MAT 133 Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric

Overview: The final project for this course is the creation of a research study report. For the first milestone, you need to select an appropriate study from the provided list. Then you will draft the first of three sections that will make up your report. It is recommended that you use the extra help resource to assist you in organizing and developing your thoughts.

Prompt: Draft the “Introduction” section of your research study report, which includes the following critical elements:

l. Identify the specific focus of the research. In other words, what was this study about? What was the purpose of the study?

II. Describe the specific characteristics of the population being studied. For example, what was the sample size? What were its demographics?

III. Evaluate the research question(s) of your chosen study. Did the researchers suggest hypotheses for their research questions? To what extent are these questions significant, and why?

Post your Milestone One submission to the graded discussion in Module Two to receive peer and instructor feedback. Your grade will be based on the timeliness and quality of your initial post and the quality of the feedback that you provide to your peers. For tips on how to effectively engage in the peer review process, review these guidelines.

For your initial post, you must do the following:

  • Attach your Milestone One submission by Thursday at 11:59 p.m. of your local time zone.

For your response posts, you must do the following:

  • Reply to at least two different classmates outside of your own initial post thread by Sunday at 11:59 p.m. of your local time zone.
  • Demonstrate more depth and thought than simply stating that “Il agree” or “You are wrong.”

Rubric

Guidelines for Submission: Your draft of the “Introduction” section of your research study report should be 1 page in length (plus a cover page and references) and must be written in APA format. Use double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Cite all references in APA format.

Note: This rubric is tailored to this assignment and awards full points for “Proficient.” For the final project, you will need to demonstrate “Exemplary” achievement to earn full points. To see how you will be graded on your final project, review the Final Project Guidelines and Rubric document (in the Assignment Guidelines and Rubrics section of the course).
