Handouts English III Top 20 Part 2
Research is a way of gaining knowledge and finding solutions. It involves empirical investigation and corrects mistakes by experts. Research provides background information when experience or intuition may be limited. The main purposes of research are to agree with others, prove opinions, and apply the scientific method to solve problems. Research in education aims to expand knowledge and solve educational issues. The basic types of research are basic research, which adds to existing knowledge, and applied research, which provides practical solutions. Research can be qualitative, which studies topics holistically, or quantitative, which uses numerical data and focuses on a few variables. Good research questions are significant, feasible, clear, investigate relationships, and ethical.
How does a scientists work
Scientists conduct research to solve problems, explain natural phenomena, and improve lives. Their process involves identifying a problem, gathering preliminary data, formulating a hypothesis, experimenting and analyzing data, testing the hypothesis, drawing conclusions, and verifying those conclusions by applying them to similar situations.

Experimental research design
This document defines experimental research design and discusses its purpose and function. An experimental research design is a blueprint that allows researchers to test hypotheses about relationships between independent and dependent variables. The main purposes of research design are to provide maximum relevant information to the problem being studied, maximize experimental variance while controlling extraneous variance and minimizing error variance to produce unambiguous results. A good research design answers research questions as objectively, validly and accurately as possible by suggesting how to collect data, control variables, manipulate variables and analyze results statistically.
Research design
There are two main functions of a research design: 1) To conceptualize an operational plan to undertake various procedures and tasks required to complete a study; and 2) To ensure these procedures are adequate to obtain valid, objective and accurate answers to research questions. Some common types of research design include action research, cohort design, cross-sectional design, descriptive design, exploratory design, longitudinal design, observational design, philosophical design, historical research design, case and field research design, descriptive or survey research design, correlation or prospective research design, and causal comparative or ex post facto research design. Each design has distinct purposes and approaches for collecting and analyzing data related to the research problem.
BAEB601 Chapter 1: Introduction to Research Methodology
This document defines key concepts in research methodology. It explains that research involves a systematic process of generating objective information to aid decisions. There are two types of research: basic research expands knowledge while applied research addresses specific problems. A theory is a set of principles used to explain relationships between variables, while a hypothesis is a testable proposition. The stages of research include introduction, literature review, methodology, findings and analysis, and conclusion chapters. A problem statement clearly defines the research problem and who is affected.
Threats to internal and external validity
1. Standardization of research conditions and obtaining detailed information about participants and procedures can help minimize threats to internal validity from various sources like history, instrumentation, selection, and mortality.
2. Choosing an appropriate research design like using a control group or avoiding pretests can further help control threats from history, maturation, testing, instrumentation, and regression.
3. Both internal and external validity are important to making accurate and confident interpretations and generalizations from research results. Various threats need to be addressed through study design and methodology.

WHAT IS RESEARCH REPORT WRITING
The document defines research and describes its key characteristics as being controlled, rigorous, systematic, valid and verifiable, and empirical. It outlines two main paradigms in research - positivism and naturalism. Positivism combines deductive logic and empirical methods to seek generalizable patterns, while naturalism assumes a social world can be accessed through senses. The document also describes the basic steps in conducting research as formulating a problem, designing a study, collecting and analyzing data, and reporting findings. Finally, it distinguishes between qualitative and quantitative research, with qualitative aiming to understand through description and quantitative aiming to explain through statistical analysis.

Assumption of qualitative research
- 1. GROUP ‘D’ (ROLL 25 - 32)
- 2. - Explains issues considering all the causes of occurance - It does not explains the single facts RESEARCH KEEPS HOLISTIC APPROACH
- 3. RESEARCH INCORPORATES EMERGENT DESIGN • Qualitative research can apply new research design while collecting design • Researcher can change design where necessary
- 4. • It explains the subject matter & process of participation • It is subjective in nature • Explains the events in macro level
- 5. CONCERNED WITH PROCESS RATHER THAN OUTCOMES • Emphasizes more to process that are used in the research • It considers more process than the result of the research
- 6. RESEARCH INVOLVES FIELD WORK • Researcher collects data himself contacting to the respondents personally. • Fieldwork increases accuracy.
- 7. PROCESS OF RESEARCH IS INDUCTIVE • Qualitative research doesnot formulate or test any hypothesis. • This work is totally based on researchers estimation & experience • Explains to the events so as to make them understandable
- 8. RESEARCH IS SUBJECTIVE • Qualitative researcher measures issue on the basis of researcher’s intuition • Mathematical & Statistical tools are not widely used in the qualitative research.
