Quality and Ethics in Qualitative Research
Question CXU10A Trustworthiness in Qualitative Research Understanding the strategies that have been developed to address issues of trustworthiness is the first step. The second step is considering “how could I do that in my own research?” It is important to recognize that it may not be feasible for you, as a novice researcher, to implement all possible strategies. For this Discussion, you will examine quality, trustworthiness, and credibility in qualitative research and provide specific techniques and strategies. To prepare for this Discussion: Review Chapter 11 of the Ravitch and Carl course text and the Shenton article related to trustworthiness in qualitative research. Use the Course Guide and Assignment Help to search for an article related to trustworthiness and/or quality in qualitative research. Write an explanation of how you ensure the quality, trustworthiness, and credibility of your qualitative research. Provide examples of specific techniques and strategies. Use your Learning Resources as well as the article you found in your search to support your explanation. Use proper APA format, citations, and referencing. Question CXU10B Ethics in Data Collection Research ethics in qualitative research starts with the presumption that the research process is the collaboration between researcher, participants, and context. At the same time, the researcher recognizes that she or he retains power over the data collection process, and the analysis and presentation of results. As a qualitative researcher, consider how you might accomplish your research objectives and biases with the feelings and privacy of your participants and sources. For this Discussion, you will explore the ethical challenges you will encounter as a qualitative researcher. To prepare for this Discussion: Review Chapter 11 of the Ravitch and Carl course text and consider ethics in qualitative research. Use the Course Guide and Assignment Help to search for an article related to protecting privacy, minimizing harm, or respecting the shared experience of others. Write an explanation of the unique ethical challenges of protecting privacy, minimizing harm, and respecting the shared experience of others. Use your Learning Resources to support your explanation as well as the article you found in your search. Use proper APA format, citations, and referencing. Question CXU10C/11A Discussion: Reflections on Qualitative Research for Social Change Be the change you wish to see in the world. —Mahatma Gandhi, (1869–1948) Indian Leader/Anti-War Activist Education without action is like a billboard in a basement—big, bold, but actionable to no one. By incorporating social change as part of its mission statement, the leadership of Walden University is asking students, faculty, and leadership to consider the possibility of how to use one’s education to deliberately be in the world and make some part of it a better place. Consider what you have learned from this course—the fundamental procedures of how to conduct qualitative research; and the critical processes that identify the researcher as a self-reflective co-participant. For this week, reflect on how these considerations have influenced your understanding of research and your direction for your dissertation or doctoral study. To prepare for this Discussion: Review the readings from the Ravitch and Carl and Rubin and Rubin and consider reflecting on your experiences in qualitative research throughout this course. Review the media programs related to The Qualitative Dissertation Experience: A Doctoral Candidate Experience and consider the experience of other doctoral candidates through this qualitative research process. Write your responses to the following: Explain what social change means to you as a Walden doctoral candidate. What experiences from the course most influenced your understanding? Explain what in qualitative research you would like to know more about as a result of taking this course. Reflect on your problem statement and the next steps for developing a research topic for your dissertation or doctoral study. Include an explanation of whether you would choose a qualitative approach, why or why not.

1984 Novel by George Orwell Freedom Individuality and Totalitarianism Essay
Essay #2: Beware of Big BrotherFor this essay, we will be reading George Orwell’s famous novel 1984 and considering how the novel compares to our own world. This is a compare and contrast essay which asks you to find and consider specific similarities and differences between the world that Orwell creates and our own world. There are many different themes or topics within the novel that you can explore, some of these include: Surveillance and Privacy Freedom and Individuality Totalitarianism/Dictatorship The role of technology in all of the aboveIn addition to comparing and contrasting the novel with our real world, and looking closely at the themes and ideas in the novel and how they impact us, you will also form some opinion as to what can/should/shouldn’t be done to prevent the world of 1984, and/or to either preserve and/or improve our own world.You might consider one or all of the following prompts/questions as you write:1. The world of Big Brother has three main slogans:WAR IS PEACE; FREEDOM IS SLAVERY; IGNORANCE IS STRENGTHThese slogans seem to be paradoxical and contradictory on the surface, but in the world of Big Brother, they make a kind of sense. Each is like an equation, but how can one thing equal its opposite? Perhaps it would be better to ask “How can one thing lead to its opposite?” Could war abroad lead to peace at home? Could absolute freedom make you a slave to your own desires? Could knowing too much make you think more than act? Choose one of these slogans and explore what it means in 1984, using examples from the book. Then think about how the slogan might apply in our own society.2. 1984 provides a cautionary tale about the potential of surveillance technology to allow an authoritarian government to control the population. At present, current technology, including smartphones, web cams, GPS tracking, internet-connected home appliances, and many other items, is being used to make daily life more convenient. However, each of these is potentially a very powerful surveillance technology that the totalitarian oligarchy of 1984 would have been overjoyed to use. At this moment, the government, or another entity, could easily see every Web site you have visited, read every message you ever sent, and listen to every phone call. In what ways does 1984 suggest that we should be worried that our use of electronic devices could someday lead to totalitarian control? If Big Brother really might use our electronics to watch us, what could we do to stop it?3. Science fiction novels don’t always try to predict the future, but in 1984, Orwell is trying to warn us of what might happen if new propaganda techniques and technology were combined in the hands of an authoritarian leader. As a prediction of the future, how accurate is 1984?4. “Newspeak” is attempt by Big Brother to control thought by reducing the number of words in the language and eliminating words that might lead to “thoughtcrime,” which is itself a Newspeak word. Is it possible to control thought through controlling language? Does our own society have similar tendencies? Discuss examples of Newspeak in the novel and how this kind of control might function in our own society.Compare and Contrast Essay Guidelines: A. 7-10 pages minimum.B. The essay should compare and contrast George Orwell’s 1984 with our own world in the present.C. The essay should have a specific thesis which tells the reader the similarity/difference you will be exploring, as well as your solution or why you don’t think we need a solution.D. The essay should have a title and an introductory paragraph that promote interest.E. The essay should support claims through textual evidence from the book, your research, and your own experience(s).F. The essay should have effective transitions (between sentences, paragraphs, and larger sections).G. The essay should be mostly free of mechanical, grammatical, and usage errors.H. The essay must be in MLA format, and include at least 4 secondary sources,one of which must come from a source other than the class readings. The book, 1984 is your primary source, and does not count as one of the 4 secondary sources. You must have a works cited page, also in MLA format.
