

[This is where you will explain what data you will collect, where you will get it, and how you will analyze it. This section should probably run two pages or <\/p>\n

so.]<\/p>\n

Research Questions and Hypotheses<\/p>\n

[Qualitative research typically answers research questions, whereas quantitative research seeks to prove or disprove hypotheses. If you do not require a <\/p>\n

hypothesis for your project, that\u2019s fine. Write out three or four research questions\u2014no more\u2013that your analysis will answer.]
Research Questions.
Hypotheses.
Literature Review<\/p>\n

[In week four, you will begin developing an annotated bibliography on your topic, which you will provide in Appendix A. You will gather as many sources as you <\/p>\n

feel will provide a solid data set with which to analyze your event. You\u2019ll discuss the bibliography in the forums, and your classmates may offer suggestions for <\/p>\n

additional resources. Once you feel you have a complete picture of your event, write a summary literature review for this section. Hit the highlights of what you <\/p>\n

learned from the various sources. Identify shortfalls in the knowledge that your project may help fill in. This section should probably run about two pages.]\u2003
Discussion\/Analysis
[This is where you apply the methodology to the evidence. Was the disaster inevitable? Was it ironic that the event happened at all? Were there warnings? How <\/p>\n

was the preparation for the potential disaster handled? Did mitigation occur? When the disaster struck, what was the quality of the response? Was there a chain of <\/p>\n

authority? How well did the disaster response structure, if any, function? Did recovery and restoration occur at an adequate level? Were any lessons learned? How did <\/p>\n

the theory of how disasters happen apply to this event? These are examples of the types of questions you will seek to answer in your analysis. This section should <\/p>\n

probably run five \u2013 ten pages in order to be thorough.]\u2003
Conclusions and Recommendations
Conclusions
[In the final analysis, what do you conclude? Did things go as well as they could have? Why or why not? Be sure to readdress your research questions in this <\/p>\n

section and provide the answers that were developed by doing the research. Do not cite or quote in this section\u2014all words should be your words. This section should <\/p>\n

probably be one or two pages in length to make sure everything was captured.]
Recommendations
[In many ways, this is the most important section of the paper. What are we to learn\u2014and what are we to do\u2014with respect to what you studied that will improve <\/p>\n

emergency management theory and operations? Be specific and direct. Again, do not cite or quote in this section. These are your recommendations.] <\/p>\n

References
[Include a reference entry for all material used to develop the project in this section. Use proper APA formatting. Present the reference entries in <\/p>\n

alphabetical order by author\u2019s last name.]\u2003
Appendix A: Annotated Bibliography
[You will work on the bibliography once your project is selected and approved, beginning approximately in week four. This is where you will provide a somewhat <\/p>\n

detailed description of the resources you found to use as data and evidence for your project. Begin by introducing the piece of literature by author, date and title. <\/p>\n

Give a brief synopsis of the article. Evaluate the author\u2019s work and say what value the work will likely be to your research. Then move on to the next piece of <\/p>\n

literature. You must have no less than eight resources for your project, at least half of which must be scholarly work, government reports, or other official <\/p>\n

documents. More is better\u2014you\u2019re working to become an expert on your topic.]\u2003
Appendix B: Charts, graphs, figures, etc.
[Final note: Proofread your paper. There should be no red or green underlines outside of the reference section. There should be no blue text. The centered <\/p>\n

headings should be 14-pitch, and all other headings and text should be 12-pitch. Times New Roman should be the only font. The title should not be \u2018Title\u2019. The running <\/p>\n

heads should not say \u2018RUNNING HEAD\u2019. The final product should be a first-rate presentation that you\u2019re very proud of.] <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
