培养良好的研究思路既是一门科学，也是一门艺术。教学生如何选择并概念化研究思路既需要工具，也需要实践。本文讨论了确定一个适当的研究问题，并将其细化为一个工作研究计划的格式，一个赠款建议。作者已经使用了一个赠款提案的发展，以证明老龄化政策和老龄化政策研究的理论模型之间的联系，在硕士水平的老龄化和公共政策课程。在这门课程中，学生选择，开发和完善研究声明，以回应独立基金会的提案请求。理论知识循环用于讨论这些学生如何随着时间的推移学习，以完善和重新制定他们的想法成为可行的研究问题。学生报告说，为一个真实的资助实体写作，使他们能够发展与研究问题和研究计划的建设熟练，并发展与老龄化政策的专业知识。
Developing good research ideas is both a science and an art. Teaching students how to select and then conceptualize the research idea requires both tools and practice. This paper discusses the identification of an appropriate research question and the refinement of it into a working research plan in the format of a grant proposal. The author has used the development of a grant proposal to demonstrate the linkages between theoretical models of aging policy and aging policy research in a master's level Aging and Public Policy Course. In this course students choose, develop, and refine a research statement in response to a request for proposal from an independent foundation. The theoretical knowledge cycle is used to discuss how these students learn over time to refine and reformulate their ideas into workable research questions. Students report that writing for a real funding entity allows them to develop both proficiency with the construction of a research question and research plan and develop expertise with aging policy.
