1. From your early understanding of applied research, would you agree or disagree that it is difficult to be a highly effective teacher or principal without having a working knowledge of the research world and how it works? (Support your answer with the readings from this Unit, as well as knowledge from your own experiences.)
2. Jumping right into your research proposal, what topic would you like to explore, and why is this of interest to you or important for you to research?
3. List your two to three “applied research” questions that will guide your research proposal. (Remember that applied research questions must be bias-free, cannot make assumptions on the outcome, focus on solving a current educational problem involving students, and includes the intervention [strategy] that you plan to implement and study.)
