Description
Write a research proposal. The proposal should consist of the standard parts of academic work like it was tought in the course (intro, literature review and theory, hypotheses, a proposed methodology, and what results you would hypothesize, in the end a discussion and conclusion is expected). You are not expected to collect and analyze any data, this is supposed to be purely based on the analysis of literature.
Develop a sensible research proposal and critically reflect on the standards discussed during the course. A bibliography is expected

General comment:
1. In the problem statement, you need to talk about the problem, explain why it is so important and show why we should care about it – with statistics and citations.
2. Despite the fact that LR is heavily cited, the paragraphs lack criticality. You should compare and contrast the idea, not simply provide citations at the end. Make your citations narrative.
Provide Gap in Literature paragraph at the end.
3. “The positivism philosophy shall guide this study because it’s a quantitative kind of research” – weak justification.
“The findings of this research shall also be mainly quantifiable and observable, which shall lead to statistical analyses. Since the knowledge gotten from this work shall stem from human experience, then the positivism philosophy serves the proper purpose for this work (Flick, 2006)” – redundant.
“The design has been chosen because it collects primary data regarding respondents’ opinions, habits, attitudes, and any other feature associated with social research (Marriam, 2009)” – weak justification as well.
“The study is a quantitative form of research” – it can’t be your limitation.
4. Check the quality.
there is a lot of inheritance – non-academic.
This can also lead to – do not start the sentences with This+verb structures.
it’s a quantitative kind – avoid contractions.
This philosophy is chosen because – enhance sentence structures.
