The research project should be appropriate for the available resources, time, and general level of knowledge and expertise of the students. As the project begins, students are required to develop personalized learning objectives, that describe what will be learned, specifically, from involvement in their research project. Research activities will include any of the following: literature review, project design, experimentation and/or data gathering, data analysis and reporting results in papers and other presentations
