Research design can be described as a general plan about what you will do to answer the research question.[1]
Research design can be divided into two groups: exploratory and conclusive. Exploratory research, according to its name merely aims to explore specific aspects of the research area and does not aim to provide final and conclusive answers to research questions. In exploratory research the researcher may even change the direction of the study to a certain extent, however not fundamentally, according to new evidences gained during the research process.
The following can be mentioned as examples with exploratory design as research findings are not final and conclusive evidences to research questions:
A study into advantages and disadvantages of various entry strategies to Chinese market
A critical analysis of argument of mandatory CSR for UK private sector organisations
A study into contradictions between CSR program and initiatives and business practices: a case study of Philip Morris USA
An investigation into the ways of customer relationship management in mobile marketing environment
Studies listed above do not aim to generate final and conclusive evidences to research questions. These studies merely aim to explore their respective research areas.
Conclusive research can be divided into two categories: descriptive and causal. Descriptive research design, as the name suggests, describes specific elements, causes, or phenomena in the research area.
Causal research design, on the other hand, is conducted to study cause-and-effect relationships.

Facilitating Quality Learning in a Personal Learning Environment through Educational Research
After speculation in the literature about the nature of possible Personal Learning Environments, research in the design and development of a PLE is now in progress. The researchers will report on the educational research involved in the National Research Council of Canada, Institute for Information Technology’s Personal Learning Environment project. This presentation will highlight important components, applications and tools in a PLE as identified through surveys of potential end users. The learner experience and the minimum set of components required to facilitate quality learning will be placed at the forefront.

1. Research
Process Phases
Research Methods and Design
RESEARCH METHODS IN DESIGN SEMINAR | BY JACLYN LE | KÖLN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF DESIGN | SUPERVISED BY PROFESSOR BRANDES | 2008
2. Phases of the Research Process
Define a clear, concise,
manageable, research/
design problem.
Every problem-solving effort must begin
with creating a representation for the
problem—a problem space in which the
search for the solution can take place.
– Herbert Simon, `Science of Design’
RESEARCH METHODS IN DESIGN SEMINAR | BY JACLYN LE | KÖLN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF DESIGN | SUPERVISED BY PROFESSOR BRANDES | 2008
3. Phases of the Research Process
Review relevant, pre-existing
research and literature.
What’s the purpose?
• To develop and frame the problem
• To relate findings to previous knowledge
and puts the study into perspective
• Proves basis for future research
• To avoid unintentional, unnecessary replication
RESEARCH METHODS IN DESIGN SEMINAR | BY JACLYN LE | KÖLN INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF DESIGN | SUPERVISED BY PROFESSOR BRANDES | 2008
4. Phases of the Research Process
Establish how you will
investigate the problem.
Identify research methods that will be used.
Exploratory research:
• It is the initial research undertaken
before conclusive research (Ie: Concept testing)
• Aids researcher in identifying best research
design and data collection method
• Often associated with qualitative research
(Ie: Focus groups, in-depth interviews,
prototype testing)

5. Phases of the Research Process
Conclusive research:
• Provides information leading to conclusions
• Associated with quantitative research
(Ie: Surveys, test markets, etc)
• Types of conclusive research:
• Descriptive: Limited to answering
‘what, who, where, and how?’
(Ie: Questionnaires, observation)
• Casual: Objective is to determine cause-
and-effect relationships
(Ie: Experimentation, test markets)

• Organize similar data into groups and label
• Look for patterns and relationships in data

• Suggest leads for future research
• Evaluate flaws in the research process
• Make recommendations based upon the results
