Just to let you know I did the reserach methods unit in 2005 and then was overseas last year. The proposal was around my work at Wodonga TAFE. Now that i no longer work there, it has become impossible to do. So I am looking for another concept around which to draft a proposal for completing in Semester 2, 2007.
I am strongly toying with the idea of a simple history of Australian policy on Offshore delivery of tertiary education programs. The data would be documents in the public domain and the method would be a simple document analysis.I have a strong interest in the area of off-shore delivery having spent nearly two years in off-shore TAFE programs.
I will spend this semester thinking through it and developing a written proposal
