Final ProposalFor a Grad School Data 711 Course on Qualitative Methods
Please make a main idea/thesis statement for something related to tech/sociology, choose a
sampling method (i.e Random sampling), the methodology you?d want to use (and why it?s the
best methodology), and include sample sizes if it?s applicable. The most important part of the
main idea/thesis is if it?s something that can be proven through a research project- you can have
full control on narrowing down the topic as long as it follows the instructions my professor listed
below; she wants the paper to be heavily written on the methodology and why it would be
effective in proving the main idea of the paper. Thank you so much! The final product for this
class is a 10 to 15-page research proposal for a qualitative or mixed methods research project.
You do not have to do this research project; only the proposal is required. The proposal will
follow the standard proposal format with one exception: The methods section will be expanded
and include extensive information on why you chose the research method you propose and why
you rejected others. A proposal, therefore, might have the following outline: pages 1 – 3,
presentation of the research question and motivating context (why we should care) pages 4- 5,
literature review page 6, proposed research design pages 7-10, discuss why you selected your
specific method (for example, ethnography). page 11, conclusion What about the research
question makes your chosen method best suited to answer it? Why did you not choose
quantitative methods (if you did not choose mixed methods)? If you chose mixed methods, what
do you expect each element (the quantitative and the qualitative) of your methodology to
address? Suppose you chose a single qualitative method (again, such as ethnography). What
about that method makes it better suited to answering your question than other qualitative
methods (such as content analysis or interviews)? In short, the core of your proposal is a
defense of your methodological choices.
