Its a brief description of writing of proposal of educational research. it would be useful for teachers in school who want to conduct a small scale research to solve the problem in their school. It would be also useful to give ur educational research proposal for funding
2. Introduction:
• This Activity will enable teachers to
identify problems in daily school
interactions and solve it in a systematic
way.

3. What is research ?
• Research is a studious inquiry or examination

4. What is Research?
• In a scientific method, first a person clarifies her
idea what she want to acquire. She reviews
previous studies and combines with its own
experience and defines the problems. Then she
collects the data from the informants and
subjects. After gathering the data she summaries
and analysis it and try to come on the particular
conclusion. Further she makes intervention as
per the findings to prove or to change the
conclusion and make the decision with proof. At
the end she does documentation of the
investigation that she carried out and
shares/submits or publishes.

5. Educational Research
• Educational Research is applied science.
When the research procedure is adapted to
solve the problems in education, to find out
facts in education, to answer the questions in
education is called educational research.
5www.sureshisave.in/
6. Action Research
• The research undertaken to find the solutions
of day to day academic issues is called action
research.
• The field of education often uses action
research, an interactive method of collecting
information that's used to explore topics of
teaching, curriculum development and
student behavior in the classroom.

8. Research Proposal
• A research proposal is a concise and coherent
summary of your proposed research.
• It sets out the central issues or questions that
you intend to address.
• It outlines the general area of study within
which your research falls, referring to the
current state of knowledge and any recent

reports, news related to the topic/
problem/issue that is selected for the study.
• Under achiever students : Concept, types,
theories, causes etc.
• Remedial program : nature and effectiveness
www.sureshisave.in/ 12
13. 2.Review of related literature
• Review of previous researches of DSM, M.Ed.,
M.Phil., Ph.D., research articles-papers.
• Review of books and articles related to the topic.
• Exact match is not possible, so it should be
related with any of the research variables –
e.g. Development of a remedial program for
under-achiever students of std 7th in Geography
Subject and testing its effectiveness.
www.sureshisave.in/ 13
14. 3.Need and Importance of the
research

the broader issue and how the study will help
to find the possible solutions.
• E.g. the present research will be helpful to
provide solutions for better achievement of
under achiever students.
www.sureshisave.in/ 14
15. 4.Title of the research
• Nature of the research, Population and
Variables should be mentioned in the title.
• It should be in title form and not statement
form, avoid verb in a title.
• Nature of the research (development),
Population (under achiever students of Std
7th) and Variables(Achievement and of the
remedial program )
www.sureshisave.in/ 15
16. 5.Statement of the Problem
• Statement is an extended form of the title.
e.g.- Development of activity based remedial
program for under-achiever students of std 7th
in Geography Subject to improve scores in
written exam and testing the effectiveness of
the program to improve achievement.
www.sureshisave.in/ 16
17. 6.Operational Definition
• Conceptual definitions are taken from
books/articles.
• Operational definitions of the terms, defines
the meaning of the terms in reference to the
research.
• e.g.- Geography subject – the subject
prescribed in Maharashtra State Board

of the research.
www.sureshisave.in/ 18
Find the
status
Development
of the
program
Pre-test
Implementation
of
intervention
Post-test
19. Objectives (Phases wise)
• To find out the status of the problem
( ..achievement of the students in Geography
..)
• To find out/determine/assess the nature of the
problem ( ..Geography achievement..)
• To develop program ( to improve ……………..)
• To test the effectiveness of the program
www.sureshisave.in/ 19
20. 8.Hypothesis
• Hypothesis – for quantitative study
(Experimental research)
• An hypothesis is a specific statement of
prediction of result of a study.
• It describes in concrete, rather than
theoretical, terms what researcher expects,
will be outcome of a study.
• Hypothesis is wise guess/ tentative
answer/expected result of a problem.
www.sureshisave.in/ 20
21. 8.Hypothesis
• Types of Hypothesis –
i) Research Hypothesis : Its is the expected
answer of the intervention.
e.g.-a)The achievement of the students in
Geography Subject will be increased after
implementation of remedial program.
b)The errors of the students in drawing
diagram will be reduced after a program.
www.sureshisave.in/ 21
22. 8.Hypothesis
• Types of Hypothesis –
i) Null Hypothesis : Null Hypothesis is made for
testing the effectiveness by using statistical
tools.
e.g. There will be no significant difference
between scores of students of Std. 7th in
pre-test and post-test with reference to
remedial program.
www.sureshisave.in/ 22
23. 8.Research Question
• Research Questions – Included in qualitative
study e.g. Survey

(Patil, 2007)
www.sureshisave.in/ 25
26. 10. Variables

done ( impact/effect/change)
• Achievement, attitude, learning style,
problems
• Independent – With which the impact will be
done ( treatment/intervention/Program)
• Remedial program, use of ICT, use of different
strategies)
www.sureshisave.in/ 26
28. 10.Variable

30. 12.Population and Sample
• Population – the results applicable to a
specific group of common characteristics

33www.sureshisave.in/
34. Descriptive Research
• What is the status of variables?
• A researcher may analyze the data that
he has collected and discovers that
different variables are correlated. It is
about finding the status of variable in
present situation.
• E.g.- Survey
34www.sureshisave.in/
35. Experimental Research
• Is the status of variables changeable?
• Experimental research provides the control
on the variable and give opportunity to
modify the variable in controlled situation.
Researcher establishes a systematic and
logical association between manipulated
factors and observed effects.
• Action Research is a type of Experimental
method.
