COMPETENCIES2000.1.11\u00a0:\u00a0Research Questions and Hypotheses
The graduate develops clear research questions that can be investigated and hypotheses that can be tested with empirical data.
INTRODUCTIONIn this task, you will identify a research topic, examine relevant professional sources, write an annotated bibliography, and identify a research problem of interest related to the topic.
REQUIREMENTSYour submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. An originality report is provided when you submit your task that can be used as a guide. <\/p>\n
\u00a0You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by more than one rubric aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions of the course.\u00a0 <\/p>\n
A.\u00a0 Identify an education-related research topic of interest to you (i.e., the broad subject matter area to be investigated).
\u00a0
B.\u00a0 Detail your search process by doing the following:
1.\u00a0 Identify\u00a0seven\u00a0separate search phrases or combinations of keywords used to search for literature relevant to the research topic.
2.\u00a0 Identify\u00a0two\u00a0more search phrases or combinations of keywords used to retrieve additional literature after your initial search.
3.\u00a0 Explain why specific phrases or combinations of keywords yielded the most useful searches (i.e., those that retrieved the articles most relevant to the research topic).
\u00a0
C.\u00a0 Develop an annotated bibliography using\u00a0ten\u00a0sources that meet\u00a0each\u00a0of the following guidelines:
\u2022\u00a0 contains relevant academic or professional literature relevant to the research topic
\u2022\u00a0 is published by a scholarly source
\u2022\u00a0 can be retrieved online
1.\u00a0 Provide an annotation (suggested length of 1 paragraph to \u00bd page per annotation) for\u00a0each\u00a0of the\u00a0ten\u00a0sources that includes the following:
a.\u00a0 an identification of the type of source, including the research approach used for any sources that are original research study articles (i.e., quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, or action research), if applicable
\u00a0
Note: The type of source could be, but is not limited to, an original research article, perspective article, or a professional or academic website.
\u00a0
b.\u00a0 a brief explanation of the purpose of the source
c.\u00a0 a brief description of the results or findings of the source. If the source is an original research study, include supporting details.
d.\u00a0 a critique that identifies\u00a0one\u00a0strength and\u00a0one\u00a0weakness of the source
\u00a0
D.\u00a0 Identify a research problem (i.e., a specific educational issue or problem within the broader topic area that was addressed in part A).
\u00a0
Note: This problem should not be a research question.
\u00a0
1.\u00a0 Discuss how this research problem relates to your professional setting or field of interest.
2.\u00a0 Discuss how searching the literature and developing an annotated bibliography can help you identify a research problem within a broader topic area.
\u00a0
E.\u00a0 Acknowledge sources, using APA-formatted in-text citations and references, for content that is quoted, paraphrased, or summarized.
\u00a0
F.\u00a0 Demonstrate professional communication in the content and presentation of your submission. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
