You must assemble the scrapbook as follows:

1. Provide a title with course and personal information.

2. Provide a table of contents of your scrapbook.

3. Choose five (5) topics that appeal to you the most, and provide the following items for each one:

1. One picture (graphic format is not important) that you believe best captures the concept.
2. Two Web sites with two to three sentences that describe the Web site for each concept
3. One article summary (the article must be at least two pages in length)from a peer-reviewed journal for each concept you choose. You must include a means of gaining access to a copy of the article (e.g., the appropriate doi or an active hyperlink) in the references section.
4. Three to five paragraphs describing why you chose the pictures, Web sites, and articles for each concept.

4. A five- to seven-page (double-spaced) personal reflection paper. You must include at least two references (citations within the paper). The reflection paper is your chance to describe how you interpret and understand the material. Include any thoughts about how you perceive you can use the information learned from the course.

Philosophical Differences Between Qualitative and Quantitative Paradigms and Approaches

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read Chapter 1 in the Frost e-book, Qualitative Research Methods in Psychology, and the required journal articles for this week. Also review last week’s PSY635 Week Two Discussion Scenario (Links to an external site.). In that scenario, the three instructors realized there are limits to the insights they can gain through anonymous counting of discussion posts. The instructors would like to answer two additional research questions: (a) How do their students actually feel about the intervention? and (b) How do students view the influence of the intervention on their learning inside and outside of the classroom (if applicable)?

In your initial post, compare the characteristics of appropriate research designs and recommend a qualitative research design that would facilitate answering the instructors’ additional questions. Explain the philosophical paradigm underlying the recommended approach. Evaluate the required articles for this week and describe the  assumptions the instructors might have to set aside as they enter into a qualitative research study. Be sure to identify any ethical issues that may apply to the research. Review the characteristics of the quantitative approach you described in the Week Two discussion. Explain the ways in which the quantitative approach and paradigm differs from the qualitative approach and paradigm you have recommended here.

In Chapter 8 of the webtext, you’ll read Demystifying Decision-Making, an article by Maud Purcell (2016) that offers four steps in the decision making process:

1. Clearly define the problem

2. Brainstorm possible choices

3. List the pros and cons of each choice

4. Engage your feelings as well as your intellect

In this discussion, we want you to engage in the decision making process as it relates to earning your degree. In your post, focus on step 1 (clearly defining the problem) and step 2 (brainstorm possible choices) of the decision making process.

Answer these questions in your discussion post:

· What problem will earning your degree solve?

· Brainstorm three things that you can do today to start to prepare yourself for your future goals.

For example, maybe you are earning your degree at Strayer to change your career from retail to accounting. The problem that you are working to solve is how to gain the knowledge, skills, and credentials that will allow you to get a job as an entry-level accountant.

Similarly, three things that you can do today to help with your goal might be:

· Create a profile on LinkedIn

· Network with accounting firms in my area to find out what they look for in new hires

· Research and join a professional association for accounting

To receive full credit, remember to write 2 posts in the discussion: one original and a response to another student. Your original should be at least 7 sentences, and your reply should be 4 sentences.
