What is research?
The systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions.
What is proposal?
A plan or suggestion, especially a formal or written one, put forward for consideration by others.
A research proposal “is a document that outlines how you propose to undertake your research studies” (Mouton 2001:p.44).
Definition of research proposal
A research proposal is a document written by a researcher that provides a detailed description of the proposed program,
It is like an outline of the entire research process that gives a reader a summary of the information discussed in a project.
Importance of research proposal
Helps examine what the researcher intends to do.
Research proposal can serve as a document of contract for the project.
Research proposals can be effective starting places to discuss projects with your professors, too.
The research proposal is able to give an overview of the research project so that other people understand the scope of the research, the significance of the research, as well as your proposed methodology and chosen research method.
Advantages of research proposal
Fund to support your research
Allow you to review and critically evaluate your current research program
Convince yourself and others that your research is worth supporting
Keep you focused on your research program
Develop novel ideas during writing proposal.
Relationship of research proposal with research
Research proposal is a plan, and research is action.
Research proposal is compulsory for approving proposed research.
Research proposal is a schedule and research is activity.
Research proposal is a mirror of research
Research proposal is a blue print of research.
Research proposal can serve as a document of contract for the project.
Types of research proposal
There are two major types of research proposal;
Academic:
• An academic proposal is the first step in producing a thesis or major project. Its intent is to convince a supervisor or academic committee that your topic and approach are sound,

BSC1005L Science---in---Action Report (up to 100 points)
Assignment idea adapted from Dr. Ron Gray, Northern Arizona University
All written reports will be graded by Ryan Coker, a course coordinator for BSC1005L, and must be turned in
through Canvas by the due date and time stated in the syllabus. Please consult with Ryan Coker
([email protected]) if you have any questions.
Rationale
Abstract ideas, such as some of the ones we discuss in this course, can often be clarified through examples. For
this optional assignment, you will read a book---length account of “science in action” – real people engaging in
the practices of science to generate new scientific knowledge. There are many books that are intended for a
public audience and provide a window into the thoughts, emotions, and motivations of scientists. This
optional assignment offers an additional challenge to synthesize supplemental reading and course objectives,
while delving further into some of the big ideas of biology.
This assignment is an analytical paper, not a book report. Your writing should clarify the reader’s
understanding of what scientists do, how science is done, and how new scientific knowledge is generated.
Assignment
Analyze two specific examples of science---in---action from the book you chose in response to the guiding
questions below and make explicit connections to what you have learned and experienced in BSC1005L. Choose
examples to demonstrate that you read the book completely; these should be the BEST examples of science---in---
action from the book and your analysis should provide evidence that these are appropriate examples.
Paper Guidelines
Include an introductory paragraph to orient the reader to the two examples of science---in---action you will analyze
and, briefly, how these examples illustrate science---in---action. For each example of science-in-action, you must
use specific evidence from both the book, and from the BSC1005L General Biology Laboratory Course (student
experiences engaging in science/scientific reasoning during lab and information from the lab manual) to support
your argument. Be sure that each of your two examples of science-in-action in your report, you address the guiding
questions (see following page) as part of your analysis. Include a concluding paragraph summarizing how the
book, as a whole and in the specific examples discussed, illustrated science---in---action and influenced your
perspective on what scientists do and how new scientific knowledge is generated.
The length of the report, not including references, MUST exceed 1700 words, depending on how concisely you
write. Failure to meet this word count will result in a “0” on the assignment. If you do not write concisely, expect to
have a much higher word count for a complete analysis. Your written report must be a cohesive analytic narrative
with clear transitions between paragraphs, and an overall analytic argument you are mak ...
IMRAD format
An acronym for Introduction – Method – Results – and – Discussion. The IMRaD format is a way of structuring a scientific article. It is often used in health care and the natural sciences. Unlike theses in the social sciences, the IMRaD format does not include a separate theory chapter

Abstract
Abstracts are research tools that can help you readers determine if the scope of your article/essay will help them in their own research. In APA, abstracts are typically 150-250 words in length and provide an evaluative summary of the essay to follow. The personal opinion of the author is strictly prohibited in abstracts. Unlike a body paragraph, the first line of an abstract is not tabbed-in. For many student essays, especially in lower-numbers courses, an abstract will not be required; still, it is good to practice this skill.

