Details: To reflect on what you have learned in topic 1 about research methods, please read the below scenario and answer all questions below. While APA style is not required, solid academic writing is expected.
Scenario:
Samantha, who works for an educational curriculum company, was asked to test a new reading program called E-Z read. She asked the principal of Desert Elementary School for permission to access two classrooms, where she could test the program. Students were randomly assigned to both classrooms. Miss Jones's class was asked to use E-Z read program for one semester, and Mrs. Brown's class was asked to continue using their regular reading program.
