MAIN TOPIC: THE IMPACT OF DRUG USE ON EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT AND SUCCESS IN SCHOOL BETWEEN EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENT STUDENTS VS. NON EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENTIntroduction: An overview of the problem/theme or problems/themes addressed in your paper as a result of your research; definitions of the principal concepts on which your project is based; the 3 main questions for which you seek answers; the general significance or importance of asking and answering these particular questions, and more specifically why these are important questions for you to ask and answer (that is, your personal connection to the topic, which would include why you became interested in the themes you will address); and a clear statement of your thesis.INTRO: WHAT WILL THIS PAPER BE ABOUT. PROVIDE A CLEAR AND WELL- WRITTEN THESIS STATEMENT. STAY AWAY FROM OPINIONS. SPEAK THE IMPORTANCE OF WHAT EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE IS, THE CHARACTERISTICS OF A STUDENT WHO LIVES UP TO THIS, INCLUDING THEIR USUAL BEHAVIOR. DESCRIBE BEING NON EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENT AND WHY THAT GIVES A HIGHER RISK TO USE DRUGS.3 MAIN QUESTIONS TO INCLUDE IN INTRO :THE STEREOTYPES VS. REALITY OF WHO IS EXPECTED TO USE THESE DRUGS AND WHO DOES IT MOST (BLACK KIDS VS. WHITE KIDS) – BLACK KIDS ARE THE BLAME WHEN RICH WHITE KIDS INTERACT IN DRUG USAGE WAY MORESTUDY THE SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND INCLUDE WHAT THE STATISTICS ARE FROM THE ARTICLEhttp://s3.amazonaws.com/academia.edu.documents/3460253/Kun_Demetrovics_2010_EIreview_SUM.pdf?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIWOWYYGZ2Y53UL3A&Expires=1492212968&Signature=8H37qZ4Pob0fYR%2FK%2F8GkhXBWuMM%3D&response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%3DEmotional_intelligence_and_addictions_a.pdfhttp://healthland.time.com/2011/11/07/study-whites-more-likely-to-abuse-drugs-than-blacks/http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/09/17/racial-disparity-drug-use_n_3941346.htmlIN WHAT NEIGHBORHOODS DOES THIS LIKELY TAKE PLACE (SURBURBAN VS.

EXAMINE HOW THE DAD USED DRUGS IN FRONT OF HIS KIDS AND DISCUSS WHAT EFFECT THAT CAN HAVE ON THEM AND HOW THEY CAN BRING THOSE HABITS INTO SCHOOL. Methodology: A self-conscious explanation (concrete discussion) of the methods and sources of information you used—which journals, books, scholars, authors, etc. provided your information, and what are their perspectives, ideologies, objectives?  What can you say about their body of work? SPEAK ABOUT EACH AUTHOR, THEIR VIEW ON EDUCATION, AND HOW THEY RELATE TO ONE ANOTHER. WHAT THEY DIFFER IN/WHAT THEY HAVE IN COMMON TO THEIR OUTLOOK OF EI STUDENTS VS. NON- EI STUDENTSDO NOT USE FULL QUOTATIONS, INSTEAD USE IN-CITE CITATIONS SUCH AS LIKE THIS: MainstreamNorth American culture often demeans, marginalizes, and demonizes people identified or labeled as “others”. As Memmi (1968) points out, the process of “othering” always involves establishing an attitude and mindset of “difference” such that those in positions of power define the “others” as “inferior” and define themselves as “superior” beings.  Since the events of September 11, 2001, the American media, politicians, and the public have identified people of Arab descent, Muslims and individuals with an Arabic or Muslim sounding name, as “others” or “not us”, even not quite “human”; in fact, our government has played a key role in their demonization, and with the mainstream media, has persuaded many people that these “others” are dangerous and a threat to our security and society. “Others” are, in this way, “constructed” in order to “justify” ill-treatment, abuse, torture and our all-out war against them.BE SURE TO IN-CITE INSTEAD OF COPYING AND PASTING A FULL QUOTE, BREAK DOWN THE QUOTE. AND CITE RIGHT AFTER THE AUTHOR’S WORDS. INCLUDE THE FINDINGS THAT WERE PUT INTO THE ARTICLE “LOW EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AS A PREDICTOR OF SUBSTANCE-USE PROBLEMS” DRUG ABUSE AND WHITE KIDSBE SURE TO STATE WHAT IS PROVEN ABOUT LOW EI CAUSING ADDITIONAL CONTROVERSYBE SURE TO TIE IN ANY OTHER RELATABLE QUESTIONS SPEAK ON THE DIRECTION THE YOUTH STUDENTS ARE BEING LED IN FOLLOWING DRUG ABUSE ACCORDING TO RECENT STUDIES?HOW DOES LOW EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE OFTEN LEAD TO SUBSTANCE ABUSE PROBLEMS?LOOK AT RECENT GOVERNMENT REPORTS THAT WILL MAKE RESEARCH ACCURATEhttps://www.drugabuse.gov/news-events/news-releases/2016/12/teen-substance-use-shows-promising-declineBackground/History: A sociological analysis of your primary themes including a detailed account of the pertinent historical, economic, political, social and cultural background necessary to contextualize the problems you have posed and understand their contemporary manifestations. Note: Title this section as is appropriate to correspond to your specific research.  For example: if your research focuses on cultural conflicts in the educational system for students whose families have migrated to the U.S. from a different country, culture, and educational system, in this section you would include relevant sociological and historical analyses of the educational and cultural differences between the home country and the U.S.  You would also include relevant background information on what historical events precipitated your family’s migration from that country.  How many people migrated from those countries?  What were their experiences adapting to the United States?THE COMMON DRUGS THAT STUDENTS MOSTLY USE (DO NOT INCLUDE ALL DRUGS.

Here is where the real core of your thesis is supported with evidence and where the answers to your questions are addressed.  You must demonstrate convincingly, the ways in which your topic is related to the themes we discussed IN RELATION TO EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND EDUCATION.Conclusions: Not just a summary of your research; this section answers the question, “Where do we go from here?”  What areas need additional study, what new questions does your research raise?  What kinds of solutions does your research indicate? INCLUDE THE EI MODEL AS REFERENCE TO HOW STUDENTS MAY CATEGORIZE THEMSELVES. FULL PARAGRAPHS FOLLOWED WITH FULL SENTENCES.
