Instructions

For this Signature Assignment, develop and present a quasi-proposal for your intended research or quantitative example that you have been working with for this course.

While the most important elements in any proposal are the fundamentals of the problem, purpose, and research questions, the bulk of the assignment will be the methodology. Organize your quasi-proposal for this assignment by subheadings. The actual headings and information that need to be included depend on the method used to collect the data. In studies involving the collection of primary data, you want to be sure to include the details of your sampling plan, measurement of variables, the actual data collection procedure, plan of analysis, and justification for your decisions.

  • Introduction
  • Statement of the Problem
  • Purpose Statement
  • Research Questions
  • Hypotheses
  • Null and Alternative for each research question
  • Methodology
