Analyzing Quantitative Research

After reading Motivational Effects of Test Scores of Elementary Students (Brown & Walberg, 1993), in a one- to two-page paper, analyze and evaluate the article by answering the following questions. (Remember, you are analyzing the article. Just because this is the chosen study to work with does not mean it is excellent.)

  • What are the research question(s) and/or hypotheses?
  • Describe what data collection methods were used.
  • Identify the study as experimental or non-experimental. Justify your choice with evidence.
  • Do data collection methods match the research question?
  • Evaluate the author’s discussion and conclusions. Has the author made generalizations that are not supported by the study’s data?
  • Describe any ethical issues in the study.

Support your statements with evidence from the required studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.

If you need additional help thinking about your article, read chapter 9 in Understanding Education Research: A Guide to Critical Reading as it will help you explore the findings section in a quantitative article.

article questions 13

ASSIGNMENT 1: Read the following essay, “Religion in the Form of Art.” I want you to write a reverse outlineof this essay; by this I mean that I want you to tell me the thesis of the paper, the topic of each body paragraph, and how that paragraph develops the thesis and relates to the previous point of the argument.

ASSIGNMENT 2:

Now that you have your reverse outline, I want you to write a one paragraph critique of this paper’s argument. What is effective about it? What is it missing? How would you fix it? Are any points left unconnected or undeveloped? What did you learn from this paper that you could apply to your own?

ASSIGNMENT 3:

Remember – I want your body paragraphs to each prove a single, specificclaim.

The following paragraph has many excellent ideas, but its topic sentence doesn’t assert a specificclaim. Instead, it just asserts that there are “many ways” in which religion is like art, and proceeds to condense many ideas, each worthy of its own, isolated paragraph, into one long, sprawling graph, that doesn’t leave the author any space to explore their terrific ideas.

For this last assignment, I want you to find all of the individual paragraph ideas within this paragraph. Then, see if these individual ideas connect! How would you connect them into an argument, or a thesis?

discussion question 1779

Please answer the following Discussion Question. Please be certain to answer the two questions and provide at least 2 references.

Case Study,

Technology in Health Care: Opportunities, Limitations, and Challenges

Technology has already dramatically transformed health care, shaping both consumer and provider expectations. With advances in technology, however, have come new opportunities, limitations, and challenges. Technology can cut costs, improve patient outcomes, streamline workflow, and improve information accessibility. It can also be costly, require almost limitless ongoing training, and continually bring about new ethical dilemmas, including the need to assure the “human element” is not lost in patient care. Determining what technology should be developed and how it should be used in an era of limited resources, with vulnerable populations, raises multiple ethical questions.

Faculty at a college of nursing present a seminar for their students on the use of technology in today’s health care system.

1. Describe technology advances that are used in health care today.

2. The nursing faculty concludes the presentation by stating that decisions should be made about what technology can best be used in each individual setting and how it should be used. Describe some points to consider in implementing technology in health care.
