TOPIC: REMOTE LEARNING: The research proposal has to be about how remote learning affected me personally as a senior at mahopac high school and the rest of my classmates. in Mahopac High school. I, Michael A. Gonzalez, faced many challenges and learning opportunities in post-pandemic education. Also how it affected everyone in all walks of life.

Context

We have spent the last several weeks thinking about possible research topics and questions related to the community college and your local community. Now it is time for you to settle on a topic and question and submit a research proposal that explains your topic choice and outlines your research plan.

What is a Research Proposal?

A research proposal is exactly what it sounds like a proposal to do research. Just like you would carefully think through your reasons before you, say, buy a car or pursue a career, so too should you carefully think through your research topic and question before you propose to spend the next couple of weeks researching and writing about it.

Why a Research Proposal?

The goal of a research proposal is to convince readers that you have a basic understanding of your topic, that your topic and questions are broad enough for you to find information about but narrow enough for you to address in a research article, that you have clear goals for this project, and that you have a plan for how you will accomplish your goals.

What are the Components of a Research Proposal?

• Topic and Question. In this section you should identify your topic and question, demonstrate a general understanding of the topic, and articulate your goals for the project.
• Significance. In this section you should address the questions "So What? Who Cares?" Why does this topic/question matter to you? Why should it matter to anyone else?
• Plan. Familiarize yourself with the work ahead by reading the assignment schedule. Make a timeline. Identify important steps (for example, gathering sources, reading sources, composing drafts, revising) and, for each step, identify and list a completion date. In other words, create a detailed schedule so that you can manage this long and involved process. As you plan, be sure to account for other demands on your time, including other classes, work, and family obligations.
