Chapter 1- Introduction (3 pages)

In this section, present enough information about the proposed work so that the reader understands the general context or setting. It is also helpful to include a summary of how this document is organized.
In the research report, each chapter should begin on a new page

Introduction

This section introduces the reader to the structural content of your Research Report.

Problem Statement and Purpose of Research

In this section, present a concise statement of a research-worthy problem to be addressed (i.e., why the work should be undertaken - don't state "it was a requirement of the professor"). Follow the statement of the problem with a well-supported discussion of its scope and nature. The discussion of the problem should include: what the problem is, why it is a problem, how the problem evolved or developed, and the issues and events leading to the problem. Your problem statement must be clear, concise, to the point and able to be articulated in no more than three sentences.

Relevance and Significance

This section provides the necessary support for both the problem statement of your study. Consider the following questions and support your discussion by citing the research literature:

Question A. Why is there a problem? What groups or individuals are affected?

Question B. How far-ranging is the problem and how great is its impact? What's the benefit of solving the problem?

Question C. What has been tried without success to correct the situation? Why weren't those attempts successful?

Question D. What are the consequences of not solving the problem?

Question E. How does the goal of your study address the research problem and how will your proposed study offer promise as a resolution to the problem?

Question F. How will your research add to the knowledge base?

Question G. What is the potential for generalization of your results? What is the potential for original work?

Research Questions

In this section you will define the research questions you expect to answer in your finding / results / conclusion sections. The research question(s) must be directly related to the problem statement and introduce the reader to their respective relationships. The answers to the research question(s) as elaborated in Chapter 3 need to be either qualitative or quantitative. In this section, the research questions should be numbered

Barriers and Issues

In this section, identify how the problem is inherently difficult to solve. You should also show how the solution you propose are difficult to obtain (unlike a book report). You should show the study you propose is of adequate difficulty to warrant a successful grade assignment.
