Research Paper

I have already resumed my studies....moving into my 6th semester. Haha...as blind as the bats...I'm already in my 2nd year.

For this semester, I'll be taking four papers as usual.
Pendidikan Moral Tahun 1
English Phonetics and Phonology
Professional Ethics
School Based Research Project

For the latter paper, I'll need to produce a proposal to carry out a research project pertaining to my field and major @ Education and English as second language. And after weeks of 'fightings' within the wires in my lil brain ...ya ya ya..really squeeze my entire brain cells to THINK. Good practice. Finally, I managed to come up with a topic. I decided on a teaching methodology...Using songs. To do what ? Ya use songs as a tool to deal with what..? After glancing thru my students' textbooks and a thorough study on the syllabus....I decided to dealt with grammar. I think our Malaysian students are lacking of good English grammar. Which aspect of grammar....? Another big question.. When I flipped thru the grammar book...I noticed that 'verbs' seems interesting as many students often make errors at this area. The more mistakes they made, the better as i have more to report later on.

Using songs to deal with grammar @ more precisely 'Verb'. Therefore, I have chosen the title for my research paper,
'The effectiveness of songs in the teaching and learning of regular/irregular verbs to ESL pupils in a rural S.K school.'

For the next couple of days, I will have to do lots of readings, surfing and research. Need to collect input for my writings.

I have already completed the first chapter of my research paper this afternoon.

1.Introduction
2. Background of research problems
3. Statement of the problem

Will proceed to Chapter 2 tomorrow. Need to read up....

Frankly speaking, it's ain't easy. Anyone willing to lend a helping hand ? You're most welcome to contact me at annlim07@yahoo.com.
