Case Study on Governance
This week we are looking for—and analyzing—governance via the case study method again.
Important reminder I have shared previously but sometimes there is still some confusion. A case study is not a political article or opinion paper of someone else, an advocacy group, or even your opinions. Nor is a case study an analysis of one of the current or previous assigned references (e.g., Jefferson article).
Look for case studies that are real life examples and situations that examine and discuss the policy formation, development, and implementation processes. What was the problem faced by the organization? Who were the stakeholders? What strategy, process, or methodology was used to engage the issue? What was the result? How did the process of governance actually work? What was the impact on citizenry?
Apply: Submit your discussion post with the following critical components.
• Apply concepts related to governance in a specific, researched public administration case study. The actual case study must focus on a real-world public administration situation that is being discussed and analyzed in the chosen article.
• The article research methods can be qualitative or quantitative in nature, but it must specifically focus on the public administration context.
• Remember to synthesize your research and findings with the required readings and presentations for this week and a Biblical/covenantal model of statesmanship, leadership and organizational behavior
Here are my recommendations for this assignment:
Asks/Assignment: Seek out a (preferably peer-reviewed academic journal) article that analyzes a real-world public administration governance situation being discussed and assessed in the chosen article. Introduce the topic to the professor and student colleagues and share what you learned from that case example in a robust discussion board post briefing the professor and the class on the governance challenges inherent within your selected case study topic. Post—and please use these section headings to help readers track with your thinking: • Definition: What is “governance”? Please share your definition of governance. • Section 1: Present the citation and summarize what happened in your selected case study—i.e., what the rest of us need to know so we will understand the case study and your analysis—who did what, how, when, what results… • Section 2: Present and assess the governance challenge inherent in the case study. Did the person act in accordance with your definition of governance? Ethically? Evidencing statesmanship?
• Section 3: What could have been done differently to maximize results? What would you have done to improve the outcomes of the case study?

Consider the types of leaders in public service. Then assess whether leaders are born or made; is leadership innate or learned? Compare the differences and similarities between leader and management roles. And finally, justify the Christian calling to political involvement. Apply at least 1 biblical passage to the concept or practice of leadership. Explain why you picked the passage and what it means to you.

RESEARCH PAPER: JOURNAL ARTICLE REVIEW ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
The most important channel for academic research is the peer-reviewed journal article. In a peer-reviewed journal article, a scholar will: 1) propose a research question; 2) demonstrate the importance of this research question through analysis of relevant literature; 3) introduce a study that will explore the research question; 4) detail and analyze the results of that study; 5) draw conclusions from that study.
INSTRUCTIONS
In this assignment you will submit a review and evaluation of a single article, relevant to the topic of Immigration, that has been published in the past five years in a peer-reviewed journal. In this Journal Article Review you will:
• Identify the research question or central thesis of the article;
• Explain the method used to support the claims of the article
o State whether the method is quantitative or qualitative and give a brief
explanation of the methodological approach.
o State what data is collected. (For example: Is it a public opinion poll? An analysis
of historical budget data? A forecast of future COVID infections? An explanation
of congressional voting patterns by ideology?)
• Explain and evaluate the conclusions drawn from the study
o Assess whether the conclusions drawn by the article’s authors seem sound based
on the data they present.
o Identify any weaknesses or oversights of the article.
Your Journal Article Review Assignment should be presented in current APA format. It should be at least four pages of content in length, not including your cover page. You do not need to include a works cited page as the only item you are expected to cite is the article you are reviewing. Instead, begin your first content page with the citation of the source you are reviewing, presented in current APA format.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.

