Research Action Proposal

Complete Section Four: Outcomes and Evaluation of your Action Research Proposal.

Expected outcomes

For each action goal you presented in Section Three, provide specific outcomes you hope to see if you were to implement this action research project.
Each goal may have several outcomes; therefore, number each outcome and present it in list form.
The outcomes should be stated in observable, measurable terms (example: The researcher anticipates that the intervention will result in 50% of the participants having increased reading scores).
The outcomes should relate specifically to the documentation you provide.
Measurement of outcomes (Discuss data collection methods such as observations, interviews, grades, test scores, etc.).

Describe how you plan to measure each projected outcome.
Be specific about particular instruments and methods you would use.
This information is intended to aid another researcher interested in replicating your study.
Where possible, include copies of tests, questionnaires, or other instruments in an Appendix.
Analysis of results

Describe how you plan to analyze your results. Will you use bar graphs, pie charts, etc?
Will you use coding to look for patterns or themes that may emerge? Will you conduct an interim data analysis?
Explain how you would determine if your solution strategy was effective.
Explain how you would present your report of findings and to whom you would present them.
References

List all sources you used to complete and support your action research proposal, particularly those used for the literature review.
You should have at minimum the 7 sources from your literature review that were listed on the ARP Section Two reference page.
Ensure your sources are cited according to APA guidelines throughout the paper. Be sure to format the reference page, per APA format.

Reminders: Use APA format. Always include a title page, an introduction and a conclusion.

campus/community garden

Step 1: Walk through the space and observe.  What do you see?  What is the garden/farm like?  What do you notice?  What services are offered?  What do you notice about people using the space, or who it is intended for?  Engage your 5 senses to explore the garden.  
Step 2: Take a selfie at the garden to upload with your assignment. (You can take a selfie with your computer screen if doing this virtually!)
Step 3: Write an OIA Reflection.  O=observe, I=interpret, A=apply
Observe:  List some of the key observations you made.
Interpret:  What do your observations mean?  Why is the facility like it is?  Why do they offer the services you noted above?  Discuss the “why” behind your observations, your analysis of the facility.
Apply:  How does this space add to the environmental wellness of the community?  What overlaps do you see with other dimensions of wellness (i.e. physical, mental, spiritual, occupational, intellectual, social, or financial)?
Step 4:  Upload your OIA reflection (about 3 paragraphs) and selfie to this assignment.

Evaluating an executive summary

This paper is only about evaluating an executive summary following a rubric.

I will provide you with two executive summaries. So please respond a page for each executive summary.

I will provide a couple of examples of how they evaluated the executive summary so you can have an idea how to do it.

Please do the same.

Structure & Rubrics for Executive Summary:
    Synapsis of the strategy challenge (Rubric: How far it captures the attention of potential employers).
    Relevance to the team (Rubric: How far it presents the authors personal capital of focus and maturity) 
    Methodology of data collection (How far it illustrates investment to the authors social capital capabilities of connecting with the company, industry, and markets)
    Rigor of added value (How it justifies the authors professional capital capabilities to analyze and solve a real-life challenge with rigor and relevance)

Forensic Psychology

Chapter 4
CHECKS is a heuristic that is being used to facilitate evidence-based assessment (EBA). The
model of CHECKS in Chapter 4 follows the assessment and treatment planning of an adolescent
named Melinda. Please use each letter of the acronym CHECKS and following the model in the
chapter, describe a case you might see of a child or adolescent that has come to you as a result of
trauma. Please do not feel compelled to have sexual abuse or assault as the focus of the trauma.
As you see in the example, Melinda had additional traumas related to loss, which you should
consider including in your model.
Breaking down the CHECKS heuristic by letter, please develop the assessment and treatment
plan for the person (real or imagined) that you choose. I understand you have not assessed the
person as was done in the model; however, please include assessment instruments that you might
use to assess the particular issues that individual has come to you for. Be sure to clearly identify
what letter of the CHECKS heuristic you are writing about, and separate paragraphs. With
respect to treatment issues, please describe what treatment interventions would be appropriate for
your model. In addition, please remember to talk about post-intervention; how would you do it?
How long would you follow-up with the individual?

Chapter 5
Choose a theory about PTSD from Chapter 5 and find at least 2 peer-reviewed sources that
further expand on the theory you chose. Consider the following questions:
Why did you choose this theory?
Why do you feel this theory is the best way to understand PTSD?
How do the additional sources help you better understand the theory?

Assignment 3

Respond to the prompt in essay form. Answer all components of the prompt. Use 200 250 words. Employ good grammar and mechanics. Do not use filler expressions such as I think, I feel, etc.

Compare Picasso’s Guernica to Goya’s THE THIRD OF MAY 1808, 1814. Both paintings deal with the subject of war and man’s brutality to man. Even though these artists painted these pictures about one hundred years apart, how are they similar? And, both artists painted in different styles and contexts, so how are these paintings different?
