Assess your progress and skills with quantitative reasoning and analysis. Where do you still need to improve, and what is your plan for improving these skills?
Assessing my progress and skills with quantitative reasoning and analysis is with being able to utilizing SPSS to compute my results. Initially taking this class I felt that SPSS was initially simple. But throughout the classes I noticed that it became more difficulty on using SPSS, where I had to utilize numerous websites and books to be able to get the appropriate results. I still seem to have some difficulty with creating APA style graphing, and my grades seem to show little improvement. I must admit this class is quite different from my initially Quantitative Analysis class. I would like to do more imputing data in SPSS on different type of research methodologies to strengthen this area. I would also like to practice on creating proficient APA graphs for all types of research designs. I believe Walden have seminars on strengthening this weakness, I remember seeing a seminar that was provided but the class filled up to quickly that I was unable to sign in.

For example I am currently working on my capstone which is a discussion of corn dumping into Mexico post-NAFTA and the effects it has had on the peasant farmer in Mexico. I cannot just talk about the quantitative component of this action which included numbers on inflation, tons, subsidies, the price of corn, numbers and numbers and more numbers. What is going to bring it all together is the interviews in some of the documentaries about these displaced farmers in Mexico and a lot of the undocumented populations in the United States that were also displaced by the corn dumping policies of the United States after the implementation of NAFTA. With the qualitative approach I will be able to provide the depth component to my capstone because it will be focused on a small number of interviews of these farmers who represent many of the peasant farmers of Mexico.
