Once you enter “soil” in the search engine, you will see more specific categories to search if “soil” is too broad for youMake sure to use Google Scholar as your search engine so that it filters through peer-reviewed sources.Watch this video to get an idea of how to use Google Scholar.Select and summarize one or more of the studies.Make sure to maintain your citations (watch the video in 3b if you aren’t sure how to do this).Research peer reviewed studies that have been conducted on ONE of the soil characteristics that we will analyze in this experiment. You may choose from the following:Soil structureSoil pHSoil potassiumSoil phosphorusSoil nitrogenSelect and summarize one or more studies on the soil test you selected in step #4.Part 2: Developing your hypothesisWe calculated the relative density and relative frequency of five prairie plants in our first lab. Your hypothesis for this lab should be a possible explanation for that data (see figures 1 and 2 below) based on the soil tests we are conducting.Based on your research from part 1, #3 and #4 above, develop a hypothesis for the different relative density and frequency patterns between the two reconstructed prairies.Note: A hypothesis is a testable prediction, but we haven’t tested this yet, so you cannot be wrong!Feel free to use this format for your hypothesis if you aren’t sure how to write one.(insert on observation about the different density or frequency patterns between the two prairies) could be explained by (insert soil test), because . . .You could strengthen your hypothesis by including peer-reviewed studies on the soil requirements of one of the prairie plants.Part 3: Writing the introductionSummarize the purpose of investigating soil characteristics. (See Part 1, #1)Summary of current research/literature related to the topic. You should have at least TWO (2) outside sources cited. One should be about soil. The other should be about one of the tests that we are conducting in this lab.Use Google ScholarMust be from peer-reviewed journalsInclude internal citations following MLA formatHypothesis for the study you are conducting (not the ones you cited)Your hypothesis should be written in this format: (insert on observation about the different density or frequency patterns between the two prairies) could be explained by (insert soil test), because . . .Part 4: Finishing up the report.Click here to open up the template you are to use to finish the report, and finish writing all sections.Click here to view the rubric that will be used to score your report.Make sure to look at the feedback you received on your last report so that you know what you did well, and what you need to improve on in this lab report.This report is the reassessment of the last lab report, and therefore your grades on this report will replace the grades on the last lab report.

In the event that the 2 reviewers do not achieve consensus, a 3rd reviewer will be asked to assess the examination. The majority consensus will prevail in the decision of the final grade. For this examination, students can either earn a “Pass,” “Fail,” or “Rewrite.” • If a student earns a “Pass,” they will be allowed to begin the second Final Project/Dissertation block. • If a student earns a “Fail,” they will have a 2nd opportunity to retake the exam in its entirety at the next scheduled exam date set by the University. • If a student earns a “Rewrite,” they will have the opportunity to revise the submitted exam and make the recommended edits, additions, and/or deletions as denoted within a time frame of 5 days.

If a student receives a second “Fail,” they will not be permitted to progress in the DBA program and may be dismissed from the University.

You will write a 7-10 page research related to social, professional and computer ethics issues.  You will decide upon your own topics based on book readings, your own interests and research.  You may build upon a topic you already wrote about.    You should use APA style and include proper citations.

For this option, select one person/stakeholder in your community who might have interest or expertise in your community action plan. Remember, a stakeholder is a person with an interest or concern in something. This stakeholder should have a connection to your portfolio topic in your chosen community as this may help you determine who you can interview. Plan a brief interview with this person to run your ideas for an action plan to implement in your community by him or her as you continue drafting your plan. Do not use this interview to verify that this person thinks the issue exists in your community. The existence of the issue should already be evident from your previous research. Your interviewee could come from the following (don’t be limited by this list): Government officials (state, regional, local, or federal) Local health/public health department agent(s) Non-profits or non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Think broadly. For example, consider national and local organizations (e.g., men and women’s organizations, schools, government-funded services, and volunteer organizations). Businesses often help fund or implement community projects. Colleges or universities may have grants, special departments, or clubs/organizations. Churches or faith-based organizations Instructions Before your interview, list 10 questions about the plan you are developing to tackle an issue in your community. These should be questions that you want to ask the person you have selected to interview. Take notes during the interview, in preparation for writing a summary of your conversation. After the interview, write a 2- to 3-page summary of the interview, not including the title and reference pages, which are required. List each question you asked, as well as a short, one-paragraph summary of the response you got to each question. The paper must be formatted correctly using APA style. Remember, all research material used in your paper must be paraphrased and include an in-text citation.
