07 Jul Major Being Researched:
A research proposal considers your overall topic ideas, your research question, your research process, and your sources and scaffolds what the next steps will be for the project. Many disciplines require written proposals before an experiment can be run, before a presentation can be made, before a seminar paper can be written. Research proposals can vary in length depending on the scale and scope of the project at hand. However, in general, all share certain conventions: framing of the project or contextualization or putting the project in context or conversation with other research; a tentative thesis or claim or hypothesis; an approach or methodology; target audience; tentative sources or references. Depending on the academic discipline, a research proposal may include other required features.”

Major Being Researched:
Why did you pick this particular topic work to research?
Tentative thesis statement (please ensure the thesis statement is formatted with the phrase "I argue"):
What, if any, research have you already conducted on the proposed subject?
What question(s) do seek to answer in your research paper?
The purpose of this assignment is so I can help direct you in your thought process and research. The main focus for this assignment is going to be in the thesis statement. Without the thesis statement, I have no way of helping you with the direction of your writing. Please put a decent amount of time and effort into this assignment. You may want to write your submission on Microsoft Word and then copy/paste your response into the text box.
