Some possibilities for suitable research projects could include but are far from limited to:

• A survey of about 30-40 participants (or more!) involving a hypothesis based on two or three variables;
• A content analysis of a TV episode or film, generally as a case study;
• A textual analysis of a TV episode or film, generally as a case study;
• A participant-observation of a significant speech/event, or interesting and influential group;
• Ethnographic interviews of a somewhat small (at least 10) group of people who are part of an interesting yet significant larger population;
• A case study??”applicable to a variety of methods, a single observation (or two or three) studied in depth as an example of a larger phenomenon or question. (An in-depth interview with a person can also be considered an ethnographic case study, although please justify the relevance of this particular person very well in your proposals!)
