Yang, Changwoo Documentation Masters Programs Student Research Graduate Students Research Proposals Library Education Writing (Composition) Statistical Analysis Research Design Rhetoric Courses Research Methodology Distance Education The authors examined abstracts written by graduate students for their research proposals as a requirement for a course in research methods in a distance learning MLIS program. The students learned under three instructional conditions that involved varying levels of access to worked examples created from abstracts representing research in the LIS field. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) detected significantly higher scores in areas related to fluency in describing the research design and the required elements of a research proposal in the groups with more exposure to worked examples, while the rhetorical skills necessary to compose a succinct abstract and to relate a proposal to implications in the field were not affected. |
