theories.

4. Define research problem
• First of all the research problem should be find out which
the researcher want to solve.
• It can be solved by discussing it with colleagues.
• Take help from that person solving similar problems.

5. 2. Literature review
• Here a researcher see that either this problem is
previously discussed or not.
• If it is discussed then how can I make it different from
them.
• A brief summary of it should be written down while
submitting the research to the authorized committee.

6. 3. Formulate hypothesis
• Hypothesis is tentative assumption made in order to
draw out and testing logical consequence.
• Hypothesis should be very specific and limited to the
piece of research in hand because it has to be tested.
• The hypothesis keep the researcher on right track.

7. 4.Research design
• The purpose of the research design is to provide
relevant evidence with minimal expenditure of effort, time
and money.
• Things should be considered are;
• Cost of research
• Time
• Skills available

8. 5. Data collection
Primary data
• Which is collected by the
researcher himself.
• Examples
• Observation
• Personal interview
• Telephonic interview
Secondary data
• Which is collected by
other sources.
• Examples
• Books
• Library
• Internet
• etc

9. 6. Data analysis
• After collecting the data it should be analyzed so that it
becomes more useful in research.
• It can be done by:
• Editing
• Coding
• Tabulation
• etc.

10. 7. Report
• Finally the researcher has to prepare the report of what
has been done by him.
• Writing the report must be done with great care keeping
in mind the following points:
• The preliminary page.
• The main text
• The end matter
