Research can include:
- Pilot projects (e.g., a pilot project on a new technique for reducing drop-out rates for at-risk students in the public schools). That is, a time-limited, experimental initiative.
- Exploratory studies (an inductive approach where theory is developed from gathered data)
- Student independent studies, theses, or dissertations (theses are in the library and abstracts are placed on the web/dissertation abstracts for public display)
- Some demonstration activities (e.g., initiatives, projects, and or policies that demonstrate good practice, generate ideas, and contribute to policy development)
- Some public benefit/service programs (e.g., procedures for obtaining benefits or services under those programs; possible changes in those programs or procedures; or possible changes in methods or levels of payment for benefits or services under those programs, (45 CRF 46.101)
- Formal investigations
- Internet studies
