Learning Objectives
A preliminary survey
Case studies
Interviews with a small group of people
Observational survey
Step 2: Evaluate the Literature
Research design is the plan for achieving objectives and answering research
questions. It outlines how to get the relevant information. Its goal is to design
research to test hypotheses, address the research questions, and provide
decision-making insights.
Exploration and Surveys
Experiment
Data Analysis
Observation
Step 5: Describe Population
After completing these steps, the researcher must prepare a report detailing
his findings. The report must be carefully composed with the following in
mind:
The Layout: On the first page, the title, date, acknowledgments, and preface should be
on the report. A table of contents should be followed by a list of tables, graphs, and
charts if any.
Introduction: It should state the research’s purpose and methods. This section should
include the study’s scope and limits.
Step 8: The Report-writing
There are several factors that ensure a research problem is clear, well-defined
and easy to follow throughout the duration of a study. Some characteristics to
consider when aiming to define a research problem include:
Reflecting on issues or required knowledge in a particular field prior to conducting a study
Ensuring that the topic you aim to examine has a sufficient amount of relevant data
Relying on reputable evidence and data and disregarding information that you can't verify
Remaining practical, manageable and communicative with researchers involved in data
collection and analysis.
3 types of research problems
Objective
To provide better facilities and increase number of students to stay in GCST.
Problem
Continued decreasing profitability.
Research Question
How can GCST can increase the profit.
Sub-questions
What are the best thing that GCST can offer to the students to stay.
Finding the theoretical framework
The study can focus to increase profit and number of enrollees in GCST.
Benefits of a theoretical framework
