Please see orientation for the work
This work is based on the reasearch proposal form that we already did and I attach it to you for your help.
Title Page. The title page should include the title of the term paper, course name and number, student name, and date.
Introduction. This section describes the purpose and scope of the topic and provides a brief overview of the research project you are proposing.
Description of the Problem or Issue. This section presents the core problem or issue related to the topic of the research project and why it is important.
Literature Review. This section presents a review of the literature related to the overall topic of the term paper. Both consensus and disagreements in the literature should be addressed.
Methods. In this section, you’ll be presenting the proposed research design and methods that will be used (hypothetically) in your proposed study.
Research question(s)/ research hypothesis. Present your research question(s) that is guiding the study. If you have a research hypothesis, present it.
Study participants. This section tell us who/what your population is and how you will obtain your sample. Provide your proposed sampling methodology.
Research design and data collection methods. This section tells us what your research design is and how you plan to collect and analyze your data.
Ethical Considerations. What are the potential ethical considerations you would have to take into account in carrying out your study. Discuss relevant precautions (e.g., consent, confidentiality, anonymity, benefits/risks, etc.) as appropriate to your proposed study. Would this study need to go through the IRB process?
Potential Policy and/or Practice Implications of Proposed Study. This section provides practical suggestions on how to apply the information in the paper to areas of policy and practice.
References. This section contains all source materials used in the preparation of the research proposal in proper APA format.
In order to improve the methods section of your paper. Below are some key pieces I would like for you to add. This will steer you in exactly what I would like to see. Please remember this when you are doing this section of your paper. Each numbered section should be a level
two header in your final paper.
