PM600 1. Interactive Lesson 2.3 Self-Study My Quiz: A. What is a research problem/rationale? B. Explain what kind of research problem would require you take a quantitative approach? C. Explain what kind of research problem would require you take a qualitative approach? 2. Check Ss Annotated Bibliographies & paraphrasing. While not talking to a S they complete/review the interactive lesson & discuss the answers to the above questions. They should then move on to doing peer-review annotated bibliographies. When peer reviewing Students consider the following checklist: • Has the source been correctly cited? (Harvard or APA 7th Edition) • Has the student correctly structured their AB? (refer to examples from previous class). • Has the source been sufficiently summarised? • Has the student accurately paraphrased ideas from the source? • Has the student made any critical evaluative points about the source? • Has the student compared the source to other sources? Tip: use the criteria from the worksheets from the previous class. Reminder: Topic Title For your research aims, you can take parts of your research title to help you write your research aims. Just remember two important things: 1) the whole purpose of your research aims is to address the research problem you have identified, so make sure that your research aim clearly links to the research problem and 2) you should use critically evaluative verbs such as ‘analyse/ assess/evaluative/compare/critically evaluate/critically compare/ to examine’ etc. Next is your research questions (or just 1 question for the research proposal). Remember that you can essentially just reword your research aims into questions to form good research questions. An important thing to keep in mind when formulating research questions is whether your research questions directly help you to address the research aims. This is the whole point of research questions: to help you achieve your research aims and ultimately address the research problem. Please remember to 1) use critically evaluative words in your research questions; 2) word your research questions as ACTUAL questions and 3) to use question marks. Next is your choice in methodology. Remember that your methodological decisions are determined by your research aims. So, read over your research aims again to help you decide whether a) a secondary or primary approach would be more appropriate and b) whether a qualitative, quantitative or mixed-methods approach makes more sense. Ultimately, you want to choose the methodology that can best help you to a) achieve your research aims and b) answer your research questions. This process ultimately helps you to address the research problem you have identified A reminder about research Frameworks: To help you to make sure your research is suitably narrow, but not too narrow and that your research is critically evaluative NOT descriptive, you can consider which of the following frameworks you will use in your research. SELECT ONLY ONE. These frameworks all involve examining some form of relationship between two variables: 2. problem > solution 3. Cause > effect 4. Comparative 5. Assessing viability / feasibility / application of something specific Important note about frameworks: Whether you are assessing the extent to which a solution is viable, or the extent to which X has caused why, or comparing 2-3 things, or assessing viability/feasibility/application of something you MUST have a clear criteria for evaluation. For example: how will you measure whether a potential solution is effective? How will you determine whether X is actually the cause of Y? On what basis will you compare X, Y and Z? What criteria will you use to assess the viability/feasibility/application of X? An example of criteria: In assessing which of two algorithms is more efficient in the context of self-driving cars you could define and measure ‘efficient’ using the criteria: speed, duration and accuracy. Finally: You can narrow your research by focusing on examining your topic in a specific context, or with regards to a specific application or population. Example of context: racial discrimination in higher education Example of application: Use of the first language in the English classroom as a means of better facilitating deep learning of complex academic concepts. Example of population: Learning preferences of English-Italian bilinguals |
