Chapter 1 Introduction
Background/Introduction
In this section, present enough information about the proposed work such that the reader understands the general context or setting. It is also helpful to include a summary of how the rest of this document is organized.
Problem Statement
In this section, present a concise statement of a research-worthy problem addressed (i.e., why the work should be undertaken – don’t say required for the class). Follow the statement of the problem with a well-supported discussion of its scope and nature. The discussion of the problem should include: what the problem is, why it is a problem, how the problem evolved or developed, and the issues and events leading to the problem.
Goal
Next, include a concise definition of the goal of the work (i.e., what the work will accomplish). Aim to define a goal that is measurable.
Research Questions
Research questions are developed to help guide the authors through the literature for a given problem area. What were the open-ended questions asked and why did the student find (or not find) them adequate.
Relevance and Significance
The student should consider the following questions as they read through an article stating how the author(s) supported, or left unsupported the evidence, relevance, and significance of their research literature:
Why is there a problem? What groups or individuals are affected?
How far-ranging is the problem and how great is its impact? What’s the benefit of solving the problem?
What has been tried without success to correct the situation? Why weren’t those attempts successful? What are the consequences of not solving the problem?
How does the goal of the study address the research problem and how will the proposed study offer promise as a resolution to the problem?
How will the research add to the knowledge base?
What is the potential for generalization of the results?
What is the potential for original work?
Barriers and Issues
In these paragraphs, identify how the problem is inherently difficult to solve. How did the solution the author(s) propose address the difficulties?
Chapter 2 Literature Review
In this section, it is important to clearly identify the major areas on which the student will need to focus the student research in order to build a solid foundation for the study in the existing body of knowledge. The literature review is the presentation of quality literature in a particular field that serves as the foundation and justification for the research problem, research questions or hypothesis, and methodology. The student will develop a more comprehensive review of the literature as part of the research.
Chapter 3 Approach/Methodology
This chapter includes a summary of how the student are going to proceed with the evaluation of the problem statement and associated research question(s). Given the short time of this course, a compare / contrast or advantage / disadvantage analysis is recommended that

Comprehensive Guide to Crafting Engaging Case Studies: A Step-by-Step ApproachLi-Hsin Chen
The presentation on case study writing tips by Dr. Li-Hsin Chen offers comprehensive guidance on creating effective case studies. It begins by defining a case study as a detailed investigation into a particular management problem, offering solutions through a narrative form to encourage student involvement. It covers different types of case studies, such as problem-oriented and cumulative, and outlines the typical format including sections like Executive Summary, Background, Case Evaluation, Proposed Solutions, and Conclusion. Further, it provides a step-by-step guide on conducting research, setting objectives, analyzing problems, and proposing solutions, emphasizing the importance of integrating theory with practical examples to develop critical-thinking skills.
Part 3 (Due 1/19/15)
To begin, work through the reference list that was created in the "Section B: Problem Description" assignment in Module 2. Appraise each resource using the "Rapid Critical Appraisal Checklists," available in the textbook appendix or electronically on the textbook student resource CD-ROM. The specific checklist you use will be determined by the type of evidence within the resource.
Develop a research table to organize and summarize the research studies. Using a summary table allows you to be more concise in your narrative description. Only research studies used to support your intervention are summarized in this table. Refer to the "Evaluation Table Template," available in the textbook appendix. Use the "Evaluation Table Template" as an adaptable template.
Write a narrative of 750-1,000 words (not including the title page and references) that presents the research support for the projects problem and proposed solution. Make sure to do the following:
1) Include a description of the search method (e.g., databases, keywords, criteria for inclusion and exclusion, and number of studies that fit your criteria).
2) Summarize all of the research studies used as evidence. The essential components of each study need to be described so that readers can evaluate its scientific merit, including study strengths and limitations.
3) Incorporate a description of the validity of the internal and external research.
It is essential to make sure that the research support for the proposed solution is sufficient, compelling, relevant, and from peer-reviewed professional journal articles.
Although you will not be submitting the checklist information or the evaluation table you design in Module 3 with the narrative, the checklist information and evaluation table should be placed in the appendices for the final paper.
Prepare this assignment according to the APA guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.
Refer to "NUR 699 Literature Support Holistic Assessment."
Upon receiving feedback from the instructor, refine Section C: Literature Support for your final submission. This will be a continuous process throughout the course for each section.

Research papers are intended to demonstrate a student’s academic knowledge of a subject. When studying at higher levels of school and throughout college, you will likely be asked to prepare research papers. A research paper can be used for exploring and identifying scientific, technical and social issues. If it's your first time writing a research paper, it may seem daunting, but with good organization and focus of mind, you can make the process easier on yourself. Writing a research paper involves four main stages: choosing a topic, researching your topic, making an outline, and doing the actual writing. The paper won't write itself, but by planning and preparing well, the writing practically falls into place. Also, try to avoid plagiarism.
· Abstract - An abstract is a brief summary of a research article, thesis, review, conference proceeding, or any in-depth analysis of a particular subject and is often used to help the reader quickly ascertain the paper's purpose.
· Background of the Problem - Background information identifies and describes the history and nature of a well-defined research problem with reference to the existing literature. The background information should indicate the root of the problem being studied, appropriate context of the problem in relation to theory, research, and/or practice, its scope, and the extent to which previous studies have successfully investigated the problem, noting, in particular, where gaps exist that your study attempts to address.
· Problem Statement - A problem statement is a clear concise description of the issue(s) that need(s) to be addressed by a problem-solving team. It is used to center and focus the team at the beginning, keep the team on track during the effort, and is used to validate that the effort delivered an outcome that solves the problem statement
· Purpose Statement - A purpose statement is a declarative sentence which summarizes the specific topic and goals of a document. It is typically included in the introduction to give the reader an accurate, concrete understanding what the document will cover and what he/she can gain from reading it. To be effective, a statement of purpose should be:
· Nature of the Study - In modern science, all findings are usually required by the research community to be backed up by sound statistical evidence. The target audience... The nature of a study in social sciences research may refer to the statistical design of the study
· Research Question - A research question is the fundamental core of a research project, study, or review of literature. It focuses the study, determines the methodology, and guides all stages of inquiry, analysis, and reporting
· Interview Questions
· Assumptions, Limitations, and Delimitations –
· Limitations are influences that the researcher cannot con ...

