QualitativeQuantitative Dissertation Checklist· The purpose of
Qualitative/Quantitative Dissertation Checklist
· The purpose of the Dissertation checklist is twofold:
· Students: The checklist consists of components from the rubric and provides “tips” under each of the required rubric components. It is important for students to have consistency and clarity as they compose their dissertation for the chair/committee to read.
· Reviewers: The second focus is to provide the committee with a document which includes the same expectations so the number of times a dissertation is returned is minimized. As reviewers conduct a review of a dissertation/proposal they can use the checklist to help students recognize missing components and areas for improvement.
· The following provides guidance for writing and reviewing qualitative and quantitative studies. The areas relative to a specific methods (qualitative or quantitative) are noted in the highlighted areas where applicable as follows:
Qualitative
Quantitative
Qualitative/Quantitative Comments
· All items may not be relevant to your particular study; please consult with your chair for guidance.
· The checklist items may not necessarily be in the order that works best for your dissertation. Please consult with your committee and the dissertation guide; however, the checklist should work well in the absence of other considerations.
· Instructions for Students:
· Indicate on the checklist the page number (use the actual document page number, not the MS Word pagination) where the required information is located.
· Respond to comments from the chair, committee member and/or URR in the comment history box. Do not delete previous comments(just add your response and use some means to clearly identify your remarks (use different font/bold/italics/color; not highlights as those become very difficult to read comments through)
· Note: If your chair requires you to develop a change matrix, make sure you capture the chair and/or member’s comments, the specific actions you have taken to address the comments and the page number where your chair can find the changes that you have made in your document. (Note: specific actions are the actual changes in the document and not generalized comments such as corrected, deleted or changed).
· Instructions for the Chair/Committee Member and/or URR
· Provide specific feedback in the comment history column. Do not delete previous comments - add your response and use some means to clearly identify your remarks (different font/bold/italics/color).
· If you made detailed comments on the draft (using track changes and comments), you can make reference to the draft rather than restate everything in the checklist comment history section. A way to show repetition of errors would be to attach the original review along with the current review in TaskStream or email.

English 1302 Annotated Bibliography (AB) Assignment Inst
English 1302 Annotated Bibliography (AB) Assignment
Instructor: Tureva Osburn
Email: [email protected]
Format: MLA—Times New Roman, 12-point font, 1” margins, double-space only
The AB is a list of summaries and other information. One entry follows the next.
Due Dates for Self-Review and Dropbox for AB:
Upload AB to Eduflow for a self-review by Tuesday, April 12th by 11:59pm.
Your AB for the self-review can be a draft, but it must provide at least two complete
entries with citation, annotation, analysis paragraph, and a quotation with explanation
sentence for each entry to receive the 50 points for this activity.
Dropbox for Annotated Bibliography Due by Wed., April 13th by 11:59pm
Total Points Possible: 150 points possible (50 for self-review; 100 for AB)
Number of Sources: Four (4) total sources (use your source from the Proposal Essay as
one of your four sources)
Purpose: The purpose of the Annotated Bibliography is to provide students an
opportunity to gather research and evidence for a scholarly research essay and compose a
complete entry for each source.
What is an annotated bibliography? An AB is a list of summaries (these are the
annotations) regarding the same topic along with the Works Cited entry that precedes
each annotation. Each complete annotation follows the next one to create a list.
Additionally, an AB assignment will often include some analysis, quotations, and other
information regarding each source.
Instructions: Using the Steen Library databases and other sources, you should search for
sources that will provide the foundation for your research essay.
Click on this link to access research: Steen Library Research Guides and Databases
Sources: Must use four sources for the Annotated Bibliography.
At least two sources must come from Steen Library or Library databases.
You must use your source from the Proposal Essay as one of your four
sources. In other words, you need one more source from Steen Library,
http://libguides.sfasu.edu/?b=s
but you can choose to find two more sources anywhere online or from
Steen.
Sources may include academic articles, news reports, statistical data, books, ebooks,
podcasts, online journals, art (including songs, films, streaming episodes, etc.), and
many other types of texts.
Using quality research is vital to making a successful argument; the authors and sources you
choose for the Annotated Bibliography become your team members who provide
information and expertise for the AB and the Research Essay.
Organizing the AB: Students will need to follow these directions, so each entry consists of the
following parts:
1. A Works Cited citation
2. the annotation (summary)
3. a short analysis paragraph with specific questions to answer
4. a quotation from each source in MLA format followed by an explanation
Citation for Works Cited

