Description

Writing your first research proposal can be a daunting process. Where do you start? What should you include? Students often get stuck sitting in front of an empty screen not sure how to make sense of an overload of information. This course will help you to clarify the research proposal process and will break the process up into 8 days.

This course is ideal for students who are enrolled in an undergraduate research methodology unit or a student who would like to enroll for a post-graduate course (which requires a research proposal).

The course unpacks each section of the research proposal. With the help of worksheets and videos you will be able to write your introduction, problem statement, research question, aim and objectives as well as your literature review. In addition, the course will also look at the ethical consideration and research methodology sections of your proposal. On the last day of the course you will add all the separate components that you have worked on during the last 7 days together and will have your first draft of your research proposal.

'Writing your research proposal in 8 days' has been developed as result of a need for a course that will help students to clarify the research proposal process. Your facilitator for the course has supported many students through the research process and will be sharing insights from years of experience.
