For your Module 6 Journal, you need to think about the role research will play in your future profession. In a paragraph of at least 200 words, describe the ways in which you might use research at work.

As you complete your journal response, consider the following questions:
• What kind of information will you need to be current on policies, processes, and issues?
• What kind of information will you need to be able to share with others, including both internal and external audiences, such as the general public, customers, or clients?
• What resources will you use?
• How can being current on issues in your field help you as a professional?
Your journal entry should be at least 200 words in length. Please remember that only you and your professor will have access to your journal.

See the Course Calendar for due dates for posts and responses.

Compose your work using a word processor and save it, as a Plain Text or an .rtf, to your computer. When you’re ready to make your initial posting, please click on the “Create Thread” button and copy/paste the text from your document into the message field.
