I WILL TIP-Writing About Psychological Science (proposal intro)

I WILL TIP
Final Research Proposal Introduction
Your introduction should accomplish two goals:
Discuss the important findings from previous studies that are relevant to your project so that your reader can gauge the current understanding of the topic
Present your study’s major objectives and detailed hypothesis
Designed to interest your reader in your topic and proposal, provide some context for your study, and provide a comprehensive argument for why you are planning to conduct the study and what you are expecting to happen based on previous research.

Paper Format:
Problem statement (1 Paragraph):
Start with a problem statement to define the issue at hand. What is the problem? Why is the problem significant? If the problem is that there is an absence of research on this topic, why is contributing to our understanding of the topic important?

Literature review (2 -3 Paragraphs):
Provide context using past research to describe the topic in detail. Connect the sources and material you have read about your topic to help your audience understand your variables. Go beyond just summarizing other studies – clearly demonstrate how your study builds on existing scholarship/research. This is where you provide the background and significance of your study.
Your synthesis sentences from Lab Project #2 are a great place to start – find at least 2 more sources and write synthesis sentences on the study’s finding. Use these sentences as a foundation for your literature review.
In this week’s reading, “Influence of Red Jersey Color on Physical Parameters in Combat Sports”, the introduction is the first 6 paragraphs (not including the abstract) before the Methods Please review this article before you start writing so that you have an example of what a literature review might look like.

Proposed argument/research question & hypothesis (1 Paragraph):
Present the study’s research question, your major objectives, and how you plan to explore the problem/question.
Formulate a research question that is narrowly focused so that you have a manageable research question based on a testable hypothesis.
List the independent/dependent variables and your operational definitions for the variables.
Explain how you plan to study each variable in broad terms (save the more detailed description of the procedure for your method section).
Hypothesis: what do you predict the results of your study will be or what do you expect to find once you have conducted your study?
This should not be intuitive/based on anecdotes; you should have come to this prediction based on the literature that you reviewed, that is why a hypothesis is an educated guess.

Submission Formatting:

2-3 full pages, not including the title page and the reference page.

Audience & Power Research Essay

COURSE – COMS3406 Media Audiences and Users

Assignment – Audiences & Power Research Essay (8-10 Pages) (35%)

Assignment Description
In Desperately Seeking the Audience (1991) Ien Ang claims the audience is like a “fugitive”: global media corporations constantly seek to control and monitor them. But if audiences are fugitives they are also armed and dangerous. That is, they may consume media in affirmational and sanctioned ways on industrial terms. Or they may transform media by engaging with it in critical and unsanctioned ways.
Write an 8-10-page research essay that studies power relations between a fandom of your choice and the industry or agent that produces the media they consume. The fandom should be one that is accessible to you (hint: online fandoms on social media sites like Reddit are usually accessible). Observe the members of your chosen fandom. Consider:

• Who do you think is included in this group? To what extent do their identities overlap with the
industry’s implied audience?
• What norms or values do they exhibit? Do they have rules (either overt or unwritten) that set out who may participate and how? Do you see any economic, social, or other hierarchies at work?
• How do these fans engage their chosen media? What cultural forms (e.g., conventions, fanfiction, fanvids) do they produce or consume? Would you characterize their engagement as affirmational or transformational?
• Do they carry out other political, personal, or social dialogue, or is their focus solely on the media?
• Do you see any evidence of industry engaging the fandom? Are there any points of tension
between fans and industry? How do you characterize this relationship?

Reflect on what your fandom reveals about audiences and their agency more broadly. Consider what, if any, implications this fandom may have for media industries. Support your argument with appropriate evidence.
Include a works cited that have a minimum of 7 relevant sources. These sources should be used in your paper. At least 4 of the sources must be academic. You are not required to use course readings in this paper, but if you do, they will count as academic sources.

Format and Style 1. Assignment should be double-spaced and typed in 12 pt. Times New Roman with 1” margins.
2. Include a title page with the assignment title. Your assignment’s title should be concise and descriptive.
3. Cite all sources according to the APA style guide.
4. Number all pages.
5. Proofread your assignment to catch any spelling or grammar mistakes before submitting.

KM Technology Profile

One of the key ways knowledge is managed in organizations—especially medium and large organizations—is through the use of dedicated KM technologies. For this 3-5 page (double-spaced) paper, your task is to find an example of a KM technology (a few examples are below, but those as popular as Slack or an organizational wiki can certainly work—and if you work with a particular KM technology in your job, that would be appropriate for this assignment as well.One of the key ways knowledge is managed in organizations—especially medium and large organizations—is through the use of dedicated KM technologies.

