The problem statement should include identification of what the problem is, who is affected, and how they are affected.\nBackground and Significance of Work\nThe background on the nature of the problem is described here, including other efforts to address the problem, the gaps in knowledge that remain, and the significance of this work in the larger field of knowledge.  Describe the findings of literature searches or information currently known.  Then indicate why the proposed work is significant as compared to other related research efforts.\nObjectives of the Study\nThe specific objectives of the project, which will address the problem, are stated here.  Make sure the objectives are clearly stated, measurable, reasonable and feasible.  In the Research tasks below (Section 5.0), indicate what will be measured and in what way the measurement will be accomplished.\nBenefits\nWith the accomplishment of the objectives, what will the specific benefits of this project be to ODOT and transportation in general?\nImplementation\nA more specific statement is made here on how the findings of the research will be disseminated, who will use them, and how they will be used.  Implementation includes activities designed to make the research results more accessible such as presentations, a paper or other summary document, video, Research Note, Inside ODOT article, internet presentation, etc.  The project work plan should include an implementation plan with sufficient detail to indicate the following:\nHow the findings of the research will be disseminated (e.g. written reports, journal articles, conference sessions, presentations, news releases, etc. for various audiences); and\nAny specific follow-on efforts to be undertaken to enhance the usability of the research findings (e.g., manuals, guides, workshops, video, etc.).\nWhere in the existing transportation governance structure will the responsibility be located for applying the research finding in the field or in the practice of transportation professionals\u0005.\nResearch Tasks\u0005\nEach of the specific tasks to be performed in the research project are described here.  The descriptions should be concise but provide a level of detail to show the current thinking of the research team.\nExamples of information that should be described in the Tasks include the following:  experiment design, types and number of specimens, tests and measurements, sampling methodology, data analysis methods, modeling approach, and significant or unique hardware and software development If the project is designed to be completed in phases, the organization of this section should reflect this, with the specific tasks listed under a heading ","cbCaibRPydPvobgT","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibRPydPvobgT","docx",62082,10,"English","# Identification\n## Organizations Sponsoring Research\n## Principal Investigator and Co-Principal Investigators\n## Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) Members\n## Research Coordinator and Project Champion\n# Problem Statement\n## Background and Significance of Work\n# Objectives of the Study\n# Benefits\n# Implementation\n# Research Tasks\n## Task #1\n## Expected Tasks","[{\"question\":\"What sections must be completed in the Research Project Work Plan template?\",\"answer\":\"The template includes identification of sponsoring organizations and investigators, problem statement, background and significance, objectives, benefits, implementation/dissemination, and research tasks with deliverables and approvals.\"},{\"question\":\"How are research tasks expected to be structured in this work plan?\",\"answer\":\"Each major task is numbered and includes description, time frame, responsible parties, cost estimates, deliverables, and TAC action, followed by ODOT action or decision.
