A list of research ideas and options follow. Please use and/or adapt one of the following ideas.

Below you will find some examples of free programs you may use. Because programs that offer free or “lite” accounts frequently close or are bought out and new programs appear, make sure the programs listed are still available before including them in your proposal. Many of these programs allow you to upload PowerPoint slides and more easily add multimedia elements to them, so if you are most comfortable using PowerPoint, that is still an option.
