Description/Paper Instructions
Investigation of the Effectual Instructional Method
OVERVIEW Following is a road map that briefly outlines the contents of an entire thesis for which you will model your final paper. Reminders
- Your paper must adhere to my requirements for final papers for my class. Any papers that are not formatted to my specifications will receive a failing grade.
- The entire paper must be APA formatted and double spaced (per APA specifications). See the APA guide I sent you for help.
- Your study may be qualitative, quantitative or a stand-alone comprehensive literature review. • If using quantitative data, you must also have the questionnaire and/or code book included in the Appendix.
You need do a research plan like this example.
Research Plan example
PLEASE NOTE: This is just an example or template to help you write your own plan. Do not copy.
Research Topic
Investigation of the Effectual Instructional Method in High
Research Question
What is an effective instructional method that could be used in the classroom environment to improve Mathematics scores of Grade 10 learners in NY.
Research Purpose.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether gamification or online methodologies are suitable for use as classroom instructional alternatives to a traditional pedagogy to improve Mathematics scores of Grade 10 learners in NY public schools?
Research Theory
Cognitive information processing theory.
The theory is based on the idea that humans’ processes information they receive, rather than just responding to stimuli. Cognitive information processing is used when the learner plays an active role in seeking ways to understand and process information that he receives and relate it to what is already known and stored within memory (Piaget,1970)
Hypothesis
Gamification is the effective classroom instructional method to positively improve Grade 10 learners’ Mathematics grades.
Variables
Independent Variables
Gamification, Online and Traditional groupings.
Data type: Categorical data (Nominal)
Dependent Variables:
Mathematics scores
Data Type: Continuous Data (Ratio)
Target Population
NY Public Schools from all districts.
Sampling Plan
Sample size – 30 participants Within group design (i.e. participants are related (same) in each group)
Cluster Random Sampling – These participants will be selected from all NY Districts using cluster random sampling method.
Research Design
Within Group Experimental Design
Short design Description
I am going to recruit 30 Grade 10 Mathematics learners from NY public schools using cluster random sampling as participants in this study. The participants will receive treatment of a classroom instructional method each week i.e. Gamification, Online and Traditional method respectively.
After each instructional exposure, the participants will be served with a standardized Mathematics test. In each iteration, the test administered will be different but the level of difficulty will not vary.

PAPER CHAPTERS ,
- Introduction(4pages)
Introduction requirement
Review Literature only from 2010 unless it is a landmark study (Only two Landmark studies before 2010 can be reviewed or cited).
You must review papers published in English
Review a minimum of 15 studies that are relevant to your topic and the core theory in your research.
Review at least two studies that are contradictory to each other.
Review only the work that is directly related to the hypotheses, core theories and, the topic.
Write a minimum of 3 pages but not more than 4 pages. (Introduction +/- 3 pages excluding reference pages).
Include the References.
Be sure to include all the content as was discussed in class: i.e. The importance of the study topic; Theories that your topic is based on; Background studies on the topic; Existing gaps on the topic in the body of knowledge; The gaps that going to be filled in by your research; Purpose statement and Hypotheses.
- Method and Results (10pages)
Research method requirement
Collect data
Perform reliability test on instruments used (If self-designed).
Write the Method section exactly as discussed in class. Remember to include subsections: Participants/Samples, Materials and Procedure.
Finally, write the Results section.
- Discussion (3pages)
This chapter synthesizes and discusses the results considering the study’s research questions, literature review, and conceptual framework. Finding patterns and themes is one result of analysis. Finding ambiguities and inconsistencies is another. Overall, this chapter offers the researcher an opportunity to reflect thoroughly on the study’s findings, and the practical and theoretical implications thereof. This chapter also presents a set of concluding statements and recommendations. Conclusions are assertions based on findings and must therefore be warranted by the findings. With respect to each finding, you are asking yourself, “Knowing what I now know, what conclusion can I draw?” Recommendations are the application of those conclusions. In other words, you are now saying to yourself, “Knowing what I now know to be true, I recommend that

Content (worth a maximum of 50% of the total points) |
Zero points: Student failed to submit the final paper. |
20 points out of 50: The essay illustrates poor understanding of the relevant material by failing to address or incorrectly addressing the relevant content; failing to identify or inaccurately explaining/defining key concepts/ideas; ignoring or incorrectly explaining key points/claims and the reasoning behind them; and/or incorrectly or inappropriately using terminology; and elements of the response are lacking. |
30 points out of 50: The essay illustrates a rudimentary understanding of the relevant material by mentioning but not full explaining the relevant content; identifying some of the key concepts/ideas though failing to fully or accurately explain many of them; using terminology, though sometimes inaccurately or inappropriately; and/or incorporating some key claims/points but failing to explain the reasoning behind them or doing so inaccurately. Elements of the required response may also be lacking. |
40 points out of 50: The essay illustrates solid understanding of the relevant material by correctly addressing most of the relevant content; identifying and explaining most of the key concepts/ideas; using correct terminology; explaining the reasoning behind most of the key points/claims; and/or where necessary or useful, substantiating some points with accurate examples. The answer is complete. |
50 points: The essay illustrates exemplary understanding of the relevant material by thoroughly and correctly addressing the relevant content; identifying and explaining all of the key concepts/ideas; using correct terminology explaining the reasoning behind key points/claims and substantiating, as necessary/useful, points with several accurate and illuminating examples.
