I have to write a research paper on something that has to do with my future career as a teacher. Any ideas?

Something that I can do primary research on (like surverys, questionaires, etc.). An example is "Are students motivated when asked to write?"





Preferably, something related to literacy. Any ideas?

You could break down the literacy rate between social class levels (of your country), and point out the discrepencies.


Do all children have equal opportunity for learning?


How does this compare to other countries with free education?


You can tie this in with your original question: Are student's motivated when asked to write? If you live in an area where you can visit a school within reasonable proximity of the varying class levels, you could get surveys and questionaires answered at the different schools. You could interview parents, teachers, administration,and the students. Good luck with this project.
Reply:What makes a reluctant reader? Why do certain children not like to read? You could look at reading levels of certain children compare it to how often they were read to at home. You could research a few factors to research the question.
Reply:i researched this topic for my master's project:





how does read-aloud (or reading stories to children) affect vocabulary acquisition?
Reply:For my undergrad psyc class I did a paper on the parents level of education and how it related to student success in the classroom (esp. English)
Reply:You could poll teachers of all grades or subjects about all kinds of issues. Get some veteran teachers and ask them how teaching has changed over the past 5, 10, etc. years. Ask how discipline has changed. Ask about different issues they face. Ask if they still teach the same subject/grade that they started out with. Ask if teaching gives them the rewards, either with security, money, emotional, etc. that they originally expected it to give. Ask them if that degree really prepared them for the teaching world and if not, what happened? Ask them if they had to do it all over again, would they? You could compare many, many issues or expand on certain related ones. this would be interesting and fun, I think! (It would probably be a lot different from the ordinary research paper the teacher will read. They usually go for the ones that are unique and original!)
Reply:What gets kid motivated? Does bribing help?


If you give something to a student will they give you something back? Phonetic reading/learning compared to visual learning (or what ever that other type is called) Hope I helped you some or at least not messed you up.lol
