RES/709:  Research Conceptualization And Design 

Wk 2 Discussion 1 - Choosing a Research Topic

Please refer to the resources provided on CDS Central. They are intended to help you engage effectively on the discussion board.

Due Thursday

Watch How to Select Dissertation Topic or Thesis Statement or read the How to Select Dissertation Topic or Thesis Statement Guide and then write a 250- to 300-word response to the following:

• What is your dissertation topic or potential topic? If you are not completing a dissertation, what might be the focus of a research study you might complete? You can always change your mind on the research topic. (Be sure to focus on an overarching topic, not on a question or problem you want to solve).
• How might conducting research on this topic contribute to the body of knowledge in your field or add practical value for professionals?

Include your own experience as well as two citations that align with or contradict your comments as sourced from peer-reviewed academic journals, industry publications, books, and/or other sources. Cite your sources using APA formatting.

If you found contradicting information to what your experience tells you, explain why you agree or disagree with the research.

Due Monday

Review others’ posts and substantively respond to at least one of your course colleagues in 150 words. Why do you agree or disagree with their post? What in your professional experience supports your assertions?
