Now that you have a research question and Chapters 2 through 5, you are prepared to write Chapter 1, the project introduction. The purpose of the introduction is to explain and justify how you plan to answer the research question:

• Introduce the purpose and describe key features of Chapters 2 through 5.
  • Remember, to meet this goal, you must begin with a description of the research problem and how the research problem led to the current research question.
• Include your research question in interrogative form, such as How do preschool teachers who recognize possible cognitive delay in their pupils describe their attempts to help parents help their children? 
• Summarize briefly what we know so far about the phenomena under investigation.
  • Describe what we need to know to advance the knowledge base.
• Address briefly the major themes identified in the literature review.
