As seen in the reading this week, conducting research requires critical thinking and can be a time-intensive process if not planned properly. However, there are various tools that can help you conduct your research more efficiently. It is ideal to have a research strategy or plan in place before looking for sources. In this discussion, you will build your research strategy. After completing this week’s reading and learning activities, respond to the following questions in at least two well-developed paragraphs: Last week, you sought out research that addressed common ground among different stakeholders in your community. This week, you will seek out hidden/underrepresented voices in community conversations about this issue. Try searching the web for "experience of X [underrepresented stakeholder]" such as “Experience of homeless veterans” or “Experience of students who have been bullied.” Once you have selected your source, write a discussion post that addresses the following items:  Include the revised version of your thesis statement for an argument for change in your community and identify at least three search terms you can use in the Library or an internet search engine to find sources that address underrepresented perspectives in your community that will be affected by your argument.  Tell us about the source you selected. Using your own words rather than quoting from the source, explain how the author’s position or experience relates to your argument for change. How has this influenced your thinking about this topic?  What criteria helped you decide if this source is credible and useful for your research? Review the learning activity Evaluating Sources and use the criteria discussed there to evaluate your source.  Wrap up the narrative portion of your post with an open-ended question to foster conversation or help you figure out additional research opportunities.  Finally, review the Academic Writer resource Reference List Entries and the video Formatting an APA Style Reference List and create an APA formatted references page citation for the source. When responding to peers, challenge yourself this week by offering additional search terms or new stakeholders for your classmate to consider as they seek out those underrepresented voices. NOTE: You can begin working on a references page for your upcoming assignments by tracking the key elements of each source: Author’s name Publication date Title of source Publication information URL Academic Writer can help you identify the type of source you have and create a properly formatted citation in APA style.

Hello, This is my revised thesis: The owners of the company should place limitations on the hours that salaried employees work because it will improve mental health, reduce mental fatigue, and reduce costly errors. The community that is afflicted with my community problem is a very small community, totaling about twenty people. Out of the stakeholders present in the community, second-tier salaried employees would probably be the most underrepresented. Although their opinions are usually considered, they are not included in all conversations for policy changes. Three potential search terms for this thesis would be “overwork* and mental health”, “long hours of work mental health”, or “overworking”. I found the article below on Investopedia: https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/102815/5-signs-youre-being-overworked-your-job.asp The author discusses various symptoms that are signs of employees being overworked. The author recognizes that employees tend to overwork for several reasons. The resulting errors and the lack of a work-life balance directly affect all stakeholders. Overworking causes the vital employees to make potentially costly mistakes. This source is an article on the Investopedia website. Online resources must be carefully checked. This article isn’t perfect, but it has several positive attributes. The website uses a fact-checker to check the credibility of submitted articles. The timeframe for the article is relevant, as is was written within the last year, when additional stress from Covid began affecting business. What would you do the reduce the workload on key employees if it was your business? Reference: Bryant, S. (2021, September 8). 5 signs you're being overworked at your job . Investopedia. Retrieved December 14, 2021, from https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/102815/5-signs-youre-being-overworked- your-job.asp.