2. WHAT IS A THESIS?
The word “thesis”
has two meanings, both of which are applicable
to your writing.
the word refers to either a Master’s Thesis or a PhD
Thesis (dissertation).
“thesis” signals the fact that your thesis must be a
work of persuasive argumentation. You first make a
statement defining the focus of your research (the
problem/question/issue that needed to be solved)
and signal your results. Then, through evidence and
reasoning, you persuade your committee of the
validity of your research.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
3. In the process of telling that story, you must
answer, clearly and precisely, the following key
questions:
What problem/question/issue does your thesis focus on?
Why is it important?
How does your work fit into the intellectual context of your field?
What experimental design / methods did you use? Why did you
choose those methods? What difficulties did you encounter along the
way? How did you solve (or not) those difficulties?
What are your research results? How do they differ from what you
had expected or from what had previously been done by others?
What evidence do you have to support those results?
Whatconclusions did you reach?
What, specifically, is your unique contribution?
What are some possible applications, either practical or theoretical,
of your findings? What future work does your thesis suggest?

10. APPROVAL SHEET
This is to prove that the authors have passed
the requirements needed for the thesis.
This is signed by the thesis/FS adviser, panel
and the Dean.
This also states the grade obtained by the
author/s.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
13. ABSTRACT
An abstract presents a brief summary of your
thesis.
The aim of the abstract is to briefly provide the
reader with the most important information
from the entire text.
An abstract never contains new information.
This summary is no longer than 2 pages of A4.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
14. ABSTRACT
The abstract must summarize the contents of
the thesis, not merely say what it is about.
Write it last because you must have written the
Introduction and Conclusion before you can
summarize their main ideas in the Abstract.

This is the page for dedicating the thesis to
certain people or groups who have inspired
the researchers while doing the thesis.

23. TABLE OF CONTENTS
The table of contents is essentially a topic
outline of the thesis.
It is compiled by listing the headings in the
thesis down to whichever level you choose.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
26. LIST OF TABLES / LIST OF
FIGURES
Include a list of figures (illustrations) and a list
of tables if you have one or more items in
these categories.
Use a separate page for each list.
List the number, caption, and page number of
every figure and table in the body of the thesis.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
27. Figures, tables, illustrations...
what's the difference?
If you are doing a design or fine arts subject, it is likely that
you will include photographs, drawings, paintings or
illustrations in your dissertations. These would normally be
included in your List of illustrations.
In other subjects, it is common to include all tables, charts,
graphs, photographs, drawings, etc. together in a List of
figures.
However, if you have a great deal of information presented in
tables, it may be best to have a both a List of tables and a List
of figures (everything that's not a table). When labelling,
number these separately (Table 1, Table 2, Figure 1, Figure 2,
etc.).

INTRODUCTION
AND
BACKGROUND OF THE
STUDY
32. INTRODUCTION
The first chapter of your thesis is your
introduction.
This is where you provide an introduction to
the topic of your thesis: you give the context in
terms of content of the research project.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
33. This chapter provides an overview of the thesis
as a whole
it does not simply give background.
The first sentence should identify the problem and signal your
results.
Then move to a more detailed overview of problem,
importance, method, intellectual context, and your findings.
The last paragraph usually briefly lists what will be covered in
subsequent chapters. You can usually do it in one sentence per
chapter; try to vary the sentence style.
The Introduction is often short, perhaps some 10
pages.
Write it after you have written the body chapters and the
Conclusion so that you know just what you are introducing.

37. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE
STUDY
The significance of the study will mainly focus
on the question “Who will benefit from the
study?”.
This section will state the contribution of your
study and the usefulness of your study in the
society.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
38. Thesis statement
The thesis sentence is a clear, concise statement of the
position you will defend in your paper. The thesis sentence
should argue a position, not summarize information.
WHEN COMPOSING YOUR THESIS SENTENCE,
make sure your thesis reflects the full scope of your
argument
avoid using a thesis that is too broad to be defended in the
your paper or too narrow to be a full response to the
assignment.
argue as conceptually rich a position as you can support.
Ask yourself How? and Why? questions to deepen your thesis.
make sure your reader can easily identify your thesis
sentence.
do not just reword the professor’s question; claim your own
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
40. STATEMENT OF THE
PROBLEM
The problem must be reflected to your title or
the readers must know your problem by just
simply reading your topic.
The problem must not be answerable by yes
or no and must be arranged in the flow of your
documentation or study.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
43. Difference between thesis: statement
& hypothesis
A thesis statement and thesis hypothesis are different. Thus,
the latter is applied to support the ideas stated in thesis
statement.
So, a good research paper must have both thesis statement and
thesis hypothesis.
There are two major peculiarities concerning thesis
hypothesis. Firstly, a thesis hypothesis is an assumption that
you are going to prove in the paper. As any assumption it is
based on some statistic calculations. Secondly, it can be an
assumption of the writer’s ideas. It is based on the results that
were received during the research.
Thesis hypothesis is mainly applied, when the writer is required
to find out something new about the problem under
consideration. It is also used, if it is necessary to answer some
specific question. In all other cases it is possible to submit a
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
44. CONCEPTUAL
FRAMEWORK
A conceptual framework elaborates the research problem in relation to
relevant literature. This section may summarize the major (dependent and
independent) variables in your research. The framework may be
summarized in a schematic diagram that presents the major variables and
their hypothesized relationships. It should also cover the following:
•Existing research and its relevance for your topic
•Key ideas or constructs in your approach
•Identify and discuss the variables related to the problem.
•Conceptualized relationships between variables
Independent variables (presumed cause)
Dependent variables (presumed effect)
Intervening variables (other variables that influence the effect of the
independent variable)

47. SCOPE AND DELIMITATION
The scope is mainly the coverage of your
study and the Delimitation is the limitation of
your study or topic.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
49. DEFINITION OF TERMS
The definition of terms must be arranged in
alphabetically. It must be also stated if you
used your definition of terms in technically or
operationally.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
51. RELATED LITERATURE
In this part you must get your data and information from any
books, magazines, and news papers. You must label your
published material with local or foreign.
1. Must be also organized to cover specific problems.
2. Must take all the evidences about the problem with the
author’s experiences.
3. As much as possible, get the latest published materials.
Avoid old published materials.
4. It must be related to your topic. If not, do not get it.
5. On the last part of this part you must have a statement how
this old published material helps the researcher in their current
study and relate it to your study.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
52. RELATED STUDIES
In this part you must get your data and information from
unpublished material such as previous or old study, research or
thesis. In some format, you must label your unpublished material
with local or foreign.
1. This should be organized to cover the specific problems.
2. You must take note all of the evidences that the previous
researcher came up.
3. The unpublished material should not be older than 5 years if
possible.
4. It must be related to your topic. If not, do not get it.
5. On the last part of this part you must have a statement how this
old unpublished material helps the researcher in their current
study and relate it to your study. CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
55. The purpose of the methodology chapter is to give an
experienced investigator enough information to replicate the
study. Some advisors do not understand this and require
students to write what is, in effect, a textbook. A research
design is used to structure the research and to show how all
of the major parts of the research project, including the
sample, measures, and methods of assignment, work
together to address the central research questions in the
study.
The chapter should begin with a paragraph reiterating the
purpose of the study. The following subjects may or may not
be in the order required by a particular institution of higher
education, but all of the subjects constitute a defensible
methodology chapter.
METHODOLOGY
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
56. Appropriateness of the
Research Design
This section is optional in some institutions, but
required by others. Specify that the research for the
dissertation is experimental, quasi-experimental,
correlation, causal-comparative, quantitative,
qualitative, mixed methods, or another design. Be
specific. The designated approach should be defended
by contrasting and comparing it with alternate methods
and rejecting those that do not meet the needs of the
study.
This section should not be a textbook description of
various research designs, but a focused effort to match
a rational research design with the purpose of the studyCHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
57. RESEARCH DESIGN
The appropriate research design should be
specified and described.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
60. POPULATION AND
SAMPLES
Describe the population of interest and the
sampling of subjects used in the study.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
61. RESEARCH
INSTRUMENT
Describe the instrument and what it will
measure.
State qualifications of informants if used in the
study.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
62. VALIDATION PROCEDURE
Discuss how the validity and the reliability will
be established. Specify the level of reliability
(probability).
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
63. PROCEDURE
Fully describe how the data were when and how the data
are collected.
In a QUALITATIVE study, this is the section where most
of the appendices are itemized, starting with letters of
permission to conduct the study and letters of invitation to
participate with attached consent forms.
A paragraph must be inserted that states the study is
deemed to be one of minimal risk to participants and that
the probability and magnitude of harm or discomfort
anticipated in the research will not be greater than any
ordinarily encountered in daily life, or during the
performance of routine physical or psychological
examinations or tests. CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
65. DATA PROCESSING PROCEDURE
AND STATISTICAL TREATMENT
OF DATA
Describe the processing and treatment of data
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
66. Ethical Considerations
In a QUALITATIVE STUDY, the procedures for the protection of
human participants should be stated.
This section is nearly identical in all qualitative studies, which
makes it subject to identification as plagiarism when submitted to a
mechanical plagiarism tool.
Ethical concerns are important, particularly in reference to
planning, conducting, and evaluating research.
The study should present minimal risk to participants pertaining
to experimental treatment or exposure to physical or psychological
harm.
Care should be taken to ensure that the participants fully
understood the nature of the study and the fact that participation is
voluntary.
A statement should be made that confidentiality of recovered
data will be maintained at all times, and identification of
participants will not be available during or after the study.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
67. DATA PROCESSING &
ANALYSIS
In both QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE
STUDIES, the precise method of how the data were
processed and then analyzed is described.
Increasingly, in qualitative studies, data collection
and analysis is accomplished by using any one of
several data collection and analysis tools available
on the Internet such as SurveyMonkey.
Internet services are fast and accurate, and
produce data that can be quickly incorporated in
Chapter 4.

