Motivation
How can college instructors best structure their classrooms according to principles laid out by Pink? Choose one discipline and show how such a

classroom would operate based on his ideas.

This week, you learned about conducting ethnographic research. I want you to hone your analytical skills
by reading research reports-this will help you as you design your own research study. Please read the
following student-scholar research report:

1. Was ethnography the “best” choice of research methods for this topic? Why or why not?

2. How did the researcher gain entry into the site of study?

3. Evaluate how well the author discussed his research methodology in the report.

4. What suggestions would you make for improving this report?

5. What finding(s) seemed most interesting/ important to you?

Phase 3: Analyzing the Aggregate Strengths and Weaknesses
For Phase 3 of the Capstone project, analyze and describe the strengths and weaknesses of the aggregate
and the community where the aggregate resides.
Be sure to apply Mobilize, Assess, Plan, Implement, Track (MAP-IT) in your assessment process.
• Bythe due date assigned, submit your response in a 1-page Microsoft Word document.
• Support your responses with examples.
• Cite all sources in APA format.
Phase 4: Risk Assessment
For Phase 4 of your project, you will select a family in your aggregate and complete a risk assessment in
the field using the information from chapter 18 “Community as Client: Assessment and Analysis” and
“Appendix D Friedman Family Assessment Model (Short Form)” as a guide. Describe how the family,
environment, home, and risk assessments were conducted, using your course textbook as a reference.
Describe the results of the assessments, drawing conclusions about the health risks to the aggregate as you
see them.
• Bythe due date assigned, submit your response in a 2- to 3-page Microsoft Word document.
• Support your responses with examples.
• Cite all sources in APA format.
Submission Details:

Provide a research paper on the attached file. This is a qualitative research study. The paper must include the background of the study,

methods, results, ethical considerations, and a conclusion. There must also be a thesis and a purpose and a reference page. 1000-1250 words.

Consider what you learned about establishing goals consistent with your values and ethics. Have you ever set a goal for yourself and accomplished it after much hard work and dedication? What motivated you and how did the results make you feel?

NOTE: Remember that your discussion response must include the following:
1. A reflection on the concept we are discussing. Give us a summary of things you learned about this concept from your assigned chapter readings.
2. A thorough example/discussion to support your reflection.
3. A final statement that tells us what you take away from this week’s lesson.
4. Properly formatted in-text citations and references.
5. Strong grammar, spelling, and mechanics.
6. In total your discussion should be at least 250 words.
When responding to your peers, be sure to connect on both personal and theoretical level by reacting to what was said, supporting your reactions with scholarly sources (e.g., your textbook), and identifying potential additional concepts or communication strategies to consider. End your responses with open-ended questions to extend conversation.

Discussion Prompt 1

Midlife Crisis: Myth or Reality?

Is there such as thing as a midlife crisis in your opinion? Describe what psychologists mean when they discuss this and why they believe it occurs. Given what you have learned about the desire for generativity in middle adulthood and the effects of stress, what advice would you give to someone at this stage of development to help them navigate challenges? Would your advice be the same for men and women? Explain and support your reasoning with information from the text and other course materials.

Note: the expectation is you write a paper in a research methods style. This means using citations to support claims, statements, facts or

opinions you present. When you write the paper do not write anywhere about the ‘assignment’ or ‘course/class’ – although you are writing

this paper because of the course you should not mention this in the paper.
Also, do not use the prompts listed below as questions/subheadings in your paper. For example, don’t write ‘Justify why you selected this

issue’ in the paper and then answer this question. You answer this question in the course of writing your page 1 just as the articles in

the readings you read answer this question without specifically writing ‘justify why you selected this issue.’
The paper should be written in APA style. In this paper and other papers in the course you should avoid personal stories about your

personal experiences. An abstract is not needed for this paper.

Page 1 and 2: Intro
Present a general surface-level description of the issue the paper’s content will examine (references).
Explain why understanding this case is important (references).
Justify why you selected this issue (references).
What specific question(s) are you trying to answer?

Page 3: Method
Use the attached method template (Word) to format this section.
You should include a copy of your survey in the appendix of your paper but this does not count toward the 5 page total. The appendix does

not need to be in APA style.

Page 4: Results
Analyze the results from a college athletics survey.
Use statistical analyses you deem appropriate to analyze the data produced by the content analysis.
Present the results of the statistical analyses in APA style.
Do not forget to analyze the open-ended questions as well.
The analysis of the data from the survey can be completed as a group, pairs, threes, or individually.
You do not need to analyze all the questions in the survey. Analyze only what is sufficient to meet the page space of the results section

as outlined in the paper instructions.
It is important to make sure the question/topic you pose in the introduction (pages 1-2) is answered at least in part by the results

presented in the results section.

Page 5: Discussion
Explain what your data means.
Offer some tentative explanations as to why you think you found the data you did.
Provide some suggested practical implications from your results.
List two things you recognize as being wrong with your survey and identify how you would resolve these problems if you were to repeat the

survey.
Note: Remember that margins should be set to 1 inch, the default for Word is typically 1.25 inches.

 

Read pages 561-597. In 5 pages, identify specific problems and key issues and offer recommendations for the company. It is a requirement to base your

recommendations as if it is January 2003, rather than present day. One of the sources should be “Managerial Economics and Business Strategy” (8th Edition)

written by Michael Baye and Jeffrey Prince. .
