Title Page	5	This should include the title of your quality management research paper; your name, address, e-mail address, and telephone number; the course number and title; the instructor’s name; and the date.
Introduction	15	Provide an overview of the article and why you selected it to review and summarize.

References and APA Format	10	Although it is recognized that there may be a limited number of references if any other than the article being reviewed, all references must be cited in two places: within the body of your paper and on a separate reference list. Choose references judiciously and cite them accurately. Cite all sources using APA format. To use the ideas or words of another person without crediting the source is plagiarism. Plagiarism in its purest form involves copying passages either verbatim or nearly verbatim, with no direct acknowledgment of the source. The most common form of plagiarism is to paraphrase information from your source material. Paraphrasing does not relieve you of the obligation to provide proper identification of source data. The best way to avoid plagiarism is to make sure all quotes, ideas, or conclusions not your own are given proper acknowledgment in your text. A key thought to remember is “If you did not write it, cite it!” Also, all other aspects of the paper should conform to APA rules.
