Tasks:
(1) Use the handout(s) provided and/or information from the D2L course and/or the textbook’s “Investing” chapters to learn about the three major investment options {bonds (corporate and government), stocks (common and preferred), and mutual funds. Real estate is also offered as an option} and the four factors for evaluating these choices. The four factors include safety and risk, investment income, investment growth, and investment liquidity. Your choice of investments should be based on your personal financial goals, your willingness to assume risk, your age, and the amount of time you have for your investments to work for you.
(2) Imagine you have funds (it doesn’t matter how much) to invest. Assume you must choose an investment that will help you obtain your investment goals. Using Practice Quiz 11-3 as a guide, rank the following investment options: corporate stocks, corporate bonds, government bonds, mutual funds, and real estate. Follow the key given in Practice Quiz 11-3, from 1 for low to 5 for high and justify your choice for your investment portfolio. See Exhibit 11-4 for help evaluating your investment choices. Your justification should be based on information presented in Chapters 11-13. For instance, are you interested in safety/risk, income, growth, and/or liquidity? How does your age affect your decision? How does the time factor affect your decision? As a part of this discussion, use the Suze Orman method to determine the percentage of your investments that should be invested in growth investments

Locate a peer-reviewed qualitative research article from your field (degree area) that may be applied to your
area as a practitioner or change agent.
In your post, provide a brief description of the article.
How trustworthy do you find this article? What contributed to the trustworthiness of the article? Does this article
meet the standards outlined by Levitt, et al. Explain why/why not?
Considering the research-practice gap, why is it necessary for an evidence-based practitioner to critically
evaluate research first-hand? How might reporting standards for qualitative research aid the practitioner in
evaluating the research?
The article by Tkachenko, Hahn, and Peterson (2017) discusses the “research-practice gap.” Discuss how the
findings from this research be applied in your field as practitioners and/or agents of change as a way of
bridging the “the “research-practice gap.” Why must you consider the generalizability of this study?
When responding to your classmates’ post, identify strategies that might be used to narrow the researchpractice gap? Also, identify what ethical issues should be considered before applying research findings.
This assignment meets the following Course Learning Outcomes:
CLO1 – Identify and explain qualitative research methods and assess their appropriateness for different
research problems.
CLO5 – Identify, critically evaluate, and summarize published qualitative research studies.
CLO6 – Assess issues related to methodological rigor in qualitative research.
