Thanks for replying AustineBuzacott My supervisor explained to me over the phone and told me the headings that I need to include in the proposal. They are:
1. Research background
2. Need for the study
3. Purpose and aim of the study
4. Research questions
5. Review of the literature
6. Research design
7. Research problem
8. Structure of the thesis
I think this is the format, however I don’t have any example to refer to. I need to write a proposal of approximately 2.5 to 3 thousand words.
