Introducing the AP Research Proposal 2018 Form Review the completed Inquiry Proposal Form and consider the teacher suggestions to help a student improve his responses to the Image of Islam Proposal. Note how the teacher poses guiding questions, leaving the decision of how to act on the feedback to the student. Are there additional suggestions you would add for this student during peer-review? Be sure to add them in your workbook. 3
Effective Peer-Review Feedback 2018 In most cases, student proposals can be reworked into suitable issues for research. Remember to ask guiding questions and provide feedback to assist your peers. Suggested Questions Example Feedback Is this question too broad/narrow? This question seems to tackle a lot of issues. How could you reduce your focus to one or two important areas? Can the student complete the proposed research in 6 months? I admire your ambition here, but remember you only have six months to complete this work. Consider reducing your focus to one or two important areas. Is there sufficient data/resources available on this topic? Have you completed some high level research to determine if there are sufficient resources available for this research? Are there other research methods the student may consider? I see you have decided on a qualitative approach. Perhaps consider a mixed methods approach since you will be managing large amounts of data throughout your research. What are some ways the student can gain access to resources, materials, etc. for this research? Ms. Smith in the media center has done some work in this area. You may consider asking her for some direction on how to acquire specific resources. Are there other challenges the student may not have considered? 4 Remember , we have limited computer lab time. Can you arrange additional access to the needed technology and resources?
