A simple four-minute video explains how to write research questions and hypotheses from "MsLemmonsClass." I assume this was written for high school kids (though I never saw anything like this in high school).
I like it. This really makes the task look a bit less daunting.
So basically, you take each individual research problem and find the independent and dependent variables.
Hypothesis:
The hypothesis is my prediction, my claim. It is what I think is going to happen based upon my prior information and my prior observations.
IF: If the IV does something (increases, decreases),
THEN: then DV is going to (increase, decrease)
BECAUSE: because ___________. Why do I think this? What led me to this claim or hypothesis?
This made writing the hypotheses fairly easy to do. Got them done in a couple hours.
