This timeline will be hypothetical and approximate. The Data Collection Procedures section can follow this example:

 

Research Questions Data Collection Tool Why this tool? Justify its use in your study. How does it match with what you are attempting to find and to measure? Timeframe:

How and when data will be collected.

What are students’ perceived confidence levels with learning new math concepts through digital/virtual learning forums exclusively? One

pre-

assessment Likert survey

 

 Allows students to rate their level of perceived confidence with learning math concepts through digital or virtual learning forums as opposed to a live teacher. Provides multiple question types to gather wider breadth of potential student concerns. Phase 1:

Given for up to first three days of study depending upon attendance in the first 15 minutes of class-computer lab.

 

Written Communication

The assignment needs to adhere to the following areas for written communication.

 

  • Page Requirement (.5 points): The assignment must be four to six pages, not including title and references pages.
  • APA Formatting (.5 points): Use APA formatting consistently throughout.
  • Syntax and Mechanics (.5 points): Display meticulous comprehension and organization of syntax and mechanics, such as spelling and grammar. Your written work should contain no errors and be very easy to understand.
  • Source Requirement (.5 points): Use no less than two scholarly sources in addition to the course textbooks, providing compelling evidence to support ideas. All sources on the reference page need to be used and cited correctly within the body of the assignment.

Consider first, the written assignment from above.  Following the same outline, in a seperate document with less detail at this point, share your intervention plan with the class including:

  1. Your research question(s)
    • What do you want to answer in the study?
  2. A brief overview of your intervention and how students will benefit
    • This reinforces your identified problem.
  3. How you propose to implement it
    • How much time will it take and in what sequence?
  4. The ethical considerations you will address
    • “None” is not an option. There are always ethical considerations, some smaller/larger than others.
  5. How you plan on collecting data
    • Both quantitative and qualitative?
