1. Outline The outline should provide a brief outline of the final paper in the form of bullet points organized in 5 sub-headings that answer the following guiding questions with some detail (at least one paragraph per question). I highly recommend visiting the Research Resources module. Within that, you will find an extensive document called "How to Conduct Research Projects in EML Courses?" that I have created for your research and writing needs in this course and other courses in our program. Context 1. What is the societal context of choice (for example family, classroom, school, community, workplace) in your country or state of interest in which you are conducting your project? Introduction 1. What is the research question(s) guiding your study? 2. Based on what we have learned this semester, what is the significance of studying this language policy with regard to your trajectory in the MA in EML program (or another program of study) and personal work/interest? Methods 1. Describes how the project will be conducted (what is the context, why, and how) and/or (how the language policy data will be collected and analyzed). Literature Review 1. What areas of the literature have you reviewed? What are some of your preliminary findings? What else are you anticipating* to find? *Use your best "educated guess" in this section based on what you have read in the literature so far. Please note: your final paper has an additional section for the conclusion and implications for advocacy. Although it is not required to include the conclusion in your outline, you may do so if you have already formed your ideas for some early conclusions and implications. 2. Make sure your responses to the questions represent: Instruction & description of the context Evidence of critical thinking in self-reflection Representation of content learning Application of content learning to practice 3. References & APA Final Paper Collection of Literature (References) While you may not have gathered all of the literature at this point, keep in mind that in your final paper you are required to utilize ten relevant pieces of literature/sources in order to complete comprehensive, quality research of your policy and context of interest. This will consist of a minimum of five-seven resources that you locate on your own, including a maximum of two news articles, as well as resources provided within this course. For example, your resources may include: 3 relevant pieces of literature/sources provided within this course. 5 relevant pieces of literature/sources you locate during your research. 2 relevant news articles. APA Formatting Although the purpose of this activity is to organize your ideas for the final paper, please do your best to follow APA in formatting your outline and citing your sources. For help on using APA formatting, view this module. You can also visit the Purdue Online Writing Lab for additional guidance.