The Research Topic
A critical first step in any research is examining the existing body of knowledge on the research topic/idea, and it will assist the Researcher with all of the following:The subject or subject matter of a proposed studyDescribe in a few wordsThe central idea you want to learn aboutThe topic can be researched ifYou have access to participantsYou have resources to collect and analyze informationThe topic should be researched ifThe research will add to the literature about the topicScholars will be interested in the topicA study of it will advance your personal goals
The Literature ReviewShares the results of other studiesRelates the study to the larger dialogue in the literatureProvides a framework for establishing the importance of the studyProvides a benchmark for comparing the results to other findings
The Use of Literature
The use and length of the literature varies based on the forum: research proposal, dissertation or journal article. Despite this, the literature may:provide a summary of major studies on the research problemdemonstrate the writers knowledge of the topic/problem/issueintegrate what others have done and said about the topic/problem/issuemay criticize previous scholarly works on the topic/problem/issuemay allow for connections between related topicsmay elucidate the central issues in the field
Using Literature in a Qualitative Study
The Use of Literature in a Quantitative Study
In quantitative studies the literature is used deductively as it provides a framework for the research questions and hypothesisProvide direction to the research questions and hypothesesIntroduce a problemIntroduce and describe the theory that will be used Examine the usefulness of the theoryCompare results with existing literature or predictions
The Use of Literature in a Mixed Methods Study
In mixed methods studies Researchers use the literature:in either a quantitative or qualitative approachin a manner consistent with either quantitative or qualitative approachrelative to the intended audience
Irrespective of the type of study, choose one of the following types of literature reviews:

Research ProposalThe written research proposal will be created b.docx
Research Proposal
The written research proposal will be created based on a narrowly defined aspect of the topic selected in Week One. A research proposal is a detailed plan for a specific study to be conducted at a future time. It is the document which potential researchers typically submit to an institutional review board (IRB) for ethical review and approval, and/or to funding agencies to secure financial support for a research effort. Because it is a plan for research which has not yet been conducted, the Methods section should be written in the future tense and should not contain any hypothetical results. The paper must address all of the components required in the Methods section of a research proposal. The following actions must be completed.
State the research question and/or hypothesis.
Briefly compare the characteristics of the major research paradigms used in previous studies on the chosen topic. Introduce the specific approach (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods), research design, sampling strategy, data collection procedures, and data analysis techniques to be used in this study. Provide a short explanation as to why the selected procedures are more feasible than other alternatives for the research topic.
Describe any relevant variables, measures, and statistical tests.
Apply ethical principles and professional standards to the proposed psychological research. Provide an analysis of any ethical issues that may arise and explain how these issues will be resolved.
The following headings for the required sections and subsections must appear in the paper. In accordance with APA style, all references listed must be cited in the text of the paper.
Introduction
Introduce the research topic, explain why it is important, and present an appropriately and narrowly defined research question and/or hypothesis.
Literature Review
Evaluate the published research on the chosen topic including a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles. Summarize the current state of knowledge on the topic, making reference to the findings of previous research studies. Briefly mention the research methods that have previously been used to study the topic. State whether the proposed study is a replication of a previous study or a new approach employing methods that have not been used before. Be sure to properly cite all sources in APA style.
Methods
Design –
Create a feasible research design that incorporates appropriate methods to address the topic. Indicate whether the approach of the proposed study is qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. Identify the specific research design, and indicate whether it is experimental or non-experimental. Evaluate the chosen design and explain why this design is feasible and appropriate for the topic and how it will provide the information needed to answer the research question. Cite sources on research methodology to support these choices. Include a minimum of two peer-reviewed sources.

Introduction
Typically, a review of the literature is extensive as it should address all known aspects of a problem and describe how the problem has been studied in the past. For example,
What variables and questions related to the problem have already been studied and how does that to relate to the question being posed in the study you are proposing? Are the previous study findings applicable to today’s practice?
Who were the subjects in these other studies and how do they compare with your proposed subjects?
What research design, theoretical framework, data collection tool(s), statistics, etc., were used; and how do they compare to what you are proposing?
A good review of the literature lays down the proverbial breadcrumbs for future researchers to follow the rationale for how we arrived
here
from
there
. Sometimes it means we state the obvious, and other times it means we identify conflicting outcomes, outdated paradigms, gaps in practices, statistical test results to questions similar to ours, or suggest questions for future research. This assignment will give you a good understanding of how to compile the research findings needed for writing financial reports, grant applications/reports, business plans/Pro-forma, practice policies, processes, academic reports, clinical case studies, etc.
NRAO Majors:

