Paper For Above instruction

The task involves identifying two dissertations from the ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Database available through the University Library that focus on the student's chosen research topic. Once these dissertations are located, the student is expected to review their research questions to understand how to formulate effective research inquiries for their own study. This process aids in understanding the structure, specificity, and framing of research questions within academic dissertations. After reviewing, the student must attach the dissertations as files or links, ensuring that their selection aligns with their research interests.

Furthermore, the student is required to articulate a clear purpose statement for their research, which encapsulates the primary aim and significance of their study. The purpose statement should be concise yet comprehensive enough to guide the research process. Along with this, the student must develop two research questions that are relevant and appropriate to their research purpose, ensuring they are specific, measurable, and aligned with the topic.

This activity not only familiarizes the student with how established research questions are framed within scholarly dissertations but also assists in honing their ability to craft precise and researchable questions. This foundational step is critical in designing a focused research study that contributes meaningfully to the field of study. Overall, this exercise enhances research acumen and prepares students for developing well-structured research proposals.
