Your Research Methodology and Design
You need to select one of the methods(Survey,experiment, and field research) that we have been studying that seems to best fit the needs of your research question. In other words, describe how you will operationalize you research question of interest. While it may be that more than one method could be employed, you should settle on one method, then describe why it is appropriate or fits the needs of your question of interest (i.e., theory testing vs. theory building; looking for causal relationship; exploration; description, etc.). This will be your rationale for the design choice. You will also provide some detail as to the specific elements of the design, appropriate to the method. For survey, for example, you would identify the population of interest, and describe your sampling plan.
For an experiment, you need to describe the independent variable(s), the dependent variable(s), and how random assignment to condition will be achieved. You should use the language appropriate to the method in describing the variables of interest, the measures to be implemented, the hypotheses tested, the data collection plan, etc. See examples below. You can use the article assignments on each method as other examples to guide you.

Quantitative Journal Article Review

For this assignment, you need to find a peer-reviewed academic journal article that researches an electronic media topic with a quantitative research method using statistical analysis of the data. How to find a peer- reviewed academic journal article is covered on the first day of the course. The article you use must have been published within the past three years and this article must not be included in the annotated bibliography list from last semester (look this up on Blackboard). Every student must use a different article for this assignment. Please send an email containing a pdf file of the article (no URL links) to instructor to gain approval to use the article for the assignment.
This assignment is a basic exercise to see if you can follow the structure of conducting scholarly research as presented in an academic journal article. After reading and digesting the article a few times, write a paper outlining the following items:
1) Explain what is being researched in the article (the initiating issue or problem) and why the author(s) is/are researching this topic. Identify the topic under investigation and how the author(s) was/were attempting to progress mass media research.
2) How did the author(s) take the topic or issue and get to the research questions and/or hypotheses to guide the methodology of the study? Explain how the authors took the concepts from their initiating inquiry and created observable constructs using a theoretical perspective (theory).
3) Explain which research method is being used. (Note: statistics are tests of data, not a research method). Essentially, you are explaining what the authors observed and how the observed phenomena were measured (which should be explicitly stated as formal research questions and/or hypotheses). Explain how the data were collected.
4) Explain how the findings of the study progress the specific field of research. Since this article is published in a peer reviewed academic journal it is assumed that it has value to the field, explain that value. Do not get caught up in any limitations or suggestions for future research. Remember scholarly research rarely changes the world, but is a small step toward greater understanding of a small specific topic of the field. Identify what that small step was with this article.
This assignment should not summarize the article but analyze how the author(s) of the article went from a basic question of inquiry to an organized study with findings and conclusions. The point of this assignment is for you to demonstrate a basic understanding of what was done in the study and why the study was done this particular way to progress the field of mass media research. Do NOT make the assignment any more than that. Do NOT critique the merits or make judgments about the quality of the research.
This journal article review should not exceed five pages in length. The APA bibliographical reference for the article should be at the top of your essay. If you use other sources beyond the article in your review, then you must list the references at the end in the APA format. Outside sources are not required to complete the assignment.

Hydraulic Services

ASSIGNMENT 2: HYDRAULIC SERVICES
Assume that each of the following is available:
Sewer: DN150 sewer located in the nature strip to the southern footpath of the road, with an assumed
invert level of RL 41.500. Sanitary drainage will connect to this main via a sewer boundary trap
(SBT) located within the property on the northern boundary. Design is required to upstream
side of SBT only.
Stormwater: Stormwater will discharge to a below-grade SDT in southern boundary carpark (see location
and plan dimensions on drawing) and then to the western kerb of the street. The gutter
discharge RL will need to be determined as part of the exercise. Use rainfall intensity data for
Rockhampton based on 20 minute duration (10 year ARI) and accept that Local Council
requires a design based on maximum 90L/s/Ha allowable runoff (i.e. your exercise is to
nominate the SDT depth based on inflow versus allowable outflow at the 20minute peak).
Potable water: DN100 main located in western footpath to the street, with invert at a constant 1.0m below
footpath. The supply authority can only guaranteed a pressure of 18mH and because it is in a
new growth area of the city, you need to install a surge tank as the mandatory design. You
must achieve 150kPa at the most disadvantaged outlet. Consider carefully the facilities and
determine overall capacity (mH and L/s) for a pressure set serving the development from a
surge tank location that you will note on your drawings.
Assessment Criteria
Using your appreciation of hydraulics installations to all levels of the building (Under-floor, ground and first floors
and roof), determine the following noting that you will be assessed on the points in each section:
1. Cold Water Supply System [40% of assignment 2]