Part A: asks for a brief overview of what the technology offers—what are its capabilities, objectively?
Part B: is the main conceptual part of the paper. It asks you to unpack the assumptions about knowledge, communication, organization, and power that are, in effect, designed into the features and functions of the KM technology you chose. I’ve included a few guiding questions (among many other possible ones) to inform your thinking about where some of these connections to course content might be. These are not the only questions possible, so let your thinking take you where it might:
knowledge:
Is the KM tech designed with the idea that knowledge is the same as data or information? Is the tech designed in such a way as to accommodate knowledge an entity/thing, or as a process of knowing? Does the tech appear to address challenges with tacit knowledge or explicit knowledge?
communication:
What view of communication does the tech adopt–is communication a process of connecting people so they can transmit messages (thing-like pieces of information in their final form) to each other? Or, do the tech features enable people to construct (or build or eventually arrive at) some meaning/plan/idea at the end of their interaction that nobody would have guessed at the beginning of their interaction?
organization:
Does the tech assume the organization is a real thing, a given, a physical or legal structure out there in the world somewhere? Or is what we consider an “organization” something that we are constantly creating and recreating through our interactions, through invoking official organizational documents, through using (or changing or ignoring) structures that make organizational work happen?
power:
How does the tech consider power? Does its features assume power is egalitarian when everyone in the organization knows that could never be the case? Does the tech allow access to features for some people in the organization, but not others? Is the tech designed with the idea the certain roles of people “have” power, or does it consider how power unfolds in ongoing interactions?
Part C: asks you to speculate on some unintended consequences of the regular organizational use of this particular technology.Part A: asks for a brief overview of what the technology offers—what are its capabilities, objectively?

1. Overview and Central Issue – This subsection provides a brief overview that tells a fairly well informed (but perhaps non-specialist) reader what your research is about. It should provide background information and rationale for the need for the research, so that the reader is persuaded that it will be useful/interesting.

2. Purpose- Once the topic is established, discuss what the aim of your research is and identify specifically the research question(s) your work addresses in your report.

3. Significance: Discuss why is this work important? Show why this is important to answer this question. What are the implications of doing it? How does it link to other knowledge? How does it stand to inform policy making?

Research Question(s): Identify specifically the research question(s) your work addresses in your report. (e.g. what is the relationship between income and educational levels in America? How do UHWO students describe their learning experience in STEM programs? Etc.)

4. Summary: Very briefly (this is still the introduction) summarize the key points discussed in your introduction and gives an outline of subsequent sections.

The Intersection of Art and Social Change

We have discussed the impact of the publication of The Second Sex by Simone de Beauvoir in 1949. It could be said that her work shifted the way women’s creative expression was presented and viewed in Europe and the United States in the second half of the 20th century. This shift was especially true as the women’s and civil rights movements heated up in the 1960s and 1970s. The creative expression of women during this era began to address issues like identity and equality, if not overtly, like artists Judy Chicago and Carrie Weems, by lifestyle, like Georgia O’Keeffe. A play by a young Lorraine Hansberry provides an example of how life and art intersect. Hansberry’s play, A Raisin in the Sun (1959) about a struggling black family in Chicago, was the first to be produced on Broadway by a black playwright, making gains for both women and African Americans in the literary field.

For this journal assignment, discuss the ways women’s artistic expression and movements for social change intersect in the second half of the 20th century (after 1950). To complete this journal, first reflect on what it means to say that the arts and social change intersect. Next, analyze how you see this trend specifically in women’s artistic expression. Be sure to support your discussion by providing examples of at least two creative women from the late 20th century whose work makes a statement about society and perhaps suggests ways to make it better. Select your two examples of creative women from women introduced in the required or recommended resources. These women should work in two different genres, for example painting, photography, writing, dance, etc.

Finally, for your conclusion (your final page), think about ways you have seen the arts and social change intersect in your community. In this case, the art in your community could have been created by women, men, or collaborations as our emphasis here is on the way art and social change intersect. For example, artist and architect Maya Lin’s Civil Rights Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama, honors 40 individuals who died fighting for equal rights between 1954 and 1968. Her work recognizes the sacrifices freedom and equality require. . If none of your research turns up art that makes a statement for social change in your community, imagine and discuss how you might address—with an artistic solution—an important issue that needs changing in your community.