69. PRESENTATION OF
DATA
Present the findings of the study in the order of
the specific problem as stated in the statement
of the Problem.
Present the data in these forms:
Tabular
Textual
Graphical (optional)
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
70. ANALYSIS OF
DATA
Data may be analyzed quantitatively or
qualitatively depending on the level of
measurement and the number of dimensions and
variables of the study.
Analyze in depth to give meaning to the data
presented in the data presented in the table. Avoid
table reading.
State statistical descriptions in declarative
sentences, e.g. in the studies involving:
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
71. INTERPRETATION OF DATA
Establish interconnection between and among
data
Check for indicators whether hypothesis/es
is/are supported or not by findings.
Link the present findings with the previous
literature.
Use parallel observations with contemporary
events to give credence presented in the
introduction.
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
73. SUMMARY OF
FINDINGS
This describes the problem, research design,
and the findings (answer to the questions
raised). The recommended format is the
paragraph form instead of the enumeration
form.
For each of the problems, present:
The salient findings,
The results of the hypothesis tested
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
74. CONCLUSIONS
These are brief, generalized statements in answer to the
general and each of the specific sub-problems.
These contain generalized in relation to the population.
These are general inferences applicable to a wider and
similar population.
Flexibility is considered in making of conclusions. It is
not a must to state conclusions on a one-to-one
correspondence with the problems and the findings as
all variables can be subsume in one paragraph.
Conclusions may be used as generalizations from a
micro to a macro-level or vice versa (ZOOM LENS
approach).
CHELDY S. ELUMBA-PABLEO, MPA;LLB
75. RECOMMENDATIONS
They should be based on the findings and
conclusion of the study.
Recommendations may be specific or general
or both. They may include suggestions for
further studies.
They should be in non-technical language.
They should be feasible, workable, flexible,
doable, adaptable.
77. IMPORTANCE OF
FOOTNOTES
are notes placed at the bottom of a page. They cite
references or comment on a designated part of the text
above it.
DIFFERENCE: (FOOTNOTE & ENDNOTE)-appear at
the bottom of the relevant page, while endnotes all appear
at the end of your document. If you want your reader to
read your notes right away, footnotes are more likely to get
your reader's attention
