The document discusses key concepts in research methodology including variables, populations, samples, universes, assumptions, hypotheses, theories, and research objectives and questions. It outlines the research process from identifying a problem to drawing conclusions. Data collection tools discussed include questionnaires, interviews, and interview guides. Questionnaires allow collection of data from a large number of respondents and eliminate researcher bias while interviews allow an in-depth exchange of information between the researcher and interviewee.

Research Methodology
R: Rational Way of E: Expert and exhaustive S: Search for E: Exactness
thinking thinking solution A: Analyses R: Relationship of fact C: Critical H: Honesty and observation Hardship The research is a systematic process of identifying the search problems and collecting data by specific means. Analyzing it and reporting result. Research is systematic process of collecting, organizing, analyzing and decoding data in a meaningful way. Basic concept of research Variable: - The variable identity that change its properties for example: dependent and independent variable. Population: - The population includes main category of respondent who are requested for data collection for example: student, librarian etc. Sample: - A sample is the subset of population or part of the papulation. Sample also called find part of papulation Sampling is the process of selecting the group to use for data collection in your research. for example Universe: - The set of all experimental units from which a sample is to be collected is called the universe. The whole world is universe like librarian living in whole world Assumption: - It is a statement that is believe to be true. Assumption is a general feeling about a problem for example that everything in this world works under a certain system Hypothesis: - It is a temporary solution of a problem. Hypothesis is statistical tested in any case accepted or rejected. A hypothesis is an assumption that is made based on some proof. Theory: - It is a practicable, reasonable and solution to a problem. The theory comes from our thoughts in form of hypothesis and when hypotheses are tested and refined it is called theory. Research Methodology: - It is a complete research planned set of guidelines that are used to conduct research. It is list of research activities which are conducted during research. it is the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select, process, and analyze information about a topic. Source:-It is information that is shown for the first time or original materials on which other research is based. Research objectives: - these are part of research topic or tell us about goals of research. it Explain the goals of your research and the purpose behind the achievement of it. Research Question: - A Question that is asked for research purpose is known as research Question Research problem: - Problems have been focused for the research. a particular problem or knowledge gap that you're trying to solve Sources of research problems Interview Personal Experiences Data from the Theory General Viewpoint Relevant Literature s Research process Identification of research problem Carryout extensive literature review Selection of a proper research Development of Research objectives, Research Question, methodology Research Hypothesis Selection of population Selection of assembling technique Development of research instrument Collection data from the respondent Data analyzes Test the hypothesis Interpret the results May conclusion basic on the result Provide recommendation Provide future topic for the research Characteristic of Research Include all critical assumption Express objectivity Follow a complete methodology All finding should be presented without Baseness In-depth review of lecture Offers mathematical accuracy Applied appropriate smell Address the issues of reliability and validity Data should be collected and analyzed Result should be compared with previous research Statically masseur should be applied Conclusion should be drawn Apply high ethical standards Research implication highlight Research limitation and delimitations should be documented Data Collection tools in Research Methodology There are following tools are used for data collection in research methodology. questionnaires: - the form that includes a set of questions with their answers for the respondent for possible selection to obtain data Advantages of questionnaires i. A large part of data collection that is used by the researcher because it is easy to collect data form large number of respondent ii. The way in which the respondent can complete the question without presence of the researcher iii. Easy to understand the question raised in questionnaires and provide a suitable answer iv. Questioners provide suitable answer of the Question and eliminated researcher bias v. Bu using questionnaires it is always easy to provide the data as convenient schedule the respondent vi. Easy to share the link of the web generated questioners and gate the response from the respondent who are existing Infar fling area and difficult to reach them otherwise of the Interview: - the process of exchanging information between researcher and interviewer to discuss different issues with a professional on a particular topic in a conversation. It can be conducted face to face and through telecommunication media Interview guide: - An interview guide consists a list of question that are asked or discussed during interview process Conducting interview.
