Research questions are a critical component in the doctoral research process. Research questions stem directly from the problem statement and are broad questions that should state the specific issue or problem begin addressed in the study. Research questions also guide the choice in methodology. Research questions are the questions that researchers seek to answer by addressing the specific components within the problem statement and should not be confused with interview questions. Interview or survey questions are directed at the participant to obtain information in the data collection process. To fully address the problem being studied, it is essential to have good research questions and good interview or survey questions.
After reviewing the Reading for this module and the white paper on Effective Problem Statements and Research Questions, address the following questions:
What are the qualities and characteristics of a good research question?
Describe what makes a research question effective.
Identify what can make a research question weak and why?
Explain how a researcher can develop a robust set of research questions?
What are the qualities and characteristics of good interview or survey questions?

Based on what you have learned in your texts, and after reading the three articles included in this module, write an initial post explaining what you believe are the key legal and ethical concepts and issues that professional communicators need to keep in mind for the future of communicating using digital media.

Nicholas: ADHD
Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder has affected more than 6.4 million children at some point. While there is some debate as to whether or not ADHD is a learning disability in the most technical sense, there is no doubt that it is a common learning impediment. Students who have ADHD have difficulty paying attention and staying on task. These students can be easily distracted and often have difficulty in traditional school settings. Experts link ADHD with the structure of the brain, and there is evidence that ADHD may have a genetic component as well. Unlike typical learning disabilities, which need instructional interventions, ADHD can be successfully treated with medications and behavioral therapies.

Read the Texas Annexation Documents. Imagine that it is 1844, and you are a U.S. senator who must decide whether or not to accept the treaty to annex Texas that John Tyler has presented to the Senate. Should the United States annex Texas? What are the benefits of annexation (according to the documents)? What problems might occur?

Should the United States annex Texas? Why or why not? (Remember you are writing from the perspective of people in 1844). Include data points, and follow the fact trail to strengthen your 1844-based opinion. You’re NOT writing from the perspective of you yourself today. You may pretend. Engage in pretense! Yes, you’re momentarily an “historical reenactor”! Yes! Just include plenty of facts in order to make your (pretend) opinion relevant. You’re NOT WRITING FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF YOU YOURSELF IN 2021!

To get a feel for framing empirical work in theoretical terms, please prepare a brief paper (about 4-5 pages, double-spaced, 12-point font, 1″ margins) that describes the subsystem in a U.S. domestic policy domain of your choice, and frames the discussion theoretically in terms of work on our reading list. This means that you will frame your analysis in terms of a theory that we have read, and say how theory helps illuminate the subsystem in the policy area you choose, or how empirical findings bring theory into question. Please plan to present your paper in class – about 3-5 minutes presenting, followed by questions on March 7th.
You may choose a policy area on the national, state, or local level. The discussion should identify actors within the subsystem in terms of formal and informal policy participants.

Essay #1: The Trial of Mary Barnett
Imagine that after the conclusion of the Mary Barnett trial, the public is in an uproar: a large majority of the population disagrees with the verdict you arrived at. Consequently, you are approached by the press for an interview and given an opportunity to explain how you arrived at your verdict. In a short, informal argumentative essay (4 or more pages), defend your verdict in the trial for an audience that disagrees strongly with you.
Your argumentative essay should be done individually and provide the specific reasoning and supporting evidence that your group (during “jury duty”) might have discussed only superficially. Your goal is to convince your readers that your point of view on the trial is correct and that apathy and other points of view are wrong. This is best done with a variety of appeals (logos, ethos, pathos), use of logic models (deductive, inductive, Toulmin), counterargument, and references to evidence from the case to support your points. Remember that the majority of the population disagrees with you; this means that they are your primary audience, so when discussing opposing points of view, be sure to remain fair and objective: don’t alienate your readers.
Key Features:
1. An introduction that appeals to your reader and clearly but briefly describes the trial, provides any necessary background information, and identifies any biases you might have. This section should be no more than a page long.
2. A thesis statement that presents your overall claim about the trial (this will likely be the last sentence of your introduction).
3. A description of the criteria (reasons / beliefs) that you are using as the basis of your verdict. Be sure to explain or defend your criteria if necessary.
4. A clear explanation for how you arrived at your verdict.
5. Adequate, specific evidence from the trial, class discussion, or your own deliberation to support your verdict. This can include detailed description, facts, examples, testimony, or statistics.
6. A consideration and rebuttal of at least one alternative view – this will make your evaluation more balanced.
7. Appropriate organization and paragraphing, including use of clear topic sentences. The paragraphs should be well-developed, in a logical order and use transitions to show links between ideas.
8. A conclusion that provides closure to the essay and considers the implications of the argument.
9. Consistent, correct use of MLA style (check heading, margins, title, line spacing, page numbering, parenthetical note(s), and Works Cited page (if included).
10. Observance of the conventions of standard written English.
Essay #1 (Mock Trial) Outline
Here is a generic outline for how you might present your essay. Be sure to consider your responses to the trial and consider your audience, your purpose, and the appropriate tone before you begin to write.
Sample Outline:
I. Introduction
Give background or perhaps an illustrative example to show the significance of the subject or the nature of the controversy. Get your readers’ attention, provide necessary background information, and indicate what your position is and why you hold it. Consider stating the conclusion of your argument here as the thesis of your essay.
II. Presentation of your argument (multiple paragraphs)
Throughout the body of your essay you should build your case one point at a time, perhaps devoting one paragraph to the defense of each of your premises, or setting forth your evidence in separate, meaningful categories. Using deductive reasoning, you should directly address the three criterianeeded to convict someone of second degree murder: intent, making a conscious decision, and being aware of the consequences of his or her actions.
III. Summary of Opposing Point(s) of View
Briefly and objectively summarize the point(s) of view held by your opponents. Remember that the majority of your readers also hold this opinion, so be fair and neutral in your summary of the opposing arguments. Acknowledge valid points, even if they contradict your verdict.
IV. Refutation
Provide a refutation of the opposing view(s) to make your reader aware that you have considered but rejected it (them) for good reasons. Explain those reasons, showing that the arguments that support an opposing point of view are illogical, unfair, untrue, or not the best way to view the situation. This refutation may be placed last, just before your conclusion, or even interspersed at effective locations throughout the essay. You just choose the best location.
V. Conclusion
After all your evidence has been presented and/or your premises defended, pull your whole argument together in the last paragraph by showing how the evidence you have presented provides sufficient grounds for accepting your conclusion. However, avoid mere summary. You may wish to address the “bigger picture” issues that the case brings up, such as the bystander effect, the need to raise awareness about postpartum depression, the need to protect children’s rights, and so on. You may also add here some conventional device to finish your essay, such as a call to action, a new example, a reference to the example with which you began (now seen in a new light) etc.

This is a presentation outline and Annotated Bibilography . I will tip for the extra work sense this is a two part assignment .

This assignment consists of two parts and you are required to prepare and submit two (2) separate documents as part of this activity. You will prepare and submit an annotated bibliography of three sources from the research you will gather for your country presentation. You will also prepare and submit a draft of your country presentation outline.
First, refer to any instructor provided feedback from your Module 3 Country Presentation Selection to ensure that your country has been approved. Should you need to select another country to avoid duplication, be sure to do so by the second day of this module week!
Next, search the Hunt Library databases (Links to an external site.) and locate three (3) sources on your country. These sources will come from books, book chapters, peer-reviewed scholarly journals, reports, and other scholarly sources. Wikipedia and other similar sources without named authors are prohibited. Create a Descriptive Annotated Bibliography in current APA format listing each of your three sources.
