I view this course as a true definition of development. Prior to
the class, I was unaware of the extensiveness of qualitative and
quantitative methodology. I did not know how to write a
complete problem statement, purpose statement, or nature
of study. I originally selected to compose a qualitative research
paper with no real knowledge of how to do so. Although I will
still write a qualitative research paper, I now understand the
required framework for this type of scholarly work. The
knowledge gained from this experience has taught me how to
effectively research, ask questions, and use available resources
to make this journey a little less stressful.
One of my major areas of weakness is anthropomorphism
because I often give human traits to inanimate objects (APA,
2010). I was previously unaware that I wrote in this way. Once
the professor explained the error that I was making, I re-read
the section in the APA manual about anthropomorphism. I have
since, worked to apply the methods listed in the APA manual to
correct this problem. Another weakness has been with properly
forming my problem statement. After reading the feedback
from my peers, I found a way to apply their advice. I was able
to compose a hook that had a wow factor, I made sure that my
anchor citations were within 5 years, and I kept my paragraph to
approximately 150 words (Walden University, 2016a). Having
a strong beginning to my paper will attract readers and keep
them engaged throughout the paper. Since I am working on a
qualitative methodology, I want to work on making my
questions align better with my research study.

4. When researching my topic and learning more about retention
and job satisfaction amongst call center representatives, I have
identified several ways to promote positive social change. One
way to promote positive social change is to try to decrease
employee turnover, which can, in turn, help the organization to
sustain profitability. Another social change would be to help
boost employee morale, which can increase retention. Overall,
it is a win for both the organization and the employees.
My questions, in regards to the doctoral study program, include
needing more information on how to find additional scholarly
articles that I can use in my research. Another question just
deals with finding the best way to make sure that I keep my
paper aligned with the rubric so that it can help me to write my
paper in a timely manner. I know that more questions will come
as I continue my journey. However, I can already recognize the
positive effects of this course, because the research process is
starting to make more sense to me.

crimes. Retrieved October 3,

crimes/index.htmln.com/201
In this article it talks about the four main reasons people
commit these vicious hate crimes. The
four reasons it states are that it’s thrill-seeking, defensive,
retaliatory, and mission-offenders.
Thrill-seeking offenders create hate crimes because they do it
for the drama it causes and the
thrill their bodies feel after. Defensive offenders do it because
they see it as protecting their home grounds. Retaliatory
offenders do it because the want revenge on a past issue.
Mission-offenders are the deadliest but also most rare forms of
hate crimes. Obviously there are many different things people
can do that can be called a hate crime. I feel as if a person
commits an extreme hate crime like murder, kidnapping, or ect.
they shouldn’t be allowed back into society at all. If a person
commits a hate crime such as vandalism or intimidates a person
by saying certain things, then I think they should be given a
second chance back in society.

The courts main response to hate crime is to punish the offender
by automatically giving jail
time, but they’ve come to realize that that isn’t always the best
choice. Instead of jail time some
offenders need to go the restorative justice way, some may need
counseling, educational
programs, or even civil remedies. They want to offer other ways
rather than just prison because
they believe that prison can increase the chances for the
offender to strike again. They also
suggest that the offender meet the victim of their hate crime.
They do these face to face meetings to show the offenders that
their actions are unacceptable and they need to change.

In this article is says that there are some hate crimes that can
not only give some people many
years in prison but can also lead to receiving the death penalty.
It also talks about how the

consequences for crimes can be legally raised if further

white male and killed 49 people

it gives information on what
disorders they diagnose people who commit hate crimes with. It
also gives a little more

backup my claim for this paper
because in this article it also states that the crime that was
committed was an hate crime.
