Discussion Protocol: The Original Post
Choose one of the journal articles posted above to read for this week’s Article Review. Students will post a discussion review (400-word minimum) of the article, as well as two responses to other posts.  Discussion posts should include a brief summary of the article and should focus on:

Identify the research question
The purpose and hypothesis.
The overall research design and primary methods used.
The data presentation.
The study conclusions.
Recommendations and how to improve the research in the future.

Your post should also identify strengths, weaknesses, and applicability of the research discussed in class.  Students are encouraged to think critically about research questions, future ideas, or projects that emerge from the journal club articles and discussions.
