Research proposal: How to Write a Research ProposalM. A. Shahzad
Most students and beginning researchers do not fully understand what a research proposal means, nor do they understand its importance. To put it bluntly, one's research is only as a good as one's proposal. An ill-conceived proposal dooms the project even if it somehow gets through the Thesis Supervisory Committee. A high quality proposal, on the other hand, not/only promises success for the project, but also impresses your Thesis Committee about your potential as a researcher.
A research proposal is intended to convince others that you have a worthwhile research project and that you have the competence and the work-plan to complete it. Generally, a research proposal should contain all the key elements involved in the research process and include sufficient information for the readers to evaluate the proposed study.
Regardless of your research area and the methodology you choose, all research proposals must address the following questions: What you plan to accomplish, why you want to do it and how you are going to do it.
The proposal should have sufficient information to convince your readers that you have an important research idea, that you have a good grasp of the relevant literature and the major issues, and that your methodology is sound.
The quality of your research proposal depends not only on the quality of your proposed project, but also on the quality of your proposal writing. A good research project may run the risk of rejection simply because the proposal is poorly written. Therefore, it pays if your writing is coherent, clear and compelling.
This training focuses on proposal writing rather than on the development of research ideas.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. • Your dissertation, or research project, is probably the single
most important assignment you will undertake whilst at
university, and is often a key indicator of your true
capabilities as a student and researcher.
• A dissertation adheres to certain fundamental principles of
academic writing:
• It is a structured piece of writing that develops a clear line
of thought (an 'argument') in response to a central question
or proposition ('thesis').
• A dissertation is an extended piece of work, usually divided
into chapters, and containing a significantly more detailed
examination of your subject matter and evidence than is the
case for most essays.
3. • Because you usually have much more responsibility in
choosing your research topic, and for sourcing your
supporting materials, your dissertation provides evidence of
your ability to carry out highly independent study and
research.
• You are typically expected to be clear about the
methodology (investigative procedures and rules) you have
used to gather and evaluate your evidence. This aspect of
producing a dissertation has much greater emphasis than in
a typical essay.
• Those of you undertaking analysis of quantitative data must
similarly ensure that you adhere to the methodological
requirements expected within your academic discipline and
that you utilize the appropriate software. You must satisfy
yourself as to these requirements within your subject area.
4. Steps to writing good dissertation
• Proposing a Topic
• Theoretical Framework
• Literature Review
• Methodology
• Findings and discussions
• Readability
• Reference Format
• Further Reading
• Academic Research Desk
5. • Proposing a Topic
• Your choice of topic for research is likely to be influenced
by such factors as:
• relevance: its perceived relevance to the academic
department's in which you are studying;
• supervision: the availability of tutors/supervisors within the
department (s) who are interested in the topic and their
willingness to supervise such a dissertation;
• interest: your existing knowledge of that topic and the
strength of your desire to learn more about it;
• competence: your likely ability to employ the proposed
methods of data gathering and data analysis;
• scale: the feasibility of completing the study within the time
and resources available
6. • Using MORI to choose your topic
• Those of you that are expected to develop your own
proposal for a dissertation or project should try to follow
these four MORI principles:
• Manageable: your dissertation topic must be sufficiently
focused so that it is possible for you to do the topic justice
within the available word count. Any topic on which you
feel that you won't be able to cover it in any detail in the
space of 8 - 10 thousand words should not be chosen.
• Original: this relates to the above point, since a topic that is
focused and manageable is more likely to be one that has
not been written about too extensively, thus leaving room
for your original contribution.
7. • Relevant: your project should clearly be relevant to some
aspect of your studies, but it might also be relevant to your
plans for, say, postgraduate study or a career. The
dissertation may also be relevant in the sense that it plays to
some of your established strengths, such as a particular unit
or topic that you have enjoyed studying and in which you
have previously done well.
• Interesting: you are obviously more likely to enjoy and be
successful in your dissertation if it is of real interest to you
and to those marking your work. Ask yourself if you are
sufficiently committed to your idea to be able to give it your
best throughout the duration of your project. You should
also ascertain whether your supervisor finds the idea
interesting during your initial discussions with her or him.
8. • Theoretical Framework
• A theoretical framework often features as an early
section in a dissertation. In a theoretical framework
you would include an outline of existing theories
which are closely related to your research topic.
• You should make clear how your research relates to
existing theories. How are 'research questions' in the
field framed? How does your own research relate to
such framings?
• You should make your own theoretical assumptions
as explicit as possible. Later, your discussion of
methodology should be linked to this theoretical
framework.
9. • REVIEW OF LITERATURE
• This is a review of what is already known and of the main
themes or issues. It covers past research and studies and
articles from relevant journals, books, newspapers, etc.
• It is a summary of what other people have written and
published around the theme of your research. It is very
important that you acknowledge the authorship of other
people's work.
• The literature chapter can, and should be drafted very early.
As you find the literature, read it, and write about it.
