2. Statement of the Problem & Proposal Assertions or Assumptions of the Study Statement of the Thesis Background & Urgency of the Problem Insomnia is prevalent among AIU students. Stress, anxiety and worry gain from the day. Many assignments are required to do. AiU students fail to wake up early morning and tend to stay up all nights in the weekend. Insomnia can affect academic performance. Insomnia is prevalent among AIU students. Stress, anxiety and worry gain from the day. Many assignments are required to do. AiU students fail to wake up early morning and tend to stay up all nights in the weekend. Insomnia can affect academic performance. In three weeks, I will design an information poster with 7 pictures from the internet in English about 7 solutions to eliminate Insomnia for all AiU students (Medicine, 2007, para.1) who are not getting an adequate amount of sleep to follow and learn (Learning-Theories.com, 2007, para.1) to overcome insomnia (Geneseo, 2013, para.1) by at least 50% in two weeks.Medicine, 2007, para.1Learning-Theories.com, 2007, para.1Geneseo, 2013, para.1 In three weeks, I will design an information poster with 7 pictures from the internet in English about 7 solutions to eliminate Insomnia for all AiU students (Medicine, 2007, para.1) who are not getting an adequate amount of sleep to follow and learn (Learning-Theories.com, 2007, para.1) to overcome insomnia (Geneseo, 2013, para.1) by at least 50% in two weeks.Medicine, 2007, para.1Learning-Theories.com, 2007, para.1Geneseo, 2013, para.1 Pictures on a poster can support students to overcome insomnia by 50% in two weeks.

AiU students will be asked to do an online survey on insomnia assessment. 2. AiU students, who are suffering with insomnia and interested to join in the programme, will be invited to attend a programme meeting and register as participants. 3. A seven-solution guide is tested and revised with help of 6 participants in one week before a meeting. 4. Participants will be acquired a rubric to record the progress. 5. The poster is reproduced and posted on the announcement boards at the hostels as well as on the social networks. 5. A checking schedule, names of checkers and rewards are posted beside each poster. 6. Every three days, the checkers will come to participants’ room and evaluate the reduction of insomnia. 7. Rewards will be given for those who succeed to overcome insomnia by 50% before two weeks. 8. A personal rubric must be witnessed by the participants’ roommates. 9. A 3-day record of the checkers will measure the outcome of participants after following seven solutions on a poster. 1. AiU students will be asked to do an online survey on insomnia assessment. 2.
