Statement of the Problem study
Statement of the Problem study
This assignment requires that you use what we have learned in class about the elements of research to produce a logical and sequential representation of a research plan in a short sentence outline form. The research topic you select should be aligned with the overall topic of first-generation college students. The template for your outline has been provided for you. Each slide has a major heading that focuses on each research plan component. The major headings are accompanied by subheadings that signal the main content areas where you will provide content to complete your research plan outline. You will complete a PowerPoint slide deck. You are not asked to provide a narrative or written term-style paper. Select a sub-topic that is aligned with first-generation college students and create a quantitative research outline that underscores the research topic you are proposing. Use the literature provided in u09a1 and the course text to support your statements. You should also use additional scholarly sources to support the topic you select to demonstrate a need for the study you are proposing. Leave in the headings and subheadings provided.
