Overview
Professionals in the social sciences investigate human behavior and society for the purpose of understanding why people act the way they do. This investigation can help address a wide variety of social issues, such as the role of social media in the Arab Spring protests, the impact of social skills on future success, racial factors in police violence, and how partitioned grocery carts can help shoppers purchase healthier foods. Social scientists can help address issues such as these through research and investigation.
The summative assessment for this course has two parts. In Project One, you will conduct a research investigation that examines an issue in the social sciences. You will identify appropriate resources for investigating the issue you select, use these resources to apply social science principles to the issue, and develop a question related to the issue. In addition, you will identify an audience who would be interested in the selected issue. In Project Two, you will develop a presentation for the audience you identified in Project One. In your presentation, you will explain how social scientific thinking has affected you and discuss the impact of the issue on your audience, supporting your claims with evidence.
Project One addresses the following course outcomes:
Illustrate the impact of social scientific thinking on personal and professional experiences
Select appropriate and relevant social science resources in investigating contemporary issues in the social sciences
Communicate effectively to specific audiences in examining fundamental aspects of human behavior
Apply essential principles of the social sciences in addressing critical questions related to human behavior
Prompt
In Project One, you will select a contemporary issue in the social sciences to investigate. You may select an issue discussed in the course, or you may select your own with instructor approval. You could consider using your question from SCS 100 if it is something you would like to investigate further for this assessment. After selecting an issue, you will conduct a research investigation, identifying appropriate resources for researching the issue, applying social science principles to your issue, and developing a question related to the issue. You will submit your research investigation as a written report.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
Introduction: In this section, you will discuss your social science issue and select resources that you can use to research the issue. Specifically, you should do the following:
Describe the issue in the social sciences that you have selected to investigate. Why is this issue significant?
Describe at least three social science resources that you could use to investigate the issue you selected. Your sources must be relevant to your issue and must be of an academic nature appropriate for the issue. In your description, consider questions such as these: What are the similarities and differences in the content of your sources? What makes them appropriate and relevant for investigating your issue? What was your thought process when you were searching for sources? How did you make choices?
Body: In this section, you will use the social science resources that you selected to investigate your issue, focusing on an appropriate audience and the social science principles related to the issue. Be sure to cite your sources. Based on your research, address the following:
Identify the social science principles that apply to your issue. In other words, which principles of social science apply to the issue you selected?
Explain how the principles you identified apply to your issue. In other words, how are the social science principles you identified relevant to your issue?
Identify an audience that would be interested in your issue. For example, who would benefit most from hearing your message? Or who could best help in addressing the issue?
Describe how and why you can tailor your message to your audience, providing specific examples. For example, will your audience understand social scientific terminology and principles, or will you need to explain these? How will you communicate effectively with your audience?
Conclusion: In this section, you will conclude your research investigation by discussing future directions for research. Specifically, you should do the following:
Based on your investigation, develop a research question related to the issue you selected. In other words, what would you like to know more about?
Explain how a social scientist would go about investigating the research question you developed. In other words, what would the next steps be if a social scientist were to continue researching your question?
Provide a reference list that includes all of the social science resources you used to investigate your issue and question. Ensure that your list is formatted according to current APA guidelines (or another format with instructor permission).
What to Submit
Your research investigation should be submitted as a 3- to 5-page Microsoft Word document and should use double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Any citations should be formatted according to APA style.

Current social scientific data indicates that there is a significant decline in fertility and birthrates in the US. Discuss why we may be seeing a decrease in fertility rates. What are the reasons that individuals may choose to not have children? What are the advantages  and disadvantages, for individuals/families and society, of a declining fertility rate? This course uses the term “childfree”.  How does this differ from “childless”? Your primary post should be approximately 500 words.
Remember to specifically cite the materials in this module and other academic and government sources in all of your posts.
Remember to cite all sources (both in-text and references) in APA format. The following link to the Research, Write and Cite Guide will provide directions to information about APA citations.

  You have 2 options on how to complete this assignment. OPTION 1:  Research online and read about self care, identifying signs of burnout and how to prevent burnout.
You must find reputable sources online, which means staying away from any websites that are trying to sell products or are based on religious beliefs. If you can find evidence-based practices that would be even better. This would mean that the program has data and results that show/prove they are able to help people recover from drug abuse.
After you find articles and do your research, please write a 3-page paper summarizing the research you have found. Be detailed.
Be certain to mention fully your sources of information within your paper. You do not need a bibliography or works cited page. But, you do have to tell me where you got your information or data.
The paper should be 3 pages in length at a minimum.
Your paper must be written with 12-point Arial font with 1-inch margins. It also must be double-spaced.

developed a preliminary plan for a workplace proposal that was based on the topic from the research essay you submitted in Module 6.  (PROVIDING MORE RESOURCES FOR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS( This week, you will use that plan and what you have learned in the readings to develop a short (1-2 page) workplace proposal.
As a reminder, your manager (or another appropriate management-level person in your organization) expressed interest in hearing more about how your research essay topic might benefit your organization. Your goal is to convince your manager (or other appropriate reader) to give you permission to proceed with what you’re proposing.
If you currently don’t work in an organization where your overall topic makes sense, that’s okay. Just simulate a workplace environment to the best of your ability by identifying the best person within a real (or fictional) company to read your proposal. If you’re having trouble with this part, reach out to your instructor for assistance.
Your proposal must include the following sections:
Introduction (subject, purpose, significance, and background)
Project details (recommendation or solution)
Deliverables or milestones (products and/or due dates)
Conclusion (summary and call to action)
Because the document is in a letter format, you are not required to use internal headings to distinguish the individual sections, but you may do so if that approach makes sense. You may also include visual elements if you think that they would help your reader take action on your proposal, but visuals are also not required.
Your proposal is not expected to be comprehensive or lengthy. Use the information you have already developed in your research essay and revise it to meet your audience’s specific needs. By this point, you should have already conducted enough research to develop your proposal without too much extra time searching for supporting sources. After all, you’ve already prepared a complete research paper on the topic! But, be willing to augment some areas from your research paper and condense others. Be sure that you are focusing on your reader and what you think his or her expectations will be for the proposal.
