As the introduction states, the purpose of this assignment is to help you learn the research vocabulary.
First, you must describe the research process.

1. Include new terminology learned from the reading. What have you read? Have you made a list of the new words or terms you found in that reading?
2. How will this new terminology and knowledge apply to a career in criminal justice? Make sure you define each word/term you listed above and include information about how each one applies to the field of criminal justice.
3. How can not knowing the proper terminology affect you as you conduct criminal justice research? If you didn't know and understand the terminology above or other CR terms, how could that affect your CR research? What happens when someone uses terminology you don't understand.
4. How will knowing these terms be an asset to you when evaluating and analyzing research studies or data?
Basically, this is the opposite of #3.

Thanks for the Url link and I appreciate the break down for questions 1-4. I have had a lot of homework this week and just needed a place to start. I have a tendency of making things more difficult than they need to be.
