Research Design And Methodology Assignment


Assignment:Think about the various research searching tools.

The students will look for research studies that support their topic for consideration during this class. They must find a minimum of five sources as follows:

  • Two peer review journal articles
  • One dissertation or thesis
  • One book for general content knowledge
  • One miscellaneous of their choice

Write a 1250-word essay addressing each of the following points/questions. Be sure to completely answer all the questions for each bullet point. Separate each section in your paper with a clear heading that allows your professor to know which points you are addressing in that section of your paper. Make sure to reference the citations using the APA writing style for the essay. The cover page and reference page do not count towards the minimum word amount.

  1. After selecting the five pieces of literature, you will review the instructions in the learning materials section to help you determine how to construct an appropriate annotated bibliography. You will need to list them using the appropriate APA format rules, ensuring that they are listed alphabetically by author.
  2. Begin by summarizing the source explaining the main purpose for the study, the population used, and the major reported findings. Next, how does this selection compare and contrast to the other four selected references, and finally reflect the usefulness of this source to your research topic and literature base.
