QUALITATIVE RESEARCH STUDY REPORT

Overview

In this assignment, you will analyze a quantitative research study. To complete this analysis, you will use the Week 5 Template: Qualitative Research Study Report [DOC]  - INCLUDED SEPARATELY document to respond to a series of prompts and questions aimed at four different parts of the research study:

· Introduction.

· Methodology.

· Results.

· Discussion/Conclusion.

This assignment will give you practice reading, comprehending, and analyzing a very sophisticated, peer-reviewed qualitative research article. This skill set will serve you well as you begin the process of acquiring, reading, and comprehending quantitative literature related to your intended proposed applied improvement project (AIP). Even if you do not have a clearly defined problem of practice, you probably have an idea of the general area in which your AIP will investigate. There is no time like the present to begin developing your annotated bibliography because you must become completely knowledgeable about the literature surrounding your topic in order to develop an empirically sound AIP. Your goal should be to achieve "theoretical saturation" with the literature in your field. This means that any new article you encounter reflects another article or idea with which you are already familiar, which will provide a solid basis for developing your project.

Instructions

The following research article provides an example of how quantitative research methods can be applied to understanding structural relationships between human capital investments and long-term organizational outcomes. Read the article carefully and review the Creswell and Creswell text, the Pyrczak and Oh text, and other course resources and materials as necessary: 

· Bourdeaux, R., & Schoenack, L. (2016).  Adult student expectations and experiences in an online learning environment . The Journal of Continuing Higher Education, 64, 152–161. – INCLUDED SEPARATELY

Once you have read and made notes on the article, complete the Template: EVERY BIT EXACT Qualitative Research Study Report document linked above to help you analyze the article. Address all prompts in the document and answer all questions. Include a list of properly-formatted references at the end.

Enrichment Exercise

At the end of your assignment, choose to develop a list of outstanding questions you have regarding quantitative research and design. This list will provide you areas where you can continue to investigate quantitative research on your own (for example, develop a plan for further self-study), and serve as a guide for your continued development as a scholar.
