• Research Presentation. Assume you are asked to
  present a half hour talk about research in human
  services. Since this could cover a vast number of
  concepts, you decide to illustrate a basic
  research process (steps) and provide a real-world
  example taken from your text. One example is
  Research in Practice 10.2 (pp. 273) and the
  second example is Research in Practice 9.2 (pp.
  246)

• HHS 460 Week 1 DQ 2 Intake Process (Ash)

• HHS 460 Week 2 DQ 1 Locating Resources (Ash)

• Intake Process. Often when providing services,
  basic intake information is required. The
  researcher could, at the end of a given time
  period, examine these intake papers and, based on
  some need, compute descriptive statistics using
  information provided by the clients /
  participants. Information such as income, family
  make up, and education levels could be used to
  compute mean values.

• Locating Resources. The ability to locate and
  utilize information relative to Health and Human
  Services is an important component of many health
  and human service jobs. Some of the areas
  included in HHS programs are
• ? Legal/illegal immigration
• ? Poverty
• ? Violence in the Media
• ? Unemployment

• HHS 460 Week 2 DQ 2 Research Venues (Ash)

• HHS 460 Week 3 DQ 1 Canadian National Health Plan
  (Ash)

• Research Venues. Research can be divided into
  three broad areas descriptive, qualitative, and
  quantitative. Some researchers subsume
  descriptive research (archival) as quantitative.
  However, for this discussion, we are considering
  it a separate kind, as descriptive research can
  fall into either area qualitative or
  quantitative. Your assignment for this discussion

• Canadian National Health Plan. Research can vary
  from highly sophisticated experimental studies to
  less rigorous short term investigations. Each
  research approach has advantages and
  disadvantages. Among the different paradigms you
  could use, two of the more common are the
  positivist approach and the interpretive
  approach (consult pages 39-40 in the text).

• HHS 460 Week 3 DQ 2 Research Formats (Ash)

• HHS 460 Week 3 Final Paper Outline (Ash)

• Research Formats. The research format found in
  scholarly journal articles has purpose and
  direction. Chapters 2 and 4 in the text provide
  information as to the logic and makeup of a
  research effort. Parallel to the structure of the
  research format is the notion of the scientific
  method as a basic approach to solving problems

• Final Paper Outline. The Final Paper will be the
  final assignment for this research course. This
  paper will be due on the last day of class in
  Week 5. Your written assignment for this week is
  to do the following
• Identify the phenomena you wish to concentrate
  on within the broad realm of health and human
  services. Your references (should be a minimum of
  eight), will come from the databases

• HHS 460 Week 4 DQ 1 Careers in HHS (Ash)

• HHS 460 Week 4 DQ 2 Research in Practice (Ash)

• Careers in HHS. The great variety of careers and
  occupations within the field of HHS is growing
  every year. A review of some of the data bases in
  the text will provide opportunities to search and
  identify many occupational areas within different
  governmental departments and programs. Searching,
  for example, the U.S. Department of Health and
  Human Services website will result in finding
  many careers such as social workers

• Research in Practice. Qualitative research in the
  past 30 years has increasingly been viewed as
  making an important contribution to research and
  evaluation. For this discussion, you are asked to
  read two Research in Practice articles in the
  text. Evaluate and synthesize the contribution

• HHS 460 Week 5 DQ 1 Ethics in Research (Ash)

• HHS 460 Week 5 DQ 2 Ethical Implications (Ash)

• Ethics in Research. Ethics plays an important
  role in conducting of research. While the
  individual researcher is responsible for his/her
  ethical practice, any research sponsored by an
  organization, university, or government program
  has a review process guided by a code of ethics.

• Ethical Implications. Assume you were interested
  in the issues related to violence in elementary
  level school children. You are aware of the
  increased incidences of bullying, leading to
  serious problems. Specifically, you want to video
  tape childrens behavior out of school on their
  way home to and from school. You want to capture,
  on video, the social interactions
