Over the course of the past weeks, you were assigned to write a research paper about an ERM topic of your choice. The research paper development will consist of: (a) research paper topic (defining the topic of your research), (b) annotated bibliography (finding literature about the topic), (c) draft research paper (producing a draft paper based on the research topic) and (d) final research paper (improving on the draft and writing a final paper). This week you will submit the draft version of your paper, please use the template provided. 

Introduction

 All research reports begin with an introduction. (1 2 Pages)

Background

Provide your reader with a broad base of understanding of the research topic. The goal is to give the reader an overview of the topic, and its context within the real world, research literature, and theory. (3 5 Pages)

Problem Statement

This section should clearly articulate how the study will relate to the current literature. This is done by describing findings from the research literature that define the gap. Should be very clear what the research problem is and why it should be solved. Provide a general/board problem and a specific problem (150 200 Words)

Literature Review

Using your annotated bibliography, construct a literature review. (3-5 pages)

Discussion

Provide a discussion about your specific topic findings. Using the literature, you found, how do you solve your problem? How does it affect your general/board problem?
