Domestic violence and abuse

Students are required to make main posts (three to four paragraphs) that address the specific discussion and peer review posts (responses to his or her classmates’ posts that are two to three paragraphs each).  All posts must utilize and cite material from the unit’s course information/readings, including complete internal citations and a reference list.  Each post is worth 8 points.

What are substantive postings? Substantive postings include:

  • Responding to discussion questions as well as discourse between students related to subject matter within the course. This includes posting responses to others’ answers within a Discussion Area. A response may express agreement with or challenge to the point of view expressed, supported by references (citations) to the text or lecture.
  • Contributing to the discussion based upon course content, theory, or personal experiences, not simply personal opinion.

This unit students are required to make one main post in each of the discussion questions, with one peer review post in either question (3 total posts- 2 main and 1 peer).

Answer preview

Based on the proposed research, I am interested in exploring public administration areas and their contribution in handling domestic issues, including domestic violence and abuse. The essence of this study is to identify whether there are adequate measures implemented by the public administration areas in providing support interventions to the affected victims.  Hence, the research title is public administration areas handling domestic violence and child abuse and their support measures in addressing this social problem. Using the formulated research title, the five key terms to use when locating peer-reviewed articles are “public administration areas handling domestic issues,” “the government’s role in addressing domestic violence,” “support interventions by public administration areas in solving domestic abuse,” “role of public administrators in handling domestic violence and abuse” and victims of domestic violence and their insights regarding the support received from public administrators.”