The purpose of Chapter One is to provide a framework for the research based on the topic given above. The chapter must create reader interest, provide a foundation for the problem that necessitates the research, overview the context of literature in which the research is founded, identify the importance of the research for a specific audience, and briefly introduce the research via the research questions. The Overview must clearly and concisely describe the contents and organization of the chapter.
Chapter One structure consist of: Overview, Background, Problem Statement, Purpose Statement, Significance of the Study, Research Questions (3), Definitions, and Summary. Here is detail descriiption of each paragraph heading:
Overview
The purpose of Chapter One is to provide a framework for the research. The chapter should create reader interest, provide a foundation for the problem that necessitates the research, overview the context of literature in which the research is founded, identify the importance of the research for a specific audience, and briefly introduce the research via the research questions. The Overview must clearly and concisely describe the contents and organization of the chapter. Background
The Background section educates the reader regarding the topic. Start this section by catching the reader’s attention. Use recent evidence from a brief selection of recent scholarly journal articles to engage your reader. The Background section then moves into an overview of the most relevant literature regarding the issue and provides a historical, social, and theoretical context regarding the issue. Remember that this is just an overview. The historical overview examines how the issue has evolved over time from the past to the present-day. The background’s historical overview should be well supported by an appropriate number of seminal scholarly journal articles and/or books. The conceptual and/or theoretical overview relates the issue to similar studies and discusses the theories that drive them. The theory discussion should be supported by the appropriate number of relevant scholarly journal articles and/or books. Conclude the Background section by summarizing the information and preparing the reader for the problem. You must include qualitative data to substantiate information presented. The Background section is approximately four pages long.
Problem Statement
The problem statement discusses how the literature may not have completely addressed the issue. For example, there may be controversy regarding mixed results from other studies, unexamined populations, lack of new testing instruments, etc. In other words, convince the reader that there is not enough research available to bring the issue to closure. The problem statement finds its “roots” in other studies and expands on their recommendations for further research. The problem statement should be well-supported by a brief discussion of recent scholarly journal articles or books. The problem statement ends with a declarative statement: “The problem is …” which is clearly supported by current literature. The Problem Statement section is approximately one page long.
Purpose Statement The purpose statement usually begins with, “The purpose of this study is…” The purpose statement gives the reader a quick overview on how you plan to help “solve the problem.” Once again, since the problem is a gap in the research on a particular issue, your purpose is simply to propose another research study. However, you need to be specific on what you plan to do. The purpose statement foreshadows the research question(s). The purpose statement includes the variables (i.e., Independent, Dependent and/or Control) and defines each of the variables. Dictionary definitions are not acceptable. Significance of the Study
At this point, the reader should be convinced that the issue is important, that there is a gap in the current research on the issue, and you have a proposed study to inform this gap. This section convinces the reader that the study will add to existing literature by building off of similar research that investigates the same issue. It includes a descriiption of the contributions that your study will make to the knowledge base or discipline, both theoretically and empirically. This section also includes a brief descriiption of how the study is important to other locations, organizations, general populations, or the sample being studied. References are very important here, as they lend additional credence and support for your study. All assertions in this section need to be well-supported by the literature. Research Questions
The proposed research questions need to be derived from the problem and purpose statements. A well-formulated research question (a) asks about the relationship/differences between two or more variables, (b) is stated clearly and in the form of a question, (c) is testable (i.e., possible to collect quantitative data to answer the question), and falisifiable (d) is replicatable (i.e., another researcher could obtain the same results using your data) (e) does not pose an ethical or moral problem for implementation, (f) is specific and restricted in scope (i.e., the aim is not to solve the world’s problems), and (g) identifies exactly what is to be solved. In addition, it should be noted that the research question informs the research design and statistical analysis. A typical dissertation contains one to three research questions. Research questions should be listed, each on a separate line. Example:
RQ1: What affect does country type (metro/suburban/rural) have on intergovernmental growth rate (IGR)?
RQ2: Controlling for political orientation (political), what affect does country type (metro/suburban/rural) have on intergovernmental growth rate (IGR)?
Definitions
The final section of Chapter One can offer the reader discussion and descriiption of the terms pertinent to the study. For example, if the PhD candidate is studying political attitudes, the reader should understand what is meant, exactly, when the word “attitude” is used in the dissertation. Academic literature must be used to describe and justify the definitions used for each of the key terms in the project. If the dissertation utilizes abbreviations, the front matter of the dissertation should contain a list of abbreviations. This section should be written in paragraph form. Roadmap
Provide a brief “roadmap” for the reader, so the reader knows what to expect in forthcoming chapters and sections. Summary
Provide a summary of Chapter One.
