Action research

Deciding on a Research questions was a very difficult process for me, I had the idea of internment in my mind, however, I found it challenging to formulate my question from that. My original idea was focusing on a comparison between Australian World War I and II internment camps and modern detention centres. However, when I did some basic research on the topic I realised that the detention centres aspect simply wont engage me enough to allow me to get a good depth of understanding and knowledge…

Before starting my practicum at Lutheran Social Services I already had researched information regarding those within the elderly. I wanted to explore seeing ways I can offer my services for those within this population before taken such action. I honestly wasn’t sure how I was going to be able to apply doing “inform scientific inquiry” without knowing how to do this in an effective way or back up the information I had gathered.

allowed me to observe a consumer’s actual behaviour rather than the ideal behaviour prescribed by society. The consumers, as a result, were honest in their actions and decisions. The observational method was an ideal way to ease me, a novice in anthropology, into the area of field research. We were instructed to use the non-participant field research method where I was required to observe what consumers did in a natural context without interfering. I felt this was very beneficial because it…

of the township or school board. With the approval of an ethics committee, the researcher becomes more reputable and can communicate this accomplishment to establish a trusting relationship with the community. At this step in the community based research project, the researcher can begin organizing the Get Healthy event. Ideally, the Get Healthy event will be a free afternoon/evening for individuals of the community to socialize and learn about their health. The Improved Nutrition and…

very class, I want to become a Psychiatrist. The field of psychology is so intricate and there is so much to research. The mind has so many aspects to it and at Johns Hopkins I can explore the different aspects.In my psychology class, my favorite section was the biology of the brain. In this section we would discuss all the different parts in the brain and how they translate to daily actions. My psychology teacher told the class that this topic would probably be the least enjoyable. I felt the…

supposition used in the research, it is clear that the best plan of quasi study would be the nonequivalent control group post-test. It is possible that using the exams instead of the weekly quizzes. It is possible that using the exams instead of the weekly quizzes to measure student learning that layout of the study could be altered. Therefore, it seems that the best approach…

This research proposal starts with understanding the organisational culture of the U.S Military, that proposes the use of fusion cells in order to quantify the data collected from multiple units collectively in order to share knowledge and action best plan. In order to investigate organisational efficiencies, my initial interest took me to research and correspond with the military and specifically “Fusion Cells” within the special forces. I wanted to learn about their role from a climate of…

A major shift in society occurred between 1870-1916 during America’s time of industrialization.

The massive changes that were occurring sparked the Progressive Movement that lasted half of the…

Lacks family, the scientists involved, and the author herself. Three key issues discussed in this book are the ethics of informed consent for research, the ethics of genetic engineering, and how scientists relay information to people who are not experts in their areas of practice. The foundation of this book revolves around the ethical issue of consent in research and when it is necessary. In the mid 1950’s there were very few laws about doctors and scientists obtaining informed consent from…
