1 paragraph
, minimum
List 3 strategies to reduce or eliminate health disparities within your population. Strategies can be found in Chapter 13 of your text. The strategies are not geared toward one specific cultural group but use your critical thinking skills to apply it to the cultural group you chose.

Summary:
Royal Barton developed an electronic reel for handicapped individuals who would like to fish. The
system works on a six-volt battery; when a retrieval button is pushed, the electrical system engages
two gears. Only one hand is needed to operate the system. A professional who was temporarily
handicapped now uses the reel on a full-time basis.
Questions
What business research problem does Royal Barton face? What are his information needs? Outline
some survey research objectives for a research project on the Royal Bee system. What type of
survey—personal interview, telephone interview, or mail survey—should be selected? What sources
of survey error are most likely in a study of this type? What means could be used to obtain a high
response rate?

Scenario 1. North Korea Nuclear & Ballistic Missile Program: You are a Defence Intelligence
Organisation (DIO) or Headquarters Joint Operations Centre (JOC), J2 (Intelligence
Directorate), Bungendore intelligence analyst and you have been directed to research,
analyse and deliver a comprehensive yet concise ‘Intelligence Estimate’ & one-page ‘Issue
Paper’ on the historical, current and projected situation in North Korea concerning its
Nuclear Weapons and Ballistic Missile programs. Your assigned mission is to provide an
intelligence assessment on this problem using an intelligence preparation of the operational
environment approach to support the development of potential future Australian national
courses of action (CoAs). You will need to assess North Korea’s Nuclear and Ballistic Missile
program capabilities and assess its intent to employ them: how, when and where — most
likely and most dangerous courses of action (COAs).
Scenario 2. PRC Maritime Territorial Ambitions in the South China Sea: You are a Defence
Intelligence Organisation (DIO) or Headquarters Joint Operations Centre (JOC), J2
(Intelligence Directorate), Bungendore intelligence analyst and you have been directed to
build a comprehensive yet concise ‘Intelligence Estimate’ & one-page ‘Issue Paper’ on the
historical, current and projected situation in the South China Sea involving expansive
People’s Republic of China (PRC) maritime territorial claims. Your assigned mission is to
provide an intelligence assessment on this problem using an intelligence preparation of the
operational environment approach to support the development of potential future
Australian national courses of action (CoAs). You will need to assess the PRC’s expansive
maritime territorial claims and supporting activities in the South China Sea, as well as
China’s future intentions, to include most likely and most dangerous potential courses of
action (COAs).

“Media do have influence, but they are among many influences on human awareness, attitudes and behaviour and their effects are contingent and contextual” (Macnamara 2012, p. 153). Discuss how Public Relations practice is informed by the application of media theories.
“Theories are…alive and relevant. Discovering them is unlocking the door to chambers of hidden treasures…” (Macnamara 2012, p. 14). Using at least two of the theories or theoretical concepts described in Topic 8, discuss the relevance of theory to the contemporary Public Relations manager.

The Harvard Referencing Style is to be used in blog posts for academic references. See Referencing Guides on the UniSA Library website.
Students will be assessed on:

Portfolio guidelines
The main part of the portfolio which students should prepare for this course consists of a qualitative
case study.
To produce the qualitative case study, students should first clarify (in a form of an abstract) the
dimensions of their PhD research, that is – to state the problem they wish to explore, the purpose of
their research, and the methodology they intend to apply. Next, students should select a person, a single
institution or company, or a particular policy to be their case, i.e. unit of analysis; this case should
correspond to the student’s PhD research purpose and question(s). Then, students need to conduct one
observation of the selected unit of analysis (i.e. the case). In addition, students need to conduct an
interview with a key informant relevant to the selected case. In other words, the observation report and
the interview transcript (along with other gathered documents relevant to the case) should serve as
bases for the writing of the qualitative case study.
Eventually, students should submit by email four documents:
1. Abstract of your PhD research (300-400 words).
Your abstract should include background of the problem, purpose statement, research question(s),
clarification of the methods and techniques you intend to use, as well as a brief mention of the
expected findings of your research. To find out more about writing abstracts, please see the
document entitled ‘How to write an abstract’ which is available from the student platform Moodle.
Also, please consider the examples of purpose statement given in the textbook (see Merriam, pp.
62-63). Do not forget to add an appropriate title to your research. To learn more about titles, please
see the document entitled ‘How to write a great title’ which is available from the student platform
Moodle.
2. Written transcript of an interview (1000-2000 words).
You need to plan and conduct one interview with a key informant from whom you can gather
relevant data that will help you to write the case study. Make sure you use open-ended questions in
order to gather sufficient information about the person’s direct experience and views about the
problem so that you can write the case study in a form of a convincing narrative. The content of the
recorded interview should be transcribed according to the model given in the textbook (see
Merriam, pp. 111-113).
3. Observation report (field note) (1000-2000 words).
You need to plan and carry out one observation of the selected unit of analysis (i.e. the case). This
could be a systematic, planned observation during a field visit to a site and situation relevant to your
chosen case. You need to produce a field report, i.e. an observation note/report according to the
model given in the textbook (see Merriam, pp. 132-135). Your observation comments should be
added in the note either within the text (in brackets) or on the right hand margins.
4. Case study (2000-4000 words).
The case study should be written as a report in a narrative form, and it should include rich, ‘thick’
descriptive parts. Besides an effective introduction, you should provide some background of the
problem; indicate your intentions and methodology; provide description of the findings; and offer
conclusions. Also, do not forget to add in Appendix the inventory of all the documents used while
preparing the case study. You may wish to follow the outline of a case study report which is given as
an example in the textbook (see Merriam, p. 263). Do not forget that qualitative research is about
people’s interpretation of the phenomenon that you investigate, so presenting their personal story
in the narrative report is essential to making a convincing case.
Studying the chapters from the main textbook (especially chapters 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10 in Merriam, 2009)
may appear essential to writing a successful portfolio. Indeed, further useful information can be found in
the other textbooks which are available from the student platform Moodle.