Research ProposalThe written research proposal will be created b.docx
Research Proposal
The written research proposal will be created based on a narrowly defined aspect of the topic selected in Week One. A research proposal is a detailed plan for a specific study to be conducted at a future time. It is the document which potential researchers typically submit to an institutional review board (IRB) for ethical review and approval, and/or to funding agencies to secure financial support for a research effort. Because it is a plan for research which has not yet been conducted, the Methods section should be written in the future tense and should not contain any hypothetical results. The paper must address all of the components required in the Methods section of a research proposal. The following actions must be completed.
State the research question and/or hypothesis.
Briefly compare the characteristics of the major research paradigms used in previous studies on the chosen topic. Introduce the specific approach (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods), research design, sampling strategy, data collection procedures, and data analysis techniques to be used in this study. Provide a short explanation as to why the selected procedures are more feasible than other alternatives for the research topic.
Describe any relevant variables, measures, and statistical tests.
Apply ethical principles and professional standards to the proposed psychological research. Provide an analysis of any ethical issues that may arise and explain how these issues will be resolved.
The following headings for the required sections and subsections must appear in the paper. In accordance with APA style, all references listed must be cited in the text of the paper.
Introduction
Introduce the research topic, explain why it is important, and present an appropriately and narrowly defined research question and/or hypothesis.
Literature Review
Evaluate the published research on the chosen topic including a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles. Summarize the current state of knowledge on the topic, making reference to the findings of previous research studies. Briefly mention the research methods that have previously been used to study the topic. State whether the proposed study is a replication of a previous study or a new approach employing methods that have not been used before. Be sure to properly cite all sources in APA style.
Methods
Design –
Create a feasible research design that incorporates appropriate methods to address the topic. Indicate whether the approach of the proposed study is qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. Identify the specific research design, and indicate whether it is experimental or non-experimental. Evaluate the chosen design and explain why this design is feasible and appropriate for the topic and how it will provide the information needed to answer the research question. Cite sources on research methodology to support these choices. Include a minimum of two peer-reviewed sources.
Participants –
Identify and.
IntroductionThe methodology of a study refers to the procedure.docx
Introduction
The methodology of a study refers to the procedures that are followed in order to collect and analyze data. Qualitative and quantitative are two broad categories of research methods (Erford, 2015, p. 17). Distinguishing between them is a theme that runs throughout this course. This unit discusses several of the methodological issues, or steps, to be addressed when planning a study. Some of these issues include:
What kind of data to collect (such as participants' perceptions).
How to best collect the data (for example, in-depth semi-structured interviews).
How to select participants.
What kinds of treatments or conditions they will experience.
How to analyze the data.
These decisions determine the research design. "Research designs are types of inquiry within qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods approaches that provide specific direction for procedures in a research design" (Creswell, 2014, p. 12).
Validity, Credibility, and Reliability
Scholar-practitioners are concerned with the overall validity and trustworthiness of the research they read. In quantitative studies, internal validity refers to the degree to which one can infer cause and effect relationships between the independent and dependent variables, while external validity relates to the generalizability of findings. Both are important issues. In qualitative studies, the term validity is less frequently used when discussing the quality or trustworthiness of the research. Rather, the critical consumer of qualitative research is concerned with credibility, dependability, confirmability, verification, and transferability. This unit provides an introduction to methodological issues in counseling research. These issues will be revisited when you study specific research designs. As you develop your pre-proposal assignment, you will consider methodological issues as they apply to the research design you have chosen.
Reviewing the Literature
In this unit, you will continue locating current empirical articles, which will be used to write the literature review section of your pre-proposal assignment. An annotated bibliography is a tool for organizing the main ideas of the sources you have read. A detailed annotated bibliography can contribute greatly to the ease of writing a literature review. A well-written literature review is a coherent narrative that provides readers with the status of the knowledge base as it relates to your topic. This works best when literature reviews are organized by main ideas. The writer should not present a laundry list of article summaries with no connections being made among them. Instead, think of the literature review as telling the story of your topic, using the studies as support. There will probably be subheadings in the literature review section to indicate the main ideas for the reader. When you write your literature review, think of the main ideas that you want to get across and organize your writing around them.

Title of Paper
Introduction to topic that gives the audience and idea of what you will be discussing in the paper. This should be a brief paragraph that provides an overview of the key points that will be addressed. This section should be concluded with a purpose statement. The purpose of this paper is …consider the intent of the application and list all requirements.
Research Methodologies
Discuss the attributes of quantitative and qualitative research methods and compare/contrast the type of information you can obtain from both types of research. Make sure you are referencing the course learning materials as well as some external references. You should have a minimum of three course learning resource references and two credible external references. Remember that web sites are only considered credible if they end in .gov, .edu, or .org.
Advantages and Disadvantages
Discuss the reality that there are advantages and disadvantages to both types of research.
Quantitative Research
Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of quantitative research. When is it helpful and when is it not helpful. Consider things like type of information that you are seeking, ethics, time needed to complete, etc.
Qualitative Research
Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of quantitative research. When is it helpful and when is it not helpful. Consider things like type of information that you are seeking, ethics, time needed to complete, etc. Also, make sure you address the argument that qualitative research is not real science. Is this true? Why or why not? What value does qualitative research have in nursing practice?
Summary
Write a one paragraph summary of the main points of the paper. This is not an area for adding new information. That should be in the body of your paper. Do not forget to appropriately cite in references in this section too. This is a good place to pull in your course learning resources again.

