Research+Plan+(point+form)

I found some examples from: [] ** R__esearch Plan__:
 * This one is only 5 pages long and looks pretty professional:[[file:ex-plan.pdf]]

The purpose of research is to gain a better understanding of how mentors and beginning teachers can benefit from professional opportunities that are offered through induction.

__Methodology__

We have chosen to conduct interviews with each other to

The methodology will be threefold and involve: researcher as subject interviews, research about current induction programs in different districts and academic research.

__Limitations__

__Analysis of Data__

__Answering the research questions__

Analysis of data will allow us to see the patterns and trends of how districts support beginning teachers. Our goal is to make recommendations for administrators, schools and district for designing and implementing successful induction programs. We know that new teachers need to be supported in their first years of teaching. This may include formal or informal supports.

What method(s) do you plan to use to gather evidence? **.
 * Ethnographic approach
 * Conduct interviews
 * Analysis of values and patterns
 * Detailed description of a culture sharing group (educators)
 * Interviews
 * Research into district documents
 * Investigating into academic research
 * Why are you choosing this approach? **
 * Wanted to make finding more relevant, authentic and personally meaningful
 * To support our findings with lived experience
 * Use of district documents to better understand the resources that are available to new teachers
 * Practical and tangible evidence to our context
 * Use of academic research to support our investigation in how our systems are situated in current research
 * To enable ourselves to better support new teachers that we encounter
 * What are the limitations? **
 * Personal experience with induction (bias)
 * We are looking at secondary teachers because we are all secondary teachers (bias)
 * Time for research
 * Limited scope of sample under investigation
 * Methodology (who we are interviewing, how interviewing)
 * Vast amount of literature in the field of research
 * How will you sort and analyze the data? **
 * Code interviews and look for themes
 * Relate findings to district documentation and academic research
 * Interrogate your own experience against those described or promised in the literature
 * How will answer your research question? **
 * Through recommendations on design, implementation, evaluation of teacher induction programs
