Assignment task:
Upload your analytical research report proposal here.
In order to do well on the report proposal, you need to narrow down your topic sufficiently that you will be able to do targeted, specific research on the topic and get detailed results that can be applied to a specific industry or business sector. This may mean that you also need to learn more about a certain type of business, in order to start developing a better understanding of some of the impacts of the new development that you are exploring.
You will have to carry out some initial research to educate yourself about the topic and get a good idea of where you want to go with this topic. You need to explain your plan to your instructor in a way that is easy to understand, polished, and professional.
