  • Wk2: Ethics in Research

    Based on the ethical principles (and error-laden examples in the past) that we studied this week, do researchers have an ethical obligation when their findings could be used to justify controversial policies, such as mass surveillance, indefinite detention, or biased and discriminatory practices in the name of homeland security?

    Research Topic Post This term you will be researching a topic related to your major or career goals at Wiregrass. For example, if you are studying cosmetology, you might want to research licensing requirements in various states or issues related to types of techniques, technologies or products available to cosmetologists. If you arent sure, ask one of you instructors if there are any interesting topics to research in your particular area of study. First, read chapters 3.1 Choosing a Research Methodology and 3.2 The Writing Process: Researching in Essential Communication Skills. You will be engaging in formal secondary research, which means you will be finding authoritative, credible sourcing support your ideas. One of the keys to successful research is the use of databases to find authoritative sources. Access GALILEO and use the database EBSCOhost/Business Source Complete (you can also try other databases!). Choose a journal or topic that aligns with your program at Wiregrass, and browse the articles and see if there is a topic that interests you. Use what you learn from these articles to search for more articles to develop your ideas. You can use different databases, or just search all of GALILEO. Open-web sourcing is allowed, but I would like you to start on GALILEO. Next, you will upload a Word or PDF document formatted according to APA guidelines containing a paragraph of at least a half a page describing the topic you think you would like to explore for your research essay. Give the reasons for your selection and explain what interests you about this topic. Provide constructive feedback to at least two of your classmates. *In all discussion posts, constructive feedback is defined as thoughtful, specific, and conversational. Answers that are purely complimentary (good job!) or otherwise non-specific (I wrote the same thing!) will not be given credit.

  • Topic 8 DQ 1

    According to Skakni (2017), not all doctoral learners who receive high marks in their coursework successfully complete their doctoral programs. As such, an A grade in RES-815 does not necessarily lead to an approved dissertation signed by the Dean of the College of Doctoral Studies. It will require a combination of skill sets beyond academic success that will contribute to growing as a learner and a scholar. It will require learners to work not only independently but also collaboratively, partnering with residency faculty and the dissertation committee. How can the adjustment to and mindset of the independent researcher contribute to working productively as a professional with your committee?
