Research Journey
Turn what you learn in Units 1–5 into researchable ideas. Build, revise, compare, pause, or restart projects as your understanding develops—then hand one mature concept to Research Proposal Studio for real proposal development.

What is different here?
Not another quiz
This app does not write a finished proposal for you. It makes your thinking visible: the problem, concepts, possible explanations, intervention, evidence, uncertainties, and how your idea changes after each unit.
Research Journey: “What could research look like?”
Research Proposal Studio: “Now develop the selected project properly for real research.”

How to use this journey
One project or several—both are valid
Continue: deepen an existing idea after learning a new unit.
Explore: start a new idea when a later unit reveals a more interesting problem.
Compare: pause weaker ideas. Later select the project that has the strongest problem, theoretical basis, evidence plan, and feasibility.
Projects are formative learning work. “Readiness” shows whether important components are present; it does not automatically judge research quality.
