Description
This course introduces both research methods and research methodology. Research methods deal with those specific activities designed to generate data using questionnaires, interviews, focus groups, projective techniques, experiments, or/and observations. Research methodology covers the researcher's attitude, and strategy chosen to answer research questions. This course provides some answers to several research questions such as how a researcher defines research objectives in a clear and precise way, how he/she can perform a systematic literature review and avoid plagiarism, how data required can be collected in a systematic objective way, and how data should be analyzed in a rigor way to provide reliable answers to the research questions.
