1. Get an idea. All of the following steps will base on your idea. Make sure it doesn 't break any rule or else you might get disqualified. You can search for it if you don 't have any idea.
2. Form a title. Usually titles are in a form of a question. This are examples. The question can start in how, does and many other.
Does temperature affect the growth of molds?
Does salt affect the density of water?
3. Research your idea. You have to know your idea more. You can do this by reading, surfing the Internet or discussing it. Knowing your idea more will help you construct your work.
4. Form a hypothesis. Hypothesis will be your prediction in the idea that you choose. You don 't need to research for this. You just have to

Chapter II
Review of Related Literature and Studies
Related Literature
The Related Literature are statements taken from science books, journals, magazines, newspapers and any documents from authorized scientists, Science experts or well-known Science agencies. These statements can support your study through their concepts, theories, principles and laws. Footnoting is important on this part.
Related Studies
The Related Studies are those researches which may be local and foreign studies who can attribute to your research or can support your investigation scientifically. Footnoting is also important on this part.
Chapter III
Methodology has several parts namely: the subject of the study, the procedure and the statistical treatment
1. The Subject of the Study
The Subject of the Study includes your population and the sample. It applies the sampling techniques to obtain a good sample of the study. Your sample should be valid and reliable.
2. The Procedure
The Procedure is the step by step and systematic process of doing your research. It includes the materials with right amount of measurements, the appropriate equipment to be used in doing the scientific investigation. It consists of several trials with control variables, independent variables and dependent variables. Gathering of data is essential in any kind of research. It is recommended to use control and
The first step is to locate and define the problem or desired research issue. The second step is to formulate a hypothesis and decide which method of hypothesis testing should be conducted such as exploratory research, descriptive research, or causal research. The third step is to collect data as primary of secondary such as surveys, observations or rely on other methods such as the census. The forth step is to
Lesson #1: Start with a simple idea based on what you know. Then, let it evolve.
nature of the research approach calls for a means of data collection and analysis of findings
Data collection methods- the researcher needs to pick how the information for this subject can be collected (observation, questionnaires, interviews) and so forth. Analysis and presentation of findings- the researcher needs to use reports and other information gathering it into one to present the hypothesis. Conclusion- what does the studies say about this topic, this is based on all the information that was gathered together to get the correct conclusion.
Collect all of the themes/categories and examine each one in detail. Consider if it fits and its relevance.
Begin with a thinking
Once you have picked you topic along with its three characteristics you are off to the next step which is coming up with your thesis.
My proposed method of analysis is to first research my research question and hypothesis thoroughly. The literature review will definitely point me in the right direction to getting all the material I need for that part. Next, I need to analyze the variable
The methods, which I can recall is that aim of the study, should be clearly stated. A control, which has a certain disease or receiving treatment, size and entire criteria should be noted. Moreover, there is a sample group who do not have the disease or not getting the treatment. Lastly, for this study quality of measurement and outcome of the study is also noted.
In terms to attach order in to research study four main objectives and aim were set.
The book recommends paying particular attention to what is said on online forums, as potential customers tend to share their pain points and latent need. Another recommendation is to learn to sketch, as a drawing can be worth a thousand words. Try drawing your idea, just for practice, and don’t be afraid of your
3. Create your interview or research questions. The questions should aim at portion of your question. This is particularly important if you plan to interview experts and/or research subjects.
In doing the research, the methodology must be appropriate so that the analysis findings could reach the objective. Research methodology proposed one procedure in order way to be follow to answer all the questions in the research that want to be made. Quoted by Denzin and Lincoln (1994), methodology is a process that related with research objective and data. In the others word, it is early research planning that include the research scope, data collection method, data collection process and data analysis method. For Ranjit (2005), methodology is one of crucial part in research, in order to ensure the research can be done in the systematic way Overall, this chapter will discuss on the research frame and the methodologies used in order to meet the research objectives. Research process been divided into three main parts there are preliminary research part, data collection and last one data analysis.
First of all. I learned research methods from the video lecture. That is the first time I've heard about a detailed explanation of research methods. I was really interested in it because it is very important for us. The higher education level we are, the more research we need to do. As what I've learned, research has seven methods. The first step called: “defining the problem”. That means at the really first time when we do research, we should know what we want to know via this research. We need to come up some research question in our mind. The second step called: “reviewing the literature”. In this step, we should read some previous studies which are related to our topic. The literature must be trustable, and for journals, peer review is the better choice. The third step called: ” forming a hypothesis”. This step tells us after we are familiar with the previous research, maybe we can form a hypothesis in our mind. Actually, I have a little question about this step. Is this hypothesis based on the gap in the previous? The fourth step is choosing a research design. This is a step that organizes our research method. We need to think about who is the participants, when and how well we collect data. The fifth step is collecting the data. This step is kind of do your research plan what you prepared in the fourth step. There are many ways we can choose to collect data. Such as questionnaires, online survey etc. Next step is analyzing the data. This step is kind of tell the readers our research results. For here, we should determine if our hypothesis was true, false, or inconclusive. Also how the result similar to your thought. The final step is drawing conclusions. I think this is the most important part because you
If you just sit down and start randomly thinking up ideas you may find yourself in an endless brainstorm session that will lead you nowhere. You may get lucky and have a eureka moment this way, but you are more likely to get frustrated or even give up on your dream. Rather than hoping for a solution to materialize out of thin air, it’s better to use a more systematic, methodical approach.