Major Assessment 4 Cultural Bias Investigation Most educators agree.docx
Major Assessment 4: Cultural Bias Investigation Most educators agree that major influences on the achievement of students are the activities and support materials; environment; and types of expectations, interactions, and behaviors to which they are exposed. Therefore, an understanding of bias and skill in discerning subtle and/or overt bias in curriculum, instruction, and assessment are extremely important. Conduct a cultural bias investigation to examine a particular textbook with which you are familiar. Your investigation will focus on identifying instructional and assessment practices that reflect cultural bias and inhibit learning. The investigation will include reflection on the impact of these practices on student learning. Procedure 1. Make sure you are familiar with the key authors and experts described in the chapters in this section. Review at least five research-based sources that clarify the research to expand your understanding of the influence of culture on teaching and learning and the presence of bias in curriculum, instruction, and assessment. 2. Select and analyze a textbook with which you are familiar. Use the Sadkers’ (Sadker & Zittleman, 2012) list of the seven prevalent forms of bias in the curriculum to conduct a critical analysis of the textbook. Look at such aspects as pictures, names of people, the relative marginalization or integration of groups of people throughout the text, examples used, and so on. Summarize and present your data in displays (charts, tables, etc.). 3. Include in a written report the following: Introduction (text selected; rationale for selection; description of the text and context in which it is used) Review of the research on the influence of culture in teaching and learning and bias in the curriculum Summary of your findings (data tables and appropriate narratives) Discussion of the findings, including: { resonance with the research on bias { your understanding of bias and the challenges it poses to teaching and learning { the implications of your findings for teaching and learning Relate your discussion of the findings to class discussions and readings of the philosophy of education and purposes of curriculum. Be sure to adhere to APA guidelines in writing the final paper. Use the following tables to display your data: SECTION IV ASSESSMENT SKILLS Table 2: Analysis of Four Chapters for Frequency of Mention of Each Search Category Whites/Caucasians (male/female) African Americans (male/female) Hispanics/Latinos/Latinas (male/female) Native Americans (male/female) Asian Americans (male/female) Disability and deaf culture Gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered persons (male/female) Religious groups Language groups Other Example Table 2 Format: Textbook Chapter Analysis Search category 1 # mentions/ # pages 2 # mentions/ # pages 3 # mentions/ # pages 4 # mentions/ # pages Total # mentions/ # pages White males White females African Americans Hispanics/Latinos/Latinas Table 3.

Introduction
Typically, a review of the literature is extensive as it should address all known aspects of a problem and describe how the problem has been studied in the past. For example,
What variables and questions related to the problem have already been studied and how does that to relate to the question being posed in the study you are proposing? Are the previous study findings applicable to today’s practice?
Who were the subjects in these other studies and how do they compare with your proposed subjects?
What research design, theoretical framework, data collection tool(s), statistics, etc., were used; and how do they compare to what you are proposing?
A good review of the literature lays down the proverbial breadcrumbs for future researchers to follow the rationale for how we arrived
here
from
there
. Sometimes it means we state the obvious, and other times it means we identify conflicting outcomes, outdated paradigms, gaps in practices, statistical test results to questions similar to ours, or suggest questions for future research. This assignment will give you a good understanding of how to compile the research findings needed for writing financial reports, grant applications/reports, business plans/Pro-forma, practice policies, processes, academic reports, clinical case studies, etc.
NRAO Majors:
The review you write for this assignment should be a good start for your scholarly project due in your final MSN course. You and your advisor will work together to complete this requirement.
Upon successful completion of the Literature Review assignment you should be able to:
Address an identified problem through a systematic synthesized review of the literature.