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

non-repetitive
not explicitly provide reference to the
research design
What are the standards in writing the research
title?
Framing
the Title
4. 1] Keep it simple, brief and attractive: The primary function of a
title is to provide a precise summary of the paper’s content. So
keep the title brief and clear. Use active verbs instead of complex
noun-based phrases, and avoid unnecessary details. Moreover, a
good title for a research paper is typically around 10 to 12 words
long. A lengthy title may seem unfocused and take the readers’
attention away from an important point.
Avoid: Drug XYZ has an effect of muscular contraction for an hour in
snails of Achatina fulcia species
Better: Drug XYZ induces muscular contraction in Achatina fulcia snails
WRITES A RESEARCH TITLE
5. 2] Use appropriate descriptive words: A good research paper title
should contain key words used in the manuscript and should define
the nature of the study. Think about terms people would use to
search for your study and include them in your title.
Avoid: Effects of drug A on schizophrenia patients: study of a
multicenter mixed group
Better: Psychosocial effects of drug A on schizophrenia patients: a
multicenter randomized controlled trial
6. 3] Avoid abbreviations and jargon: Known abbreviations
such as AIDS, DSWD, 4Ps, and so on can be used in the
title. However, other lesser-known or specific
abbreviations and jargon that would not be immediately
familiar to the readers should be left out.
7. In writing this section,
Introduce and briefly define the variables under study
cite the most important study or related literature
be consistent with terms used
ensure that paragraphs summarize unresolved issues,
conflicting findings, social concerns, or educational,
national, or international issues.

10. Guidelines in Formulating a Research Problem and
Research Questions:
1. Formulate a research problem that is researchable ; meaning to empirical
investigations.
2. See to it that you state your quantitative research problem clearly,
concisely and possibly if under APA referencing style, not beyond 12
words.
3. Have your research problem focus on a general understanding of your
research topic.
4. Construct a research problem that mirrors the importance of carrying out
the research for finding answers or solutions to a problem
11. 5. Let your quantitative research problem state the variables and
their relationships with one another.
6. Construct an introductory statement to present your research
problem, which is the main problem of your research.
7. State your research questions or sub-problems, not in the form of
yes-or-no questions, but in informative questions.
8. Express your research problems and research questions wither in
an interrogative or declarative manner, but some research books
say that the former is more effective than the latter form. (Babbie
2013; Punch 2014; Walliman 2014)
12. CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD RESEARCH QUESTIONS:
1. Focuses on only 2 or 3 variables.
2. Is defined with respect to current knowledge.
3. Can be investigated within available time/resources/ethical
constraints.
4. Can use comparative terms (e.g. “faster”, “higher”, “improved”)
5. Must use clear concepts.
6. Include cause and effect relationships
13. Interrogative Statements:
1. What is an English grammar
textbooks?
2. What is communicative
competence?
Declarative Statements:
1. To define a grammar textbook
2. To explain the meaning of

Likewise, this study aims at finding answers to the following
specific objectives:
15. In writing this section,
In paragraph form, cite beneficiaries (e.g., teachers,
teacher trainers, educators; curriculum developers,
textbook writers; officials of school, division, region,
central office; policy makers) of results of study.
For each beneficiary group, specifically describe how it
will benefit from the findings.
No need to cite students: understood to benefit from
research; not in a position to implement
recommendations
Determines the audience who will benefit from a
study of the problem and explains how exactly will
the results be significant to them.
Significance
of the Study
16. In writing this section,
cite data collection (period and school year);
identify schools involved, number of classes, their
grade/year level, number of participants (or respondents,
subjects), and topics of lessons covered (if applicable).
state inadequate measures of variables, loss or lack of
participants, small sample sizes, errors in measurement,
and other factors typically related to data collection and
analysis.
This presents the coverage of the research in terms of
location, time, respondents, etc., and the potential
weaknesses or problems with the study identified
by the researcher.
Scope and
Delimitation
17. Example:
”The main focus of this project was the design of an efficient
Energy Recovery System of Seawater Reverse Osmosis Plant. The
system will be using pressure technology by application of
pressure exchanger as an energy recovery device. Pressure
exchanger transfer pressure from a high pressure stream to slow
pressure stream in a ceramic motor. The proposed system is
limited only in reducing high power consumption of the high
pressure pump. The project can be used in all existing Seawater
Reverse Osmosis Plant in the Philippines. Some calculations,
assumptions, and selections were made as a consideration of a
proper and realistic design.”
