**THIS ISN’T YOUR TYPICAL ASSIGNMENT**
**I KNOW I’VE CHOSEN A WRITING SERVICE. HOWEVER, THERE MIGHT JUST NEED TO BE REVISIONS AND EDITS. UNLESS YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN RE-WRITE TO ACHIEVE A HIGHER GRADE. EITHER WAY, I WILL PAY THE SAME AMOUNT. JUST GET ME AN A!**
I’ve attached my current draft of the paper along with the assignment instructions, rubric, and templates. After reviewing my work, I’m concerned that it might not align perfectly with the given instructions. If necessary, I’m open to you completely rewriting it!
The assignment requires incorporating 8-10 interview protocols or questions, or 12-15 questions/prompts for a survey.
Please guide me in tuning up the paper to precisely match the instructions. Since this is my final exam, achieving a high grade, preferably an A, is crucial.
Thank you.
—————-Notes-on-my-paper-comparing-with-instructions——————
The paper largely complies with the instructions for your qualitative research project, but there are a few points to consider to ensure full compliance:
Research Requirement: The instructions specify conducting at least 3 interviews or collecting responses from at least 15 survey participants. The paper mentions conducting interviews with 15-20 participants and also using surveys. This exceeds the minimum requirements and is well-aligned with the instructions.
Structure (IMRaD): The paper is structured with clear sections that align with the IMRaD format, including:
Introduction: Explains the phenomenon of remote work, its significance, and the research question.
Methods: Describes participant recruitment, data collection methods, and ethical considerations.
Results: Presents findings on productivity, work-life balance, and job satisfaction.
Discussion: Discusses the implications of findings, compares them with existing literature, and acknowledges limitations.
Future Work: Suggests future research directions.
Appendices: The paper includes all required appendices (recruitment script, consent form, survey instrument, interview transcripts, and codebook for data analysis), which is a critical part of the instructions.
APA Style and Ethical Considerations: The paper adheres to APA style for citations and maintains high ethical standards with informed consent and confidentiality, as required.
Audience Consideration: The paper targets an academic audience, specifically English instructors and the professor, which aligns well with the instructions.
_________________________INSTRUCTIONS____________________________
Throughout this course you’ve been gaining experience joining conversations–first in the secondary source unit and conversations that take place via published scholarship, and then in the archival unit and conversations that are grounded in the past–and in this unit, you’ll enter yet another conversation. This time, you’ll enter a conversation that is based on people’s perceptions/individual behavior. As you did with the first two papers, you will begin with a research question. From there, you will then conduct interviews OR surveys to gather data and formulate an answer to your research question.
* You will need to create your own research question*
Qualitative research methods are most often used in the social sciences (e.g., psychology, sociology, and anthropology), education, and writing studies, but experience conducting qualitative research is valuable in a wide variety of disciplines and career fields.
You are welcome to develop a topic that you chose for either your secondary or archival project, or you can opt for a new topic, as long as it’s within the larger umbrella of the course.
One tip: Generally, you’ll want to choose a population that you’re already connected to in some way –– e.g. a community you belong to, such as an intramural sports league or D&D group, or a group of people that you know in real life (friends / family / etc). As you think about your topic, think about who you know or could speak to for the project.
Research Interviews
The research you conduct for this project will be different than your other projects thus far. Rather than reading sources or searching through archives, you will conduct at least 3 interviews with “ordinary people… whose experiences, beliefs, and attitudes pertain to the research question you’re asking” (Rhetoric of Inquiry, p. 233). These interviews should be approximately 15 minutes long (30 minutes max!), and you’ll then transcribe and analyze your interviews to extrapolate the results for your study.
Research Surveys
If you opt for surveys, you’ll need responses from at least 15 people. These surveys should be between 15-20 minutes to take. Again, after you have the responses, you’ll analyze your surveys to shape your results.
Audience
Your audience for your qualitative research paper is me and other English instructors like me who participate in academic conversations that take place through published scholarship and are interested in your topic but who may not be overly familiar with the particular groups or issues you are investigating.
Requirements
Research: As stated above, you must conduct at least 3 interviews or 15 surveys for this project.

Length: Your final paper should be 1700-2000 words total (not including the Abstract, References, or Appendices). You can use this breakdown as a general guideline for each section, but feel free to adjust to suit your specific needs.
Introduction 300-500 words
Methods 200-400 words
Results 500-700 words
Discussion 400-600 words
Future Work 100-200 words
Appendices: At the end of your paper, you will attach the materials you created to conduct your study.
Appendix A: The recruitment script used to invite people to participate in your study.
Appendix B: A blank copy of the informed consent form you gave to your participants.
Appendix C: The interview protocol you developed to conduct your interviews/Survey Instrument.
Appendix D: Your interview transcripts/Survey results.
Appendix E: The codebook you developed as you analyzed your interview transcripts/survey responses.
Use proper APA documentation for your citations and References page.
See chapter 15 of your Writer’s Harbrace Handbook for help with APA documentation.
