For example, you may choose to develop a survey (including demographic questions and research questions) to measure employees’ satisfaction in a manufacturing. You will need to provide a scenario to describe the reason and importance of conducting this data collection. A literature review is needed to support the development of your survey. In the end, you need to turn in a final report (following APA format, using Times New Roman 12, double spacing, etc.) that includes: A cover page (indicating the subject you selected such as employee satisfaction, performance appraisal, employee motivation, leadership, teamwork.) One page of introduction (scenario) [Your scenario should indicate if it is a company or an education setting and what the issues are (If you decide to do a safety issue at an organization, here you will describe specific safety problems at the workplace)] One page of reasons and importance for this data collection (Here you will describe why you developed a survey to identify and solve the problem instead of using interview or observation; who are the target population; and the importance of conducting this survey study to address the problem.)