Research ProposalThe written research proposal will be created b.docx
Research Proposal
The written research proposal will be created based on a narrowly defined aspect of the topic selected in Week One. A research proposal is a detailed plan for a specific study to be conducted at a future time. It is the document which potential researchers typically submit to an institutional review board (IRB) for ethical review and approval, and/or to funding agencies to secure financial support for a research effort. Because it is a plan for research which has not yet been conducted, the Methods section should be written in the future tense and should not contain any hypothetical results. The paper must address all of the components required in the Methods section of a research proposal. The following actions must be completed.
State the research question and/or hypothesis.
Briefly compare the characteristics of the major research paradigms used in previous studies on the chosen topic. Introduce the specific approach (qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods), research design, sampling strategy, data collection procedures, and data analysis techniques to be used in this study. Provide a short explanation as to why the selected procedures are more feasible than other alternatives for the research topic.
Describe any relevant variables, measures, and statistical tests.
Apply ethical principles and professional standards to the proposed psychological research. Provide an analysis of any ethical issues that may arise and explain how these issues will be resolved.
The following headings for the required sections and subsections must appear in the paper. In accordance with APA style, all references listed must be cited in the text of the paper.
Introduction
Introduce the research topic, explain why it is important, and present an appropriately and narrowly defined research question and/or hypothesis.
Literature Review
Evaluate the published research on the chosen topic including a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles. Summarize the current state of knowledge on the topic, making reference to the findings of previous research studies. Briefly mention the research methods that have previously been used to study the topic. State whether the proposed study is a replication of a previous study or a new approach employing methods that have not been used before. Be sure to properly cite all sources in APA style.
Methods
Design –
Create a feasible research design that incorporates appropriate methods to address the topic. Indicate whether the approach of the proposed study is qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. Identify the specific research design, and indicate whether it is experimental or non-experimental. Evaluate the chosen design and explain why this design is feasible and appropriate for the topic and how it will provide the information needed to answer the research question. Cite sources on research methodology to support these choices. Include a minimum of two peer-reviewed sources.

IntroductionThe methodology of a study refers to the procedure.docx
Introduction
The methodology of a study refers to the procedures that are followed in order to collect and analyze data. Qualitative and quantitative are two broad categories of research methods (Erford, 2015, p. 17). Distinguishing between them is a theme that runs throughout this course. This unit discusses several of the methodological issues, or steps, to be addressed when planning a study. Some of these issues include:
What kind of data to collect (such as participants' perceptions).
How to best collect the data (for example, in-depth semi-structured interviews).
How to select participants.
What kinds of treatments or conditions they will experience.
How to analyze the data.
These decisions determine the research design. "Research designs are types of inquiry within qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods approaches that provide specific direction for procedures in a research design" (Creswell, 2014, p. 12).
Validity, Credibility, and Reliability
Scholar-practitioners are concerned with the overall validity and trustworthiness of the research they read. In quantitative studies, internal validity refers to the degree to which one can infer cause and effect relationships between the independent and dependent variables, while external validity relates to the generalizability of findings. Both are important issues. In qualitative studies, the term validity is less frequently used when discussing the quality or trustworthiness of the research. Rather, the critical consumer of qualitative research is concerned with credibility, dependability, confirmability, verification, and transferability. This unit provides an introduction to methodological issues in counseling research. These issues will be revisited when you study specific research designs. As you develop your pre-proposal assignment, you will consider methodological issues as they apply to the research design you have chosen.
Reviewing the Literature
In this unit, you will continue locating current empirical articles, which will be used to write the literature review section of your pre-proposal assignment. An annotated bibliography is a tool for organizing the main ideas of the sources you have read. A detailed annotated bibliography can contribute greatly to the ease of writing a literature review. A well-written literature review is a coherent narrative that provides readers with the status of the knowledge base as it relates to your topic. This works best when literature reviews are organized by main ideas. The writer should not present a laundry list of article summaries with no connections being made among them. Instead, think of the literature review as telling the story of your topic, using the studies as support. There will probably be subheadings in the literature review section to indicate the main ideas for the reader. When you write your literature review, think of the main ideas that you want to get across and organize your writing around them.

Major Assessment 4 Cultural Bias Investigation Most educators agree.docx
Major Assessment 4: Cultural Bias Investigation Most educators agree that major influences on the achievement of students are the activities and support materials; environment; and types of expectations, interactions, and behaviors to which they are exposed. Therefore, an understanding of bias and skill in discerning subtle and/or overt bias in curriculum, instruction, and assessment are extremely important. Conduct a cultural bias investigation to examine a particular textbook with which you are familiar. Your investigation will focus on identifying instructional and assessment practices that reflect cultural bias and inhibit learning. The investigation will include reflection on the impact of these practices on student learning. Procedure 1. Make sure you are familiar with the key authors and experts described in the chapters in this section. Review at least five research-based sources that clarify the research to expand your understanding of the influence of culture on teaching and learning and the presence of bias in curriculum, instruction, and assessment. 2. Select and analyze a textbook with which you are familiar. Use the Sadkers’ (Sadker & Zittleman, 2012) list of the seven prevalent forms of bias in the curriculum to conduct a critical analysis of the textbook. Look at such aspects as pictures, names of people, the relative marginalization or integration of groups of people throughout the text, examples used, and so on. Summarize and present your data in displays (charts, tables, etc.). 3. Include in a written report the following: Introduction (text selected; rationale for selection; description of the text and context in which it is used) Review of the research on the influence of culture in teaching and learning and bias in the curriculum Summary of your findings (data tables and appropriate narratives) Discussion of the findings, including: { resonance with the research on bias { your understanding of bias and the challenges it poses to teaching and learning { the implications of your findings for teaching and learning Relate your discussion of the findings to class discussions and readings of the philosophy of education and purposes of curriculum. Be sure to adhere to APA guidelines in writing the final paper. Use the following tables to display your data: SECTION IV ASSESSMENT SKILLS Table 2: Analysis of Four Chapters for Frequency of Mention of Each Search Category Whites/Caucasians (male/female) African Americans (male/female) Hispanics/Latinos/Latinas (male/female) Native Americans (male/female) Asian Americans (male/female) Disability and deaf culture Gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered persons (male/female) Religious groups Language groups Other Example Table 2 Format: Textbook Chapter Analysis Search category 1 # mentions/ # pages 2 # mentions/ # pages 3 # mentions/ # pages 4 # mentions/ # pages Total # mentions/ # pages White males White females African Americans Hispanics/Latinos/Latinas Table 3.

