Directions:

2. Background: This section is similar to an Introduction where you identify your topic and share some key literature findings. You will end this section describing the goals of your own study.

3. Research Questions: Provide your research questions (not the survey questions from your survey)

4. Methodology: Describe the sample, survey questions and procedure

5. Results: What analyses were conducted and what did they show (remain objective)?
