CONSORT Assignment

Step 1: Review the CONSORT Assignment Directions and rubric thoroughly. Step 2: Complete the 4-5 page professional paper (not counting title or ref. page) in 7th ed. APA format and the CONSORT Checklist. If you professional paper has gross APA errors, or is not in the required format your assignment will not be accepted and you will be asked to improve the formatting. Late penalties may apply. Please utilize the Example Student Paper Template, the APA Help Guide, and the APA book for best APA outcomes. Step 3: Utilize Brainfuse tutors for grammar, punctuation, and APA format assistance if this is not an area you are confident in. These tutors require a 24-hour turn-around, so plan accordingly. Step 4: Save a copy of the assignment for yourself in an easily accessible place and submit a copy to your instructor for grading in a docx or pdf format. Look for the Turnitin score to appear and if it is less than 25% you are good to go! If it is greater than 25%, please open the report, evaluate it, edit your paper to lower the similarity score, and re-submit the assignment to obtain a lower score. See rubric below for grading details *Important: Use the Sample Paper as a template to format your assignment to prevent unnecessary point deduction. When you submit this assignment, your paper will automatically run through a plagiarism checker build into Canvas called Turnitin. This will formulate a similarity report and will give you a percentage. If you percentage is greater than 25%, please review the report and see where you are flagged for similarity. You will need to re-do the paper to reduce the percentage to less than 25% before the paper will be accepted for grading. Late penalties may apply.
