Construct a 1,000-1,250-word response that addresses the following:

1. Read the “Franklin Equipment, Ltd.” case study 11.3 in chapter 11 of the textbook. Respond to Questions 1 through 4 of the case.
2. Discuss strategies for conflict resolution for stakeholders that you believe would be applicable for this case.
3. Finally, discuss how the key challenges raised on the case could be framed within a Christian perspective. In other words, how could the key challenges in the case be addressed using Christian principles? (CWV/IFLW)

This week, you will submit the annotation of a quantitative research article on a topic of your interest. Quasi-experimental, casual comparative, correlational, pretest–posttest, or true experimental are examples of types of research designs used in quantitative research.

An annotation consists of three separate paragraphs that cover three respective components: summary, analysis, and application. These three components convey the relevance and value of the source. As such, an annotation demonstrates your critical thinking about, and authority on, the source.

An annotated bibliography is a document containing selected sources accompanied by a respective annotation of each source. In preparation for your own future research, an annotated bibliography provides a background for understanding a portion of the existing literature on a particular topic. It is also a useful first step in gathering sources in preparation for writing a subsequent literature review as part of a dissertation.

• Use the Walden library databases to search for one quantitative research article from a peer-reviewed journal on a topic of your interest.
• Before you read the full article and begin your annotation, locate the methodology section in the article to be sure that the article describes a quantitative study. Confirm that one of the types of quantitative designs, such as quasi-experimental, casual comparative, correlational, pretest–posttest, or true experimental, was used in the study.
• Annotate one quantitative research article from a peer-reviewed journal on a topic of your interest.
• Provide the reference list entry for this article in APA Style followed by a three-paragraph annotation that includes:
  • A summary
  • An analysis
  • An application as illustrated in this example
• Format your annotation in Times New Roman, 12-point font, double-spaced. A separate References list page is not needed for this assignment.

I have attached an example

Think back on the topics we have covered this term. You might focus on some of the course content, the “controversial” ideas contained in the Discussion Boards or perhaps something we discussed in class. I’d like for you to reflect on something in those assignments that has led you to change your mind on a topic or at least change your perspective on something in a significant way.

I find many times when I am challenged to think deeply about something, especially when I am forced to consider the views of others, that my views are impacted in some way. Sometimes I decide I was wrong. Sometimes I realize I was thinking too narrowly, or even being thoughtlessly prejudiced, in my views. Sometimes I decide I was basically right, but I am better able to understand and empathize with the views of others. And I’m always reminded that considering other perspectives is healthy.

So, for this assignment, write a paper describing a time this term when something like that has happened to you.

I really hope you can honestly say it has happened. Otherwise I’ll feel like my assignments were failures. If you honestly don’t think anything in what you’ve read and heard this term has had a significant impact on your personal views, just write about something someone else in the class said that you found interesting or insightful. (If that’s true I’d like to respectfully suggest that you consider whether or not you are honestly willing to be open to other perspectives. Being stuck in your views is a recipe for retaining fallacious beliefs, and is just boring!)

Details: 250 words minimum; MLA format (Times New Roman 12 point font, double-space, appropriate heading)

No sources or citations required, but you should describe what was said or what you read that had an impact on you. You are not required to identify the source, if it was another student and you don’t remember who it was, but if it was a media source you of course should cite it as with anything you use for any class.

Imagine you’ve just seen the following on Twitter or Facebook:

Red Nation Rising   @RedNationRising

Pope Francis shocks world, endorses Donald Trump for president, releases statement

#RedNationRising  endingthefed.com/pope-francis-sh…

9:36 PM – Oct 13, 2016

(For accessibility purposes I’ve retyped this tweet rather than using a screenshot.)

Do you accept it as true? Does the fact that you like Trump make you more likely to accept it as true? Or does that fact that you don’t like Trump make you less likely to accept is as true?

Where would you look? What would you read? How would you investigate?

write a minimum 250-word mini-essay discussing what you would do to decide if the post is true.

As always, you should use MLA format, meaning Times New Roman 12-point font, double-spaced, appropriate heading, with care taken in proofreading, spelling, paragraphing, word usage, etc.

You must provide a complete works cited page including links to all the sources you consult.
