research proposal draft

Met with Kelly to go over my proposal to University of the West. It is amazing how much time it takes to write something less than 3 pages. I teach a masters-level research class that includes literature review and proposal writing. It is a hard subject to teach and a hard thing to actually do. Teaching this class really has helped me in my writing and it is also the case here. I know the general components of a research proposal and I can do it. It just takes longer than I expected…

The biggest feedback from Kelly today - the project is huge based on my proposal – narrow it down if possible. I cannot have agreed more.. I wanted to narrow it but not sure how to narrow a qualitative research. I don’t want to limit myself to the point that I cannot be free to explore any emerging themes. But at the same time, I do not want to make this another dissertation work. I need to work very smart to produce publications quickly and productively.

Is desire always a bad thing?
