THE RESEARCH PROJECT OUTLINE

An outline is not a FORMAL RESEARCH WORK, it is only the previous step before doing a formal research, and it is only the plan before it.It has 4 parts

Part one. - Research problemPart two. - Theoretical frameworkPart three. - Methodological designPart four. - Administrative frame

WHAT IS A RESEARCH PROBLEM?A research problem is the situation that causes the researcher to feel apprehensive, confused and ill at ease. It is the demarcation of a problem area within a certain context involving the WHO or WHAT, the WHERE, the WHEN and the WHY of the problem situation.

Three sources usually contribute to problem identification. Own experience or the experience of othersScientific literature that you might read about certain

findings and notice that a certain field was not covered.Theories could be a third source

PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION OF THE DESTRUCTION OF THE OZONE LAYEROzone, scientifically speaking, is an unstable compound made up of three oxygen atoms. Its function is to filter the passage of a small part of the damaging ultraviolet radiation (UV-B), from the sun. On the surface of the earth in the stratosphere, there is located a layer formed by this compound. It is said that Earth is unique. It protects living beings from extensive damage from skin inflammation, conjunctivitis, to the defense system impairment and cancer also may affect normal plant growth, including imbalance in nature. Without their presence, UV light would destroy all life on earth. It has been shown that the hole in the ozone layer is closely related to the use of a chemical made by man, present in various commercial products for sale such as aerosols, paint, etc... This component is the chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Also known hydro chlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) replacements for previous reports, which are mainly used as refrigerants and blowing agents and which are less hazardous. Halons, which contain bromine, are also enemies of ozone. There is an international treaty: the 1987 Montreal Protocol, which commits the countries of the world to eliminate production and use of substances harmful to the ozone layer. It might be needed 20 years before ozone levels will improve considerably you can have a full recovery by the year 2050. The damage can result in deterioration of the ozone layer and therefore UV-B, are manifold, including: Promotes and initiates malignant skin cancer and nonmalignant, damages the immune system, so that people become vulnerable to the action of bacteria and viruses, cause eye damage, including cataracts, more severe sunburn and causes aging of the skin, increases the risk of allergic dermatitis and toxic activates certain bacterial and viral diseases , reduces crop yields, reduces the performance of the fishing industry, producing damage to materials and equipment to be outdoors.

PROBLEM FORMULATION

A mini essay has to be redacted, and the first step is to include THE HEAVIEST CAUSE,( the one we did not use before) and its incidence on the problem is considered as the research theme.The statement of the problem involves the demarcation and formulation of the problem, ie the WHO/WHAT, WHERE, WHEN, WHY. It usually includes the statement of the hypothesis.

It has to be delimited properly, so the research won’t take long

yes no

1 Is the problem of current interest? Will the research results

have social, educational or scientific value?

2 Will it be possible to apply the results in practice?

3 Does the research contribute to the science of education?

4 Will the research opt new problems and lead to further

research?

5 Is the research problem important? Will you be proud of the

result?

6 Is there enough scope left within the area of research (field of

research)?

7 Can you find an answer to the problem through research? Will

you be able to handle the research problem?

8 Will it be practically possible to undertake the research?

9 Will it be possible for another researcher to repeat the

research?

CHECKLIST FOR TESTING THE FEASIBILITY OF THE RESEARCH PROBLEM

8 Will it be practically possible to undertake the research?

9 Will it be possible for another researcher to repeat the

research?

10 Is the research free of any ethical problems and limitations?

11 Will it have any value?

12 Do you have the necessary knowledge and skills to do the

research? Are you qualified to undertake the research?

13 Is the problem important to you and are you motivated to

undertake the research?

14 Is the research viable in your situation? Do you have enough

time and energy to complete the project?

15 Do you have the necessary funds for the research?

16 Will you be able to complete the project within the time

available?

17 Do you have access to the administrative, statistic and

computer facilities the research necessitates?

RESEARCH JUSTIFICATION

Justifying an investigation is to explain the reasons for which you want to do that research.

The researcher has to know how to "sell the idea" of research to do, so you must accentuate the arguments on the benefits to be gained and practices that will be given to knowledge.

Practical implications theoretical value, methodological tools, you are going to use, you can also use a new model for obtaining and collecting information of the study subjects.

It should be stated in an essay form which you will explain the reasons for the research work, the benefits and beneficiaries; the use that the knowledge is going to have. Moreover, the following evaluation criteria about this work should be included: social relevance, academic or social convenience and practical implications.
