For this assignment I'd like you to create a research proposal. This should focus on a communication behavior or issue you are curious about.  Even if you think it might be frivolous - that's ok.   Basically you'll find a problem - then come up with an idea of how you might use research to study it. This should be five pages minimum for the main body - and should include at least five properly cited sources.   When it comes to your sources they don't have to be just scholarly sources.  You can also conduct interviews.   The main point is that you are looking to see what is out there - which demonstrates that you are a thoughtful researcher. The structure will include an introduction, abstract, detail section, lit review (10 sources minimum) and reference page. In addition you will need to create an infographic.
