School of Thought Alignment With Your Research Paper

For this week’s discussion, the task is to further explore the theoretical foundations that underlie your research topic. You started this in the past discussion, Application of Schools of Thought to Research, with a focus on the school of thought. For this week’s post, turn your attention to how the research topic is embedded in the context of your chosen school of thought.

Clearly demonstrate how your research project will use the values, principles, and methods of your chosen school of thought. Expand the discussion of the topic area to include questions that arise for you as you think about exploring this topic in research. Be sure the questions you wish to explore fit within the context of your chosen school of thought. For example, questions about measurement and comparison might fit a behaviorist model well, but would not align well with a humanistic model. Use this as a teaching opportunity to enlighten your peers about your area of interest. Be clear and specific in your writing.

Use at least two of the articles you intend to include in your bibliography to illustrate how your school of thought supports your research paper. You may also use the supplied articles from the syllabus to support your paper.
