I believe that the research questions that I have proposed, with a little tweaking, will help to answer the questions that have been put forth in this study. The ultimate goal is to come up with a way to reduce the amount of school violence that is occurring everyday. Tapping into the supply of middle school resource officers in order to help facilitate a plan is an idea that has not been looked at very closely.
When formulating good research questions it is important to make sure that they have only one single focus (Prasad, Rao and Rehani, 2001). I believe that my questions are formulated with a single purpose in mind. The purpose being how resource officers job duties can help to reduce the amount of crime and violence in schools. Answering these questions will be very helpful to other researchers in developing working plans to assist schools with the violence problem that exists today.
I have chosen to use a case study methodology when doing my research. Case study research is very...
Case studies are also good at emphasizing detailed related analysis of a limited number of events or conditions and their relationships (The Case Study of as a Research Method, 2006).
I intend to gather information from eleven resource officers that are assigned to three selected suburban middle schools. This information will serve as the data that I will use to conduct my case study.

Gender-Specific Therapy for Women Prisoners RESEARCH QUESTION AND JUSTIFICATION On average, women make up about 7% of the total federal and state incarcerated population in the United States. This has increased since the 1980s due to stricter and more severe laws that focus on recreational drug use, a lack of community programs, and fewer treatment centers available for outpatients (Zaitow and Thomas, eds., 2003). According to the National Women's Law Centers, women
Domestic Violence Applied research project Domestic violence is one of the most pervasive and little-understood crimes perpetuated today. The reasons that so many women remain in such abusive relationships and also why some women are finally capable of leaving violent households are little-understood, even though there is considerable statistical evidence that women suffering from domestic violence are under great risk of losing their lives to their abusive partners.

Sociology: Marx, Weber and Research Approach When Karl Marx observed how the Industrial Revolution, with its new capitalist economic system, was affecting society and social life, he was especially concerned with the division industrialization brought into society. In his view, this new revolution polarized society into the bourgeoisie (those who own the means of production, the factories and the land) and the much larger proletariat (the working class who actually perform

I will then outline a detailed personal development plan with a considered rationale.Some might wonder why a personal development plan is important. I will say that writing a personal development plan as a researcher is an important
