Residency: QUANTITATIVE Journal Article Review 

You will review both quantitative and qualitative research.  The topic is up to you as long as you choose a peer-reviewed, academic research piece.  I suggest choosing a topic that is at least in the same family as your expected dissertation topic so that you can start viewing what is out there.  There are no hard word counts or page requirements as long as you cover the basic guidelines.  You must submit original work, however,  and a paper that returns as a large percentage of copy/paste to other sources will not be accepted.  (Safe Assign will be used to track/monitor your submission for plagiarism. Submissions with a Safe Assign match of more than 25% will not be accepted.) Please use APA formatting and include the following information:

• Introduction/Background:  Provide context for the research article.  What led the author(s) to write the piece? What key concepts were explored? Were there weaknesses in prior research that led the author to the current hypothesis or research question?
• Methodology:  Describe how the data was gathered and analyzed.  What research questions or hypotheses were the researcher trying to explore? What statistical analysis was used?
• Study Findings and Results:  What were the major findings from the study? Were there any limitations?
• Conclusions:  Evaluate the article in terms of significance, research methods, readability and the implications of the results.  Does the piece lead into further study? Are there different methods you would have chosen based on what you read? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the article in terms of statistical analysis and application? (This is where a large part of the rubric is covered.)

Instructions

1. Read through all  the provided source code to make sure that you understand the context. A  class named BinarySearchTree with an add method plus various utility  methods is provided for you. You must not change any  provided method with a body that is already complete. Note that linked  nodes are used to implement the BinarySearchTree class. Note also that  the data type allowed in the BinarySearchTree is constrained to be a  class that implements the Comparable interface and thus has a natural  total order defined.
2. The min method of the BinarySearchTree class currently has no body. You must provide a correct body for the min method.
3. A  sample main method is provided to illustrate building a simple binary  search tree and then using the min method to search for particular  values.

Problem Description: Finding the Minimum Value in a Binary Search Tree

Complete the body of the min method so that it returns the minimum value in the binary search tree.

The  following table lists an example call to min and the expected return  value when called in the context of the binary search tree pictured  below.

public class BSTMin {

  /** Provides an example. */

  public static void main(String[] args) {

    BinarySearchTree iBst = new BinarySearchTree<>();

    iBst.add(8);

    iBst.add(2);

    iBst.add(6);

    iBst.add(4);

    Integer imin = iBst.min();

    // The following statement should print 2.

    System.out.println(imin);

    BinarySearchTree sBst = new BinarySearchTree<>();

    String smin = sBst.min();

    // The following statement should print A.

 CLASSMATE RESPONSES 

1. How can social media help emergency management and disaster response efforts?

Every social media platform can be used for emergency management. Depending on what emergency management professionals are trying to achieve, certain social media methods and methods may be more beneficial than others.Facebook is the largest social media network with nearly 2.5 billion users worldwide, and messages posted on this platform are most likely to be seen by a large number of digital audiences. Certain functions also make it attractive in emergency management situations. For example, if a major car accident affects traffic on a highway, emergency management officials can use Facebook posts to detail the accident, estimated commute delays, and alternative routes based on where the driver is from.Twitter only allows 280 characters per message or tweet, so it may not be as effective when conveying large amounts of information in one post. These messages can still be viewed and forwarded immediately by followers, and can help send brief alerts and updates about emergencies, such as ongoing shootings or crimes.Hashtags enable social media users to view a collection of posts with corresponding text. For example, if a user were to search for the hashtag #travelimages on Twitter or Instagram, all public images sharing the same hashtag would appear. When trying to organize and collect public information about emergencies, hashtags can help emergency management professionals.
 

2. What other options, other than social media, are available for communication during emergency situations?

In my opinion, a college or university should have a comprehensive plan in place for communication of emergency situations to students, faculty, staff, community agencies, and possibly parents.

In addition to social media, what other platforms should be used? The ability for emergency agencies to send regular texts during an emergency situation could prove helpful. The text would be delivered straight to the students phones. With social media they have to “search” for it. “Studies have shown that text messaging is one of the best ways to communicate with the current generation of students. With a 98% open rate, text messages have a much higher probability of reaching students compared to email.”
