Pilot’s safety measure

Pilot’s safety measure

My research topic is safety measure for the pilots.

Research problem is whether public’s thought of pilots who graduated university course or academy course is much safer than pilots from flying college.

here is the assessment instructions:

It should be a formal Research

Proposal set out under each of the headings described below. The proposal should

be no longer than 3,000 words (around 10 pages, double spaced, 12 point font), not

including References.

Literature Review

Search for and select journal articles that describe research studies or reviews

relevant to your chosen research problem. The number of articles reviewed will

depend on your research topic but is likely to be at least three to five for most

research problems. You will need to read each article, interpret it and develop an

argument that justifies and explains why you are asking your particular research

question. This section should end with a statement of your research aim and

research question as well as your hypotheses or expectations about the outcomes of

your study based on the literature review.

Proposed Methods and analysis

Describe the research methods you will undertake to answer your research question.

This section should be arranged in the following sections:

1. i) Study design

Describe your study in a few sentences. ie the “big picture”. This should include

the nature of your research design (eg., before-after, longitudinal, cross sectional

etc), what type of data being collected (eg., primary, secondary data or both), a

description of the variables you are measuring in the study and what type of

measurement scale for each variable you are measuring.

1. ii) Participants

Describe your proposed participants including the number you will include, gender

and age (eg., percentage male/female, age distribution) and any other relevant

characteristics for your research question (eg., experience, etc). Describe how

participants will be selected and recruited. Detail any ethical issues that might

arise from your study and how you will overcome them (eg., informed consent,

recruitment of volunteers etc.).

iii) Equipment or Apparatus used

Describe any equipment (eg., simulator, real plane) and/or materials (eg

questionnaires, structured interviews) you will use in the study to collect the data.

1. iv) Procedure

Describe the procedure you will use to conduct the study. This should include

everything you will do, step-b-step, to run the study. Try to be as clear and

complete as possible.

1. v) Analysis

Briefly describe how you will analyse the results of the study. This should include

the comparisons you will make and how you will make them, including what

statistical tests you will use (if relevant).

Expected results and interpretation of findings

This should be a short description of how you will interpret your findings depending

on what your results show. For example, if your results support your expected

findings, what will you conclude about your research question? What will you

conclude if the results are not as you expect?

References

List here all of the journal articles you used for your literature review, and any other

literature you cite in the Proposal. You may use any Referencing style, as discussed

in class, but your citations in the document and references must be in consistent

style throughout your Proposal.

Submission and assessment

The Research Proposal should be submitted through Moodle by 23:59hrs 21st

September 2018 (Week 9). A hard copy must also be submitted either to the

Aviation office by 5pm (17:00hrs) on 21st September 2018.