15-2aHow Identity Theft Occurs
Perpetrators of identity theft follow a common pattern after they have stolen a victim’s identity. To help you understand this process, we have created the “identity theft cycle.” Although some fraudsters perpetrate their frauds in slightly different ways, most generally follow the stages in the cycle shown in Figure 15.1.
Stage 1. Discovery
1. Perpetrators gain information.
2. Perpetrators verify information.
Stage 2. Action
1. Perpetrators accumulate documentation.
2. Perpetrators conceive cover-up or concealment actions.
Stage 3. Trial
1. First dimensional actions—Small thefts to test the stolen information.
2. Second dimensional actions—Larger thefts, often involving personal interaction, without much chance of getting caught.
3. Third dimensional actions—Largest thefts committed after perpetrators have confidence that their schemes are working.
Figure 15.1The Identity Theft Cycle
Stage 1: Discovery
The discovery stage involves two phases: information gathering and information verification. This is the first step in the identity theft cycle because all other actions the perpetrator takes depend upon the accuracy and effectiveness of the discovery stage. A powerful discovery stage constitutes a solid foundation for the perpetrator to commit identity theft. The smarter the perpetrator, the better the discovery foundation will be.
During the gaining information phase, fraudsters do all they can to gather a victim’s information. Examples of discovery techniques include such information-gathering techniques as searching trash, searching someone’s home or computer, stealing mail, phishing, breaking into cars or homes, scanning credit card information, or using other means whereby a perpetrator gathers information about a victim.
During the information verification phase, a fraudster uses various means to verify the information already gathered. Examples include telephone scams, where perpetrators call the victim and act as a representative of a business to verify the information gathered (this is known as pretexting), and trash searches (when another means was used to gather the original information). Although some fraudsters may not initially go through the information verification process, they will eventually use information verification procedures at some point during the scam. The scams of perpetrators who don’t verify stolen information are usually shorter and easier to catch than scams of perpetrators who verify stolen information.
Step 2: Action
The action stage is the second phase of the identity theft cycle. It involves two activities: accumulating documentation and devising cover-up or concealment actions.
Accumulating documentation refers to the process perpetrators use to obtain needed tools to defraud the victim. For example, using the information already obtained, perpetrators may apply for a bogus credit card, fake check, or driver’s license in the victim’s name. Although the perpetra.

