Section/Task Weighting Due Date
Individual research problem and
research question
10% 23:59hrs 18th August, 2017
(Week 4)
Research proposal 30% 23:59hrs 24rd September, 2017
(Week 9)
Seminar presentation 10% In class on 20th October, 2017
(Week 12) or 27th October, 2017

Topic
Develop a written proposal to conduct an aviation-related research project that is of
interest to you. You will then be required to make a short presentation to the class
that summarises your research proposal.
The Tasks Required
This Assessment involves three (3) sections or tasks which are described below.
1. Individual Research Problem and Research Question (10% total course mark)
Submit a brief description of the research problem and specific research question that
you have chosen to work on. This should be no longer than ONE PAGE (at least
1.5 spaced, 12 point font). You need:
– a Title,
– a section providing a clear argument for the aviation problem that you want
to address and,
– end with a clear statement of the aim of the project and the research question
you plan to address.
This should be submitted by 23:59hrs 18th August, 2017 (Week 4) through Moodle.
A hard copy must also be submitted either in class in Week 4 or to the Aviation
office by 5pm.
The Research Problem and Research Question will be assessed and marked and
feedback will be provided in-class in Week 5.

2. Research Proposal (30% of total course mark)
This is the major component of this Assessment. It should be a formal Research
Proposal set out under each of the headings described below. The proposal should
be no longer than 3,000 words (around 10 pages, double spaced, 12 point font), not
including References.
Literature Review
AVIA3710 Methods Aviation Research Proposal代写
Search for and select journal articles that describe research studies or reviews
relevant to your chosen research problem. The number of articles reviewed will
depend on your research topic, but is likely to be at least three to five for most
research problems. You will need to read each article, interpret it and develop an
argument that justifies and explains why you are asking your particular research
question. This section should end with a statement of your research aim and
research question as well as your hypotheses or expectations about the outcomes of
your study based on the literature review.
Proposed Methods and analysis
Describe the research methods you will undertake to answer your research question.
This section should be arranged in the following sections:
i) Study design
Describe your study in a few sentences. ie the “big picture”. This should include
the nature of your research design (eg., before-after, longitudinal, cross sectional
etc), what type of data being collected (eg., primary, secondary data or both), a
description of the variables you are measuring in the study and what type of
measurement scale for each variable you are measuring.
ii) Participants
Describe your proposed participants including the number you will include, gender
and age (eg., percentage male/female, age distribution) and any other relevant
characteristics for your research question (eg., experience, etc). Describe how
participants will be selected and recruited. Detail any ethical issues that might
arise from your study and how you will overcome them (eg., informed consent,
recruitment of volunteers etc.).
iii) Equipment or Apparatus used
Describe any equipment (eg simulator, real plane) and/or materials (eg
questionnaires, structured interviews) you will use in the study to collect the data.
iv) Procedure
Describe the procedure you will use to conduct the study. This should include
everything you will do, step-b-step, to run the study. Try to be as clear and
complete as possible.
v) Analysis
Briefly describe how you will analyse the results of the study. This should include
the comparisons you will make and how you will make them, including what
statistical tests you will use (if relevant).
Expected results and interpretation of findings
This should be a short description of how you will interpret your findings depending
on what your results show. For example, if your results support your expected
findings, what will you conclude about your research question? What will you
conclude if the results are not as you expect?
3
References
List here all of the journal articles you used for your literature review, and any other
literature you cite in the Proposal. You may use any Referencing style, as discussed
in class, but your citations in the document and references must be in consistent
style throughout your Proposal.
Submission and assessment
The Research Proposal should be submitted through Moodle by 23:59hrs 24rd
September, 2017 (end Week 9). A hard copy must also be submitted either in class
in Week 9 or to the Aviation office by 5pm (17:00hrs) on 22nd September, 2017.
Assessment of Research Proposals will be complete and results available through
Moodle by the end of Week 11 (13th October, 2017).
3. Seminar Presentation (10% of total course mark)
You will present a summary of your Research Proposal to the class in one of the last
two weeks of the Semester. You will be given a maximum of 5 minutes total
presentation time. This will include: 3 minutes maximum for presentation and
maximum of 2 minutes for questions.
Your presentation should include:
– a Title slide including the title of your Research proposal and your name
– up to three (3) additional slides showing details of your project sufficient for the
audience to understand what you are intending to do and why and how you will
interpret the results from your proposed study.
Allocation to presentation times will be by ballot. A presentation timetable will be
available on Moodle in Week 6.
Submission and assessment
Presentations will be assessed by the Course Coordinators. All members of the class
will also provide feedback and an overall grade on a five point scale for each
presentation. The average classmate mark will contribute 20 percent to the overall
mark for the presentation.
Assessment marks for the Seminar Presentation will be available by Moodle before
the AVIA3710 final examination.
Any Questions?
We will go through all requirements for this Assessment in detail in class in Week 1.
Please contact me in class or email if you have any further questions about this
Assessment.
