DB2 Choose ONE of the empirical research articles in the folder below these DB2 instructions. Please read this article and then address the questions below in your initial post. Please number your responses. Also, do not include assignment questions in your response. Your initial post should be a minimum of 500 words and a maximum of 700 words. [Note: I am fine with a response that is closer to 500 than 700 as long as you provide a sufficient response to each of the assignment questions. For example, don’t devote 475 words to questions 1-4 and provide an insufficient response to question 5.] 1) Which article did you select and why? [There is no need for you to provide a complete reference to article. Just provide sufficient information for me to recognize the article. For example: You might write… I selected the article by Smith and Jones on student retention. I chose this article because….] 2) What was the study about? (research purpose) 3) How did the author(s) study that? (research methods, i.e., participants, data collection methods, procedures) [Note: Given that this is a research methods course, please ensure that you place sufficient emphasis on response to this question.] 4) What did the author(s) conclude in this study? [This response should be based on Discussion/Conclusion sections, i.e., after analyzing data and reporting findings, what did they learn?] 5) What is your opinion regarding the design and implementation (how study was set up and conducted) of this research study? Note: I am not asking your opinion regarding the topic of the study and/or whether you agree/disagree with the findings. Important: Your post should paraphrase the information from the article (do not include any direct quotes or citations in your discussion post). Paraphrasing means using your own words and sentence structure in the response. You are allowed to use verbatim the standard language of research in your response (e.g., purpose, research question, participants, case study, survey, instrument, interview, qualitative, etc.) as well as the language of the research focus of article (e.g., retention, special education, school counselors, college readiness, etc.). What I am trying to say is don’t just copy and paste segments of the article into your discussion post as that is plagiarism.
