¶ … strong practices which produce solid results. Questionnaires are often used in research to provide raw data to the researcher in order to support or deny his hypothesis. My approach in developing a high quality questionnaire revolves around the purpose of the research. The purpose should be clear cut and not ambiguous. The purpose of the questionnaire needs to answer the following questions: What do I need to know? Why is this knowledge important? What information will be produced as a result of this questionnaire.
It is also important in developing a questionnaire to determine what specifically is being measured. Narrowing down the appropriate audience is also important when developing a questionnaire for research. The question of who is being targeted and all the demographic information associated with that task must be considered in the development.
It is also imperative that the data is collected in a practical manner when designing a questionnaire. Privacy issues must be taken into account as well. The actual layout of the questionnaire needs to be addressed as well as certain biases are apt to creep in to design which may unintentionally affect the outcome of the research. It is most important to be concise and succinct when designing research questionnaires, as confusing the audience may not be in the best interests of the researcher as well.

Scholarly articles are often verbose and confusing. A dictionary is often required to help translate words that may be foreign to the lay person trying to understand the author. The most important facet of developing an argument in a scholarly work is to understand the audience and who the article is directed towards. Sometimes articles are not intended for the general public and to water down the terminology is not a necessary tactic to get one's point across. Dario's article does contain some complex language but does not over challenge the reader in my opinion.

The shift toward standardized testing has failed to result in a meaningful reduction of high school dropout rates, and students with disabilities continue to be marginalized by the culture of testing in public education (Dynarski et al., 2008). With that said, the needs of students with specific educational challenges are diverse and complex, and the solutions to their needs are not revealed in the results of standardized testing (Crawford &
The AS person has often spent an inordinate amount of time fixated on one particular (often peculiar) topic, and when that person is in a social environment, he or she tends to ramble on about the topic and that one-sided rambling is more important to that AS person than any other activity in a social setting, Woodbury-Smith writes on page 4. According to Woodbury-Smith, as the AS person gets older,
