No, the point of studying is that you need to learn how to do this yourself. This is at Masters level, so you should already have some of the core skills. If you dont you need to flag this with tutors. Remember research skills start from the design of a project not just in carrying it out and writing it.

Yeah, at Masters level I would expect a bit more than 13 threads asking people to outline your entire dissertation.

I’m sorry but you should not be using books at Masters level except for anything you simply can’t remember off the top of your head. Research comes from current papers (3-5 years old at most) and should never come from books, books should only be used when you are doing the FIRST year of your BSc when you are trying to kick the habit.

With regards to the methodology, hypothesis and research questions, ask your supervisor but the help given will be limited as, at the end, you are expected to do this research yourself.

You should not be referencing books in your dissertation at all. References should come from research papers, referencing books is a very big NO from anything from middle of first year onwards.

To not derail the OP, but you can absolutely reference books in research (academic, methodological manuals etc, obviously not opinion pieces). This is fairly common in a lot of fields and i myself regularly publish peer reviewed research with a number of references to seminal books in my field.

You are basically spamming the site with requests to support you cheating on your degree, and asking other people to do the work for you.

If you are doing a masters degree, then you should already know how to do this work, but here's a rough guide.

This topic ie hoe EFL learners learn, should have been mentioned in lectures. The reading list for those lectures or that module is a starting point. Read the books, check out the authors and research who talks about additional/informal sources of learning.

Use references in those references to expand your search. Take notes of what they say, who says it, on what page in which book etc so you can reference later.

You should be doing a research methods module - look at the notes form that and find out the other databases you can use to check for papers etc. You can start with Google/Google Scholar, but you should also advance onto more academic databases.

When you've read around, and got an idea of who is saying what about the subject, begin to create a theoretical structure. Get that checked out by your supervisor/tutor.

If that structure is OK, then begin the research process again, filling in the parts you've already investigated, but you will also have to do more research to fill in the gaps, counter-arguments, more evidence etc.

Research is not asking other people to make suggestions for you. You can ask advice about how (though the structure I've given above is much better explained in any half decent google search), but finding the actual authors, books, papers and formulating the research question/hypothesis, choosing the methodology, aims etc is part of your responsibility to formulate.

Ok, maybe it was just in my field (Biomedical Science) but I was always told to NEVER use books and to only use research journals published in the last 3 years (5 at most).

I'm not cheating and ask anyone to do my research i ask for help(advice. Some titles of books.or references can hellp.

That makes sense, and in general you are correct just a bit more nuanced as you progress through academia/research.

Greg

Sure.

Hi there! Your dissertation topic sounds really interesting, and exploring how non-educational English movies might impact EFL learners’ language skills is definitely a unique angle. Here are some ideas to help you get started with the structure, research questions, and a few resources that might be useful.
Suggested Structure

Introduction:

Start by introducing the idea of how movies can be beneficial for language learning, even if they’re not specifically educational. You could mention the role of exposure to natural language and cultural context.

Define terms like “non-educational movies” and “language proficiency” to make it clear what your study will focus on.

Research Questions and Hypothesis:

Example Research Questions: “How do EFL learners perceive the role of English-language movies in improving their language skills?” or “Which specific language skills (like vocabulary or listening) do students feel benefit the most?”

Hypothesis: You might explore a hypothesis like, “Non-educational English movies positively impact vocabulary acquisition and listening skills for EFL learners.”

Statement of the Problem:

This could discuss the gap in traditional EFL resources and how authentic media (like movies) can be a useful supplement for language learning outside the classroom.

Methodology:

10.

You might consider a case study approach, where you gather data from first-year EFL students using surveys or interviews to get their perceptions.

11.

A mixed-methods approach (combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews) could provide a well-rounded view.

12.

Aims of the Study:

13.

Your aims could include exploring how students feel about the role of movies in their language learning, and identifying which language skills are most affected by watching English movies.

You might also find studies on using authentic materials in language classes helpful for background research, and articles on multimedia in language learning can give you more insights too.

Good luck with the dissertation!
