Research Proposal for Project 5
Here you will be proposing to research a specific problem with an eye toward making a recommendation for solving it. The results of your research with your recommendation will be reported at the end of the semester in Project 5.
Attach your research proposal (file type: rtf, doc, or docx) here. Like most research proposals, you should present a research plan, but it should include all of the below information. Your proposal is also a kind of topic proposal as well, in that I’ll be looking to see if I think your topic is feasible and respond either with “permission to proceed” or with a suggestion of something to do before going further. One more time, remember that the focus is to be a real-world "local" problem or opportunity that you will solve.
Below is the list of required information to include:
? your precise topic and the background for that topic (what kind of problem your report addresses and how your report will go toward solving that problem)
? different solutions to the problem or opportunity you intend to explore in discovering what exactly to recommend
? how questions of feasibility enter into the topic
? how the topic fits the project 5 assignment in other ways (is it local, specific, practical, and a study of a problem with an eye toward recommending one out of a few researched solutions?)
? the type of research you have already done and how that affected your topic
? further research that you will pursue (be as specific as possible)
? a plan of action for completing the report, including a tentative schedule for getting various components done
LENGTH: One to two pages, single spaced
