The purpose of this assignment is to develop learner's ability to write a scientific research proposal. This assignment comprises of two tasks. Task 1 is designed to develop learners ability to write a problem statement based on actual facts and figures on a specific research topic. Based on the research topic and problem statement, learners will learn to formulate the research questions and objectives. Task 2 is designed to develop learner's ability to write a literature review on the selected research topic and develop the conceptual framework, and finally write on the research methodology. Combination of these two tasks should produce a good research proposal.