M4.3 Case StudyCase Study ExampleJennifer S. is an Army veter.docx
M4.3 Case Study
Case Study Example:
Jennifer S. is an Army veteran of Operation Freedom. Since returning home, Jennifer has suffered from recurrent headaches, ringing in her ears, difficulty focusing, and dizziness. In addition, soon after returning home, she began to experience moments of panic when in open spaces; flashbacks reliving the blast and the death of fellow soldiers; feelings of emotional numbness and depression; and being easily startled. She was placed on medical leave and diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and is currently being seen by a psychiatrist at the VA hospital. Her husband understands the concept of PTSD but is unprepared to handle his wife’s deteriorating condition.
Recently, Jennifer was seen at the local urgent care center for recurrent headaches, complaints of shortness of breath, and chest pain. Her husband informed the urgent care nurse that for the past four weeks his wife has been unable to care for the children, remains in bed, complaining of headaches, and is very ‘jumpy’.
The nurse assesses Jennifer knowing that returning veterans with PTSD and their families face an array of challenges, with implications for the veterans, their partners, and their children. The nurse considers referring them to: a social worker specializing in crisis intervention for veterans, a family counselor, the school nurse, a family health care practitioner.
Key elements of the nurse’s assessment are as follows:
Jennifer is 33 year-old woman who enlisted in Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) in college, where she majored in Journalism. Upon graduation, she obtained a position in the Army as public affairs broadcast specialist. Her first assignment was at a base in upstate New York. Three years ago, she was relocated to the St. Louis, Missouri area. Jennifer has been married to her husband, Zane, for 14 years and they have two children ages six and ten. Cameron is ten years-old and entering middle school and Zeta is six years-old and in kindergarten. Zane works as a civil engineer in the St. Louis area. Both Jennifer and Zane come from large families who reside in the Boston area. Jennifer’s family is Portuguese and Zane's is Irish, they were both raised Catholic. While Jennifer was deployed, her mother moved in with Zane and the children to provide additional support and child care.
One year ago, Jennifer was deployed to Afghanistan on a six month assignment to report on the events of the war: she thought she had a ‘safe’ assignment. While working on a story in the field an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) exploded near her: two soldiers and four citizens were killed including one child. Although she was unhurt, she was unable to sleep after this event. Upon returning stateside, she began experiencing vivid nightmares, sleeplessness, survivor guilt, and depression. She was recently diagnosed with PTSD and is attempting to find a support group and counseling. Unfortunately, she has found that treatment for fe.

Major Assignment - Learning NarrativeWrite a learning narr.docx
Major Assignment - Learning Narrative
Write a
learning narrative
that narrates a specific event from your life that helped you learn something new about yourself or others. Your narrative should focus on a specific event in a narrow timeframe, using vivid description, narration, detail, and dialogue to organize your memories and make the significance of what happened clear to an audience.
Assignment
A
narrative
is a specific type of essay that uses stories of particular moments to help audiences perceive, understand, and "appreciate the value of an idea" (
The Composition of Everyday Life
, Ch. 1, p. 19).
For this essay, you will write a
learning narrative
, a specific type of narrative that focuses on showing how a particular moment from your memory changed how you thought about yourself or others. The learning narrative requires you to organize your memories and decide which details best show an audience how the events from your past affected you. A learning narrative is broader than a "literacy narrative": while you can write about how language or education changed your life, you also can write about other things you learned through music, sports, business, or in any other relevant setting.
In order to write a strong, focused narrative, you will need to be attentive to the following expectations for the essay:
Find the significance:
Think of how your narrative connects your memories to feelings / concepts others have experienced
Tell a particular story:
Like Keller and Zimmer, choose a single moment or event that can reflect your process of learning
Choose relevant details:
Include only those details that contribute to the significance
Narrate and describe:
Add emotional weight and interest to your story by narrating events with dialogue, action, description, and sensory experiences
Caution
: Please keep in mind that writing in this class is public, and anything you write about yourself may be shared with other students and instructors. Please only write about details that you are comfortable making public within our classroom community. You should know that your teacher is required by the State of Texas

Things in the Form o f
a Prayer in the Form
o f a Wail
H e r e ’s t h e j o u r n e y i n m i n i a t u r e .Oscar Hammerstein, not long before stomach cancer kills him,
writes the song as a duet between Marie and the Mother Abbess, for a
scene in which the plucky nun is told she’s being booted from the con
vent since she privileges melody over God. Marie doesn’t want to serve
as governess for the Von Trapp clan, but she’s already shown her hand
by giving rapturous voice to a song that summons the bliss and solace
o f secular joys. She needs to go. Although the film version of The Sound
of Music will shift “My Favorite Things” to the thunderstorm scene in
which Marie offers up raindrops on roses and warm woolen mittens as
balm to the terrified kids, John Coltrane’s classic jazz cover much more
radically revamps the Broadway hit, transfiguring mere catchiness into
complex modalities. Yet if this were simply a one-off recording, there
wouldn’t be much to say: turning cornball consolation into jazz isn’t
news. Instead, Coltrane can’t relinquish it. Instead, even throughout all
his late music-as-prayer work, he never lets go of the show tune.
“We played it every night for five years,” drummer Elvin Jones re
membered. “We played it every night like there would be no tomorrow.
Like it would be the last time we played it.” His son, Ravi Coltrane,
calculates that his father’s band played “My Favorite Things” thousands
o f times as a regular fixture in the set: “They worked a lo t— forty-five
weeks a year, six nights a week, three sets, sometimes even four sets on
the weekend. You’re talking about getting the blade as sharp as can be.”
But of all the blades to w het— especially one bedecked with ponies
and kittens— why that song in particular?
M y f i r s t e n c o u n t e r with Coltrane’s late free jazz work came from
an unlikely source: the writings o f cult rock critic Lester Bangs. At the age
o f fourteen, I stumbled upon a copy of his collected writings— Psychotic
632
Reactions and Carburetor Dung— and proceeded to treat it as less an assem
blage o f essays and music reviews than a checklist of writers and albums I
was obliged to track down if I might ever break free from my Ohio sub
urbs. The Velvet Underground, William Burroughs, Iggy and the Stooges’
Metallic K.O. (a live album in which you can hear beer bottles shattering
against guitar strings), and even Baudelaire all first came tumbling my
way through the same careening chute of Bangs’s writing. His claim that
Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks was fueled by many lifetimes o f wisdom
lured me into transcribing the entirety o f the album’s lyrics in my algebra
notebook, and the visible bottom edge of an Undertones poster in his
author photograph led me, without having heard a note o f the band’s
music, to bike six miles to Spin More records in Kent on a quest to
cobble together their discography.

