What I do are as follow:
1) Firstly, I will select a topic that interests me
2) Secondly, I read through background information
3) Thirdly, I start making a list of key words
4)Then, I write out my topic as a statement and select the main concepts
5) Finally, I start making a list of words to describe my topic
My topic of research proposal is:
Academic Internationalization: Attitudes towards English-Medium Instruction in Malaysian University
Below is the example of video regarding research proposal. I found it in Youtube. It provides a succinct introduction to the research proposal as it assists us in organizing and writing of our own research proposal introduction. At least, it offers us a clear picture to start our research proposal;-)
