  • Review of Related Literature and Practice (Action Research S…

    This assignment is a Review of Related Literature and Practice prepared as part of the Action Research process. The purpose of the paper is to examine relevant research literature and professional scholarship related to my identified problem of practice, which focuses on students impulsive decision-making during cyberbullying situations.

    The paper includes a refined problem of practice based on instructor feedback, a clear search strategy explaining keywords, databases, and selection criteria, an annotated bibliography of selected sources, and a thematic literature review synthesizing key challenges, strategies, and contextual insights from prior research. The review informs the next stage of my action research design by identifying evidence-based approaches that may support guided reflection and safer student response behaviors in digitally mediated conflicts.

    References are included in APA 7 format within the submitted document. Sources were identified through academic databases such as Google Scholar and ERIC, focusing primarily on peer-reviewed research related to cyberbullying, adolescent decision-making, reflective practice, and self-regulation.

    This assignment presents a literature review supporting my action research problem of practice related to students impulsive responses during cyberbullying incidents. It includes a refined problem statement, search strategy, annotated bibliography, and thematic synthesis of research informing the design of guided reflection practices in my school context.

  • Discussion 6

    Describe the methodology you have selected for your research proposal (qualitative or quantitative…) and discuss why you selected that method. What is the rationale of your research methodology selection? If you have unlimited resources and time, how would you revise your research proposal to be a mixed research methodology? (How would you design the quantitative and qualitative parts? How would you collect the data? What are the advantages and disadvantages of this proposed mixed research methodology design?) Students should use APA to cite references in all posts. INFO ABOUT MY STUDY Research topic Navigating Higher Education: Understanding the experience and perceptions of institutional support systems (such as mentoring, financial aid, and counseling) for historically marginalized students at Notre Dame of Maryland University (First-generation & International Students).” Qualitative Research Interview: Interview sessions with Students at Notre Dame of Maryland University who are considered part of Historically Marginalized Student Groups (First-Generation & International Students). General Interview Approach/Guide: Semi-Structured Questions Purpose of the Interview: The interviews are designed to set up the qualitative section of my research. The goal of the interviews is to gain a deep understanding of how historically marginalized students navigate student support services in higher education and their perception of institutional support services such as Student Success, Financial Aid, Academic Advising, counseling, and mentoring programs. The purpose of this phenomenological study is to understand the experience and perceptions of institutional support systems (such as mentoring, financial aid, and counseling) for historically marginalized students at Notre Dame of Maryland University (First-generation & International Students).
  • Assignment 2: Practice Coding a Qualitative Dataset

    Background

    In this weeks assignment, you will examine various types of coding and apply open coding to a dataset. While the specific type of coding you use in your own dissertation research will be a collaboration between you and your chair, practical experience with open coding will provide the background and context you need to participate in that collaboration.

    Instructions

    Part I:

    In Part I of this assignment, you will explore, compare, and contrast three different coding methods utilized in qualitative data analysis open coding and two coding methods of your choice.

    1. In addition to open coding, identify two additional coding methods that you might use in the analysis of your dissertation research.
    2. Highlight the unique characteristics, advantages, and limitations of each coding method.
    3. Conclude by discussing circumstances where each method might be most effective and the implications of choosing one method over another in qualitative data analysis.

    Part II:

    In Part II of this assignment, you will familiarize yourself with the concept and practice of open coding by analyzing a qualitative dataset and generating initial codes.

    1. Access a 1.5 to 3-page qualitative dataset. You have three options.

    1. Choose from one of the sample interview transcripts below.
    1. Use an AI-generated transcript. Use the instructions below for using ChatGPT to create your transcript.
    1. Use qualitative data that you have already accessed.

    2. Transfer your dataset into a Word formatted table following the instructions below (sample transcripts provided under option A already have this step completed).

    3. Utilize the principles of open coding on the dataset. Apply an inductive approachallow codes to emerge directly from the data without imposing predefined categories. Use the sample in the link below to guide your coding.

    Combine Parts I and II into a single Word document for upload.

    Length: This assignment must be 2-3 pages (excluding the title and reference pages) and 1.5-3 pages of coding.

    References: Include four (4) scholarly resources.