A Cooperative Strategy for
21st Century Seapower
DRAFT/PRE-DECISIONAL - NOT FOR DISSEMINATION - 02 FEB
A COOPERATIVE STRATEGY FOR 21ST CENTURY SEAPOWER, MARCH 2015 [i]
America’s Sea Services—the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard—uniquely provide presence around the globe. During peacetime and times of conflict, across the full spectrum—from
supporting an ally with humanitarian assistance or disaster relief to
deterring or defeating an adversary in kinetic action—Sailors, Marines,
and Coast Guardsmen are deployed at sea and in far-flung posts to be
wherever we are needed, when we are needed. Coming from the sea, we
get there sooner, stay there longer, bring everything we need with us,
and we don’t have to ask anyone’s permission.
Our founders recognized the United States as a maritime nation and
the importance of maritime forces, including in our Constitution the re-
quirement that Congress “maintain a Navy.” In today’s dynamic security
environment, with multiple challenges from state and non-state actors
that are often fed by social disorder, political upheaval, and technological
advancements, that requirement is even more prescient.
The United States Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard are our
Nation’s first line of defense, often far from our shores. As such, main-
taining America’s leadership role in the world requires our Nation’s Sea
Services to return to our maritime strategy on occasion and reassess
our approach to shifting relationships and global responsibilities. This
necessary review has affirmed our focus on providing presence around
the world in order to ensure stability, build on our relationships with allies
and partners, prevent wars, and provide our Nation’s leaders with options
in times of crisis. It has confirmed our continued commitment to main-
tain the combat power necessary to deter potential adversaries and to
fight and win when required.
Our responsibility to the American people dictates an efficient use of
our fiscal resources and an approach that adapts to the evolving security
environment. The adjustments made in this document do just that. Look-
ing at how we support our people, build the right platforms, power them
to achieve efficient global capability, and develop critical partnerships
will be central to its successful execution and to providing that unique
capability: presence.
PREFACE
[ii] Forward ✦ Engaged ✦ Ready
Seapower has been and will continue to be the critical foundation of
national power and prosperity and international prestige for the United
States of America. Our Sea Services will integrate with the rest of our
national efforts, and those of our friends and allies. This revision to A
Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower builds on the heritage
and complementary capabilities of the Navy-Marine Corps-Coast Guard
team to advan.

Abstract
Background: Breast cancer-related arm lymphedema is a serious complication that can
adversely affect quality of life. Identifying risk factors that contribute to the development of
lymphedema is vital for identifying avenues for prevention. The aim of this study was to examine
the association between the development of arm lymphedema and both treatment and personal
(e.g., obesity) risk factors.
Methods: Women diagnosed with breast cancer in Iowa during 2004 and followed through 2010,
who met eligibility criteria, were asked to complete a short computer assisted telephone interview
about chronic conditions, arm activities, demographics, and lymphedema status. Lymphedema was
characterized by a reported physician-diagnosis, a difference between arms in the circumference
(> 2cm), or the presence of multiple self-reported arm symptoms (at least two of five major arm
symptoms, and at least four total arm symptoms). Relative risks (RR) were estimated using
logistic regression.
Results: Arm lymphedema was identified in 102 of 522 participants (19.5%). Participants treated
by both axillary dissection and radiation therapy were more likely to have arm lymphedema than
treated by either alone. Women with advanced cancer stage, positive nodes, and larger tumors
along with a body mass index > 40 were also more likely to develop lymphedema. Arm activity
level was not associated with lymphedema.

Lukas Nelson and his wife Anne and their three daughters had been living in their house for over five years when they decided it was time to make some modest improvements. One area they both agreed needed an upgrade was the bath tub. Their current house had one standard shower bathtub combination. Lukas was 6 feet four, and could barely squeeze into it. In fact, he had taken only one bath since they moved in. He and Anne both missed soaking in the older, deep bath tubs they enjoyed when they lived back East.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
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

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

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.
