Research Methods Reviews

I have assigned articles to seven individuals this week. Go to the Week 09 Discussion Board on Canvas to see the assignments. In case anyone needs it, here are the instructions for completing a review. Note that you can trade articles with someone else who is also assigned a presentation for Week 09, but please let me know if you do that. Thank you.
