“Language Barriers and Socioeconomic Impacts on Reading Literacy: An Analysis of PISA 2022 Data in Paraguay”
Abstract
A concise summary of the study, including the main research question, methodology, key findings, and implications. Mention the unique context of Paraguay’s bilingual education system and the testing in Spanish.
Introduction
Explain what you will be doing for the assignment, and why? (must be justified) 
Background Information: Provide an overview of Paraguay’s education system, focusing on the bilingual policy of Guarani and Spanish.
Problem Statement: Discuss the issue of administering the PISA test solely in Spanish and its potential implications on students whose first language is Guarani.
Research Question and Hypothesis: Clearly state your hypothesis about how socioeconomic factors, region, school type, and the language of the test might affect reading literacy scores. Clearly spell out the research questions (RQ1, RQ2, etc). 
Significance of the Study: Explain the importance of this research for educational policy and bilingual education strategies in Paraguay.
Explain the technique used and why you chose that technique. 
Literature Review
Existing Research: Summarize previous findings on the impact of language in standardised testing, focusing on studies within bilingual contexts similar to Paraguay.
Theory Framework: Discuss theories related to language acquisition, literacy development, and the effects of socioeconomic status on educational outcomes.
Research Gap: Highlight the lack of studies that address the specific context of Paraguay in the realm of international standardized testing like PISA.
Some related empirical studies supporting your empirical questions (and possible from similar context: country or region).
Methodology
An equation with your main empirical formulation – answering your RQs.
The information on variables, covariates included.
Highlight, also, any possible limitations.
Data Source: Detail the specifics of the PISA 2022 dataset and its relevance to your study.
Participants: Describe the demographic information of the sample from Paraguay, including any relevant stratifications by region and school type.
Variables:
Independent Variables: Region (urban vs. rural), school type (private vs. public), SES indicators (parental education and occupation), and language (mother tongue vs. test language).
Dependent Variable: Reading literacy scores (numerical).
Analytical Methods: Outline the use of linear regression models to analyze the data, explaining how each variable is expected to interact with literacy scores.
Controls: Discuss how controlling for SES and language will help isolate the effects of region and school type.
Results
This is a key section as you will present the findings of your analysis. You can divide into 2 subsections.
Subsection 4.1 ⇝ Summary statistics → a table or plot where you present outcome by group behind your RQs.
Subsection 4.2 ⇝ MAIN table with estimations → where you show the association of X and Y under different specifications.
And importantly in this section you’ll clearly explain the results of the main table.
Descriptive Statistics: Provide an initial overview of the data in terms of distribution of scores, demographic characteristics, and primary language.
Regression Analysis: Present the findings from the linear regression models. Use tables and graphs to illustrate how different variables predict reading literacy scores.
Model Diagnostics: Assess the fit of the model and discuss any potential issues like multicollinearity or heteroscedasticity.
Discussion
Interpretation of Results: Discuss what the findings suggest about the impact of language, socioeconomic factors, and educational settings on literacy.
Comparison with Literature: Compare your results with previous studies and discuss any similarities or discrepancies.
Implications: Suggest practical implications for educational policy, particularly in terms of language use in standardized testing and resource allocation.
Limitations: Acknowledge any limitations in your study, such as potential biases or data constraints.
Conclusion
Summarize the main findings and their implications for educational policy and practice in Paraguay. Propose areas for future research that can build on your findings.
