Data Collection and Summary

Order Instructions

Once a research focus is selected, the vision and target have been clarified, and research questions have been developed, a researcher begins to plan data collection based upon the research questions. Data collection takes on different formats, such as observation, surveys, samples, documents, multimedia materials, assessments, and interviews. This is the fourth step of the action research process. Data provides the researcher with the ability to investigate authentic behaviors, responses, and work samples in an attempt to respond to the research questions.

Select at least one of the format options listed (i.e. observation, surveys, samples, documents, multimedia materials, assessments, and/or interviews) to collect data based on the vision, target, and research questions developed in Topics 1 and 2. Create a graphic organizer to display the data collected that aligns to the research questions created in Topic 2.

In addition to your graphic organizer, write a 500-750 word essay to include the following:

Explain the data collection process and the research considerations for your action research study.

Describe the data collection plan and the rationale for your selected data collection method.

Support your data collection plan with 3-5 scholarly resources.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Will this paper be ready by Wednesday? And I need a graphic organizer from topic 2 and 500 words from the 2 question that they ask.
