In this course you have explored Quantitative, Qualitative and Mixed Method approaches to research. Consider the research question you wrote in Module 1. Now that you have explored each type of methodology, decide which methodology would best answer your question and use this for your final mini-methods paper. Based on the work you have previously prepared and the feedback you have received from your instructor and your peers, prepare the mini-methods section (including all appendices, such as informed consent, copy of instruments, interview protocol, etc.). The final paper should not exceed 15 pages, not including the appendices. [NOTE: THE INSTRUCTOR WILL NOT GRADE ANY TEXT AFTER 15 PAGES]. This paper should primarily consist of the work that you developed in Modules 2-5 and modified based on feedback from your instructor and your classmates. For the informed consent, and letters of permission, please refer to the Argosy University IRB handbook or a dissertation example for templates. If something that should be included is missing (for example, the measure you will be using) place a page with the title or topic of the measure and a few sentences about what will be measured. The paper must include the following components. Use proper headings and Subheadings, as per the current edition of APA guidelines. 1). Introduction, Problem Statement, Purpose, Research Questions and Literature Review including: • An introduction to the research topic including the background of your topic. • A section about the significance of your topic and why it is important. • The purpose of your study, problem statement and your research questions and/or hypotheses. o Cite at least 7 references including a minimum of 4 empirical studies for your literature review. Use the literature list you presented in Module 2 Assignment 1, however elaborate on these to present in paragraph form. These paragraphs will be a bit more brief than what you would include in your dissertation proposal, however you should include enough information so they lead up to a logical research question (yours). 2). Methods including: • Design: A description of the design of your study covering each relevant aspect included in Modules 3-7. o If you adopt a quantitative design, clearly identify the type of design (e.g., quasi-experimental); the primary constructs; and hypotheses to be tested. Justify why you chose this design. o If you adopt a qualitative design, clearly identify the approach; (ethnographical, phenomenological, case study, etc.) primary phenomena; and primary research question(s). Justify why you chose this design. o A mixed methods design must address both of the above. • A description of your proposed study’s accessible population; sampling strategy; and the participants including the number, demographic information, setting, and other relevant information. Be sure this is consistent with the type of design. • If you adopt the quantitative method, include a description of your intended instruments including sample questions, reliability measures, and types of measurement. • If you adopt a qualitative method, describe your data collection method (interview, observation, document review, focus group, etc.). o If you plan to conduct interviews, provide a list of sample interview questions including a rational for each question as to what information the response will provide towards answering your research question. o If you plan to conduct an observation, describe who and how you will observe. • A description of your data collection strategies and procedures for securing informed consent and collecting data. • Address generalizability. 3). Limitations (1–2 pages) in which you discuss the limitations of your study in terms of participants, design, data collection, etc. This is a new contribution to your methods. Please refer to your textbook for examples of limitations. • For Quantitative studies, limitations should be discussed in terms of threats to internal and external validity. • For Qualitative studies, limitations should be discussed in terms of rigor, credibility and transferability. 4). References—should be included in accordance with APA style. 5). Appendices including data collection instruments when possible, interview protocols, recruiting, or advertising documents, informed consent forms, etc. Use your sample dissertations and Argosy dissertation guide to help you in writing your consent forms. Please note you should not have any formal permissions at this point, but should include a page with a description of what will be included for the proposal (ie permission from schools etc). If measures are not yet available provide a description of potential measures. Save your document as FINAL_lastname_firstname.doc. By the end of this week, submit your document to the M8: Assignment 2 Dropbox. All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.

Utilize dialogue in a piece of fiction 5. Develop voice in individual writing 6. Employ description, images and sound in a piece of fiction 7. Explain process of submitting fiction to journals. Overview Theme: Writers write to entertain, to inform, to persuade, or to journal privately, but in addition, most writers have a message or a comment that they wish to share. Fiction, whether short stories or novels, conveys the truth about life as an author sees it, and the writer is offering you a vicarious experience to learn something about life without actually having to live through problems and turmoil. It is also common for the author to have one intention, but the message does not need to be a huge lesson. As an author, you might read a story about two bitter enemies that are forced into a situation where they learn about each other and realize that the enemy was not as bad as was first thought. Usually, as you become a more critical reader/writer, stories that offer entertainment but also offer opportunities to learn or think, are more engaging and enjoyable. OVERVIEW: ELEMENTS OF FICTION: THEME Theme – the controlling idea or central insight. It can be a revelation of human character but a theme is not the “moral” of the story. A. A theme must be expressible in the form of a statement – not “motherhood” but “Motherhood sometimes has more frustration than reward.” B. A theme must be stated as a generalization about life; names of characters or specific situations in the plot are not to be used when stating a theme. C. A theme must not be a generalization larger than is justified by the terms of the story. D. A theme is the central and unifying concept of the story. It must adhere to the following requirements: 1. It usually accounts for all the major details of the story. 2. It must not rely on supposed facts – facts not actually stated or clearly implied by the story. E. There is no one way of stating the theme of a story. F. Any statement that reduces a theme to some familiar saying, aphorism, or cliché should be avoided. Do not use “A stitch in time saves nine,” “You can’t judge a book by its cover, ” “Fish and guests smell in three days,” and so on. G. Theme— Another look… Theme has to do with what you see as the story’s point, message, function, or implied view of life and conduct. The “theme” is always a generalization gathered from the collective effect of all elements of a story. Remember that there may be multiple themes in a story that often reinforce, but sometimes even contradict each other. Enjoy the pleasure of making compelling connections and the responsibility that comes from questioning and critiquing the story as a whole. ** Theme relates to purpose. I have found that I have begun a story thinking that the lesson or message was going to be one thing and as the story evolved, the message changed. Also, don’t be surprised if the readers glean a totally different message from the one you intended. So, I would say it is important to have a message in your work but don’t get too hung up on it. As Burroway says, let it evolve as you write. 1. Complete sentences 2. Consistent verb tense 3. Consistent point of view 4. Appropriate descriptive detail to “create a picture” in the mind’s eye 5.

Instructions

  1. Review The Writing Center: Annotated Bibliography Web page located in the Resources. View the Annotated Bibliography module by clicking on the “View media” link.
  2. Identify and annotate at least 6 academic articles.
  3. The complete annotated bibliography should include a total of at least 10–15 resources comprised of scholarly works, interviews with knowledge practitioners and/or blog sites, conference proceedings, and the sources used to obtain organization-specific business data.
  4. Use these three guidelines when identifying the resources you will use in your situational analysis and action plan project:
    • Sources: Use credible sources. Conduct a literature search using the Capella Library and online search engines. Use academic and industry resources that are research- or practitioner-based, such as the Academy of Management JournalSociety for Human Resource Management Magazine, and other relevant research sources. Do not use popular resources such as Time, Newsweek, or Peoplemagazines.
    • Practitioners: Speak with knowledge practitioners concerning their perspectives on your topic, trend, or issue. Asking probing questions to understand the perceived ethical and leadership implications of your topic, trend, or issue. Practitioners can provide important perspectives that align with your research. If you do not have access to knowledge practitioners, or if you want to supplement the information you have gathered through interviews, you may access several HR bloggers. You may wish to start with HR.com’s blogs (link in the Resources).
    • Conference Proceedings: Frequently, industry conference proceedings are posted on the Internet. Identify industry associations that may have had a conference related to your topic, trend, or issue. Search the Internet to see if the conference’s proceedings have been published. Conference proceedings are often an important resource for finding best practices.