• Think of the literature review as a patchwork quilt - made
up of paragraphs you have written about individual texts.
Highlight the findings that are relevant to your theses.
• Be critical of the literature - don't just report it.
10. • Methodology
• Methodology refers to the choice and use of particular strategies and
tools for data gathering and analysis.
• Some methodologies embrace both data gathering and analysis,
• data-gathering methodologies include interviews, questionnaires and
observation;
• data analysis methodologies include content analysis, discourse
analysis and statistical analysis.
• There are many varieties of each methodology and the specific
methodological tools you are adopting must be made explicit.
Interviews, for instance, are often categorized as 'structured', 'semistructured' or 'open-ended'. You should mention which other related
studies (cited in your literature review) have employed the same
methodology.
• The section on methodology should include a rationale for the choice
of methodology for data gathering and for data analysis. In the
rationale you should consider what alternative methodological tools
might have been employed (particularly those which related studies
have employed), together with their advantages and limitations for the
present purpose.
11. • Findings and Discussion
• The ways in which you report your 'findings' depend
heavily on the methodologies employed so it is difficult to
provide general guidelines here. However, it is important to
ensure that you go beyond basic description of your data
• Some notes on numeric data.
• Extensive tabular data is usually best confined to
appendices: select only the most important tabular data for
inclusion in the main body of your text.
• Avoid any reference to 'significant' findings unless you can
specify their statistical significance.
• Consider where it would be most useful to employ graphical
displays such as bar-charts or pie-charts rather than tables.
• Label tables as 'Table 1' [or whatever] and all other forms as
'Figure 1' [etc.].
• Remember to list these at the beginning of the dissertation.
12. • Readability
• It is important to make your text easily 'navigable' for the reader,
providing 'signposts' to help them to find their way about. If you have
been writing primarily to clarify your own thoughts (as many people
do) then as you get closer to presenting your writing to others you
must switch your focus to the convenience of the reader. It can help to
ask a friend to comment on a late draft because it is not always easy
for the writer to spot the problems which readers may have. If you
know who the reader(s) will be, then try to consider the ways in which
they are likely to react to the text. Can you anticipate any objections
which they might have? If so, then you need to revise your text to
address these.
• Your dissertation should ‘tell a story’ in the sense that you should ‘set
the scene’ (and grab the reader’s attention) at the start, then try to lead
the reader as smoothly as possible from point to point, working up to
some genuine conclusions at the end. Not many of us can write like
this at the first attempt, but a dissertation can be gradually edited into
this form. Check in particular that there are no sudden jumps from one
point to another.
13. • Include a contents page (some universities have
specific guidelines for the way in which this should
be done). Use subsections within each chapter (these
can usually be included in the contents page). After
the contents page include a list of figures and a list
of tables. It is customary to include an
'Acknowledgements' page: be sure to record your
thanks to all of those who have helped you.
• You should double-space your text and use generous
margins. Choose a font size of 12-13 points,
• You should avoid using too many quotations,
however: it may give the impression that you have
no ideas of your own and that you accept too
uncritically what others have said on the topic.
14. • The cardinal sin in academia is plagiarism, which
we may define as the presentation as one’s own of
ideas
• For students, there are very serious penalties for this
and it may be treated as an act of fraud.
15. • Reference Format
• The list of references should appear at the end of the
paper in alphabetical order as below.
• Name of the author [in reverse order], year of
publication, book title, edition, location of publisher,
publishing co. page no
• Agar, Michael H (1980): The Professional Stranger:
An Informal Introduction to Ethnography. New
York: Academic Press, pp. 112-130.
• Berger, Arthur A. (1991): Media Research
Techniques. Newbury Park, CA: Sage, pp. 25-46.
• Hammersley, Martyn & Paul Atkinson (1983):
Ethnography: Principles into Practice. London:
Routledge, pp. 246-315.
16. • Note : reference list:
• After the initial author, the names of co-authors are
not reversed
• Link co-authors with an (&) rather than 'and‘
• Use pp. only for chapters in books - not for journal
page numbers
• Include full names, where given, for authors
• Always provide both volume number and part
number for journal articles
• Where more than one reference is to a chapter in an
edited collection, list the collection as a separate
reference, ending the chapter reference with 'In
[Editor(s)] [Date], pp. [page-range]'

Chapter 1.
INTRODUCTION
(approx. 10% of total words)
'The context'. Why do this study? Why now? Why here? Why me? The aims of the
study.
Chapter one is very important and is possibly best compiled by answering a series
of questions as follows.
Is there a problem?
What is it?
Why does it need to be solved?
What is your hypothesis (hunch)?
Who will benefit from your investigation?
In what sense will they benefit?
In what sense will my contribution add to what is already known?
How in general terms are you going to solve the problem, e.g., collect data, analyze
data?
By what methods? E.g., a case study approach.
What are the constraints or limitations of the study?
A good way to end the introduction is to state the dissertation objectives.
18. Chapter 2.
