EDU 626 Week 1 DQ 1 Brainstorm

http://www.assignmentcloud.com/edu-626-ash/edu-626-week-1-dq-1-brainstorm

Brainstorm potential educational research topics that are of interest to you. What is a topic that will motivate you to want to explore it further? Try to focus in as much as possible. For example, if you are interested in education for gifted children, you may want to focus on the advantages/disadvantages of homogeneous grouping of gifted students. Why is it an exciting topic for you?

Q

EDU 626 Week 1 Research Topic

http://www.assignmentcloud.com/edu-626-ash/edu-626-week-1-research-topic

Once your research topic has been approved by your instructor, write a three- to five-page paper (excluding title and reference pages) and discuss what aspect(s) of your chosen topic interests you most. Write three research questions or hypotheses that correspond to the topic. You may use the questions/hypotheses you developed in this week’s second discussion if they pertain to the approved topic. Discuss the process by which you selected and formed your research questions and hypotheses and the challenges you experienced in writing them.

Make sure you identify how you applied the rules of educational research while developing your research topic. Include your assessment of the principal types of educational research and determine what type of research your topic will align with best.

Your paper must be formatted according to APA guidelines as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center and your approved APA style guide. Make sure to use at least two scholarly sources to support your application of educational research.

EDU 626 Week 6 Final Paper

http://www.assignmentcloud.com/edu-626-ash/edu-626-week-6-final-paper

Research Proposal Instructions

You will be creating a research proposal. This assignment will emulate the format of the example research proposal presented in the course textbook, Introduction to Educational Research. The Final Paper must be organized as follows:

a. Title page (formatted per APA guidelines as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center)
b. Abstract (a brief summary of your paper)
c. Introduction (clearly describe the purpose of your study and research questions/hypotheses)
d. Review of related literature (background)

§ This will be a written summary of the literature that you have found on your topic and how it is related to your research proposal. You may present differing views of the same information or complementary research that supports each finding. Research should be recent (no older than 5-8 years) unless it is a hallmark study in the field or more recent research is not available. You must provide references for your research formatted per APA style guidelines. Your textbook, as well as the Ashford Writing Center, provide guidance for writing a literature review.

e. Methodology (methods)
