A research proposal is intended to convince others that you have a worthwhile research project and that you have a plan to complete it. First you'll need a title that will catch the reader's attention. Then you'll need to construct your abstract, or, a brief summary of your paper. Write the introduction and add source reviews. Explain your methods and demonstrate your knowledge. Predict your results and discuss the potential impact of those results. Writing a research proposal is not something to rush through!
