ASSIGNMENT: Scenario #2 The purpose of this wiki assignment is to allow you the opportunity to apply the descriptive and analytic study skills you have learned in this module to actual studies that were conducted. A wiki is a website that allows collaborative editing of its content and structure by its users. You have been placed into groups for this assignment. Using the Blackboard wiki tool, each group will create their own wiki in response to the following questions for their assigned scenario: 1. What type of study would you conduct and why? 2. What sampling method would you use? The purpose of the wiki is to explore all of the options including the strengths and weaknesses of each type of study design, each type of sampling method, and why these designs and methods may or may not be the best for the scenario. You will then make a group decision in the conclusion of the wiki to answer the question explicitly. Remember: A wiki is comprised of individual contributions to form a whole. The goal is to create one coherent group response without redundancy as a result of your individual contributions. Editing happens along the way. Review the wiki for new contributions daily so you can make changes or additions to your contributions. You are expected to make comments to your peers and respond to comments from your peers regarding the wiki content. This is how you will ensure accuracy and come together for your final conclusions to answer the two questions. You will be graded according to the rubric located in “Course Materials” – please be sure to address all components of the rubric in your group wiki SCENARIO #2: Non-smoking women in Brazil are disproportionally exposed to environmental tobacco smoke exposure in their homes and at work.
