You will need to answer these questions. It can be between 4-5 pages. This is the beginning part of my dissertation. This will be a mixed-method study. I will provide a template, but you only need these three parts. I will attach an example of a dissertation prospectus. Make sure to use at least 4 references and in-text citations
1. Need for the Study (Anticipated Benefits). Who will
benefit from the fact that this research is undertaken? How? Why? Who might be
disturbed by this proposed study? How? Why?
2. Research Problem. What is the research problem you
are trying to solve? [A problem is a situation that, left untreated, produces a
negative consequence for some group, institution, or individual(s). “Girls
score lower on technology attitude scales than boys” isn’t necessarily a
problem; “girls are less inclined to pursue careers in technology-related
fields” is.] What makes it a problem? For whom? Who says so?
3. Research Questions. Based on your problem, what
research questions are you trying to answer? Why and how will answering these
questions contribute to solving the research problem? Remember…a research
question can be answered ONLY with data or information.
I am attaching a page with information that you can use to help answer the questions. Also, feel free to use the resources I attach and your resources.
