What do you have to do in research?
Understanding
the basics of research, and undergoing it may seem a daunting task to you. In
fact, many tend to misinterpret it. Here’s how you can take a gist on carrying
on research study without much hurdles. Also, you can improve many life skills
accordingly in the long term.
But Understanding some basic things are quite
important!!
·
The basic and foremost thing to
remember is the Purpose of Research!
|
|
A
Research Study is essentially detailed information of your Creative Ideas you
recommend based on what you have learned from many! |
The first step you take is to identify the loopholes
in the subject matter and then state what your objectives are. Your purpose of the
study should be crystal clear to you, the first! Only knowing the area of your
study does not justify your role as a researcher and may not prove efficient
considering your life skills.
·
The
primary thing you need to do while undergoing a research study is to study the findings of other researchers and
describe in your words concerning what have you found out.
|
An Ancient Ideology: ‘When you take data, ideas from one source you
commit plagiarism, But when you refer 25 you do a research.’ |
Eventually,
you may think that, while referring to 20-25 sources you have done your research,
which is not the actual responsibility of a researcher. Even if you are a student and tend to only do one project-based
research, still it is your responsibility to work on it and justify your
research by adding your ideas to it.
Take as many sources as you wish to take. More resources,
more variations on the topics you get, and also an eagle view of your topic can
be achieved!
·
Absorbing and evaluating the source material, try to infuse your idea!
After searching for reliable
sources for your study, it’s time to refine the data with your ideas and
knowledge. Write all the points (factors) that directly affect your study.
These points will act as variables of your study, and you can formulate a
problem based on those points too!
Consider your friends, relatives, parents, and teachers and try to talk to them on the consent matter. This will help you widen the scope of your study. Remember, it is completely okay if you do not have any idea of a certain topic, but by consulting the right source, resource persons, etc. you can develop, just a perfect outline of your study.
So to summon up!
You have to do three major steps:
- Always remember the
purpose of your study!
- Study what
others say about the topic, discover more and more sources.
- Infuse your very
own ideology.
Important Tip:
- Always read
related topic news, refreshed contents available online or on printed modes
available. The latest source you possess, more are the chances for you to criticize
the topic!
- Collect at least
20 sources (Research Papers) for your study up to 30 from different
resources, publishers, and categories of the same. More variety in your references
attracts sound knowledge and maybe just the perfect suggestion for your topic.
You can easily find any research paper, just find two or three papers online
and rest you can get links from the downloaded paper at the bottom portion
named ‘Bibliography’
- You can include
sources in form of reports, books, articles, periodical, statutory reports,
statements, etc.

patient reading!
