Project 3 Instructions

Based upon the research conducted for Projects 1 and 2, select the method that you believe would be most appropriate. Next, explain why that method is the most appropriate for your research study if that was the one you chose to pursue. The problem statements and the research question should be listed, with the chosen method following. Be sure to include the justification as to why other methods would not be appropriate. Create research questions for the problem identified. Context will need to be included (i.e. how the questions relate to the problem statements), along with the actual problem statements and corresponding context. There should be at least one research question for a quantitative study, along with a corresponding hypothesis, and at least one qualitative research question. This project must contain at least two scholarly resources integrated.

This week you will be focusing on the research method to use to answer your research questions. Some examples of methods would be:

        Observation / Participant Observation.

        Surveys.

        Interviews.

        Focus Groups.

        Experiments.

        Secondary Data Analysis / Archival Study.

        Mixed Methods (combination of some of the above)
