Hi guys,
i am doing my diploma through tafe and i am having trouble finding a question to research for my reseacch assignment.
these are the instruction i have been given and I'm finding it really hard to understand,
if anyone has any ideas or can help please comment!

Choose 1 from the following 10 early childhood topics as a basis for your research project
Sustainable practices
Children’s Play
Early childhood and the creative arts Supporting family wellbeing Pedagogical documentation
Early childhood curriculum Leadership management in early childhood
anti biased enviroments

Using technology with children Indigenous issues within early childhood education
If you wish to chosen an alternative topic, you must have this approved by your teacher before proceeding.
1. Identify and justify how your chosen topic links to the NQF – National Quality Framework
2. Annotated bibliography: Review of relevant literature - Find 5 to a maximum of 8 sources of information about your chosen research topic. These sources must be current, relevant (preferably Australian) and from reputable sources. eg. Government websites, academic papers and journals, published works and peak organisations.
For each source of information document;
• Author
• Title
• Publication details
• Summary of what is in the article (approximately 2 paragraphs)
• How might this support your topic (approximately 1 paragraph)
3. Identify stakeholders that you can survey about the topic. (Educators of a particular service or a no. of services, students studying early childhood, parents of a particular age group, directors).
• Your target group will need to be at least 15 people
• Provide a brief explanation about how you will conduct your research and the
resources needed.
