Dissertation
methodology chapter is the most difficult chapter of
all. This is the reason why the student must be fully aware of the
dissertation writing structure and the key elements that contribute
to the success of a thesis. Many students do not know the main
elements and constituents of this section and end up making
unforgivable blunders.
This section is basically written to justify the choice of research
method you have made, an explanation of the method and how you have
employed its tools in your research and writing. The reader must
get the idea that you know what you have written and you are sure.
Also demonstrate that you are aware of the numerous opportunities
for collecting and analyzing data.
Therefore, if you want your research writing to be perfect,
consider the following very important points:
1.You must be aware of all the research methods and the tools and
techniques each one involves. This will let the reader know that
you have knowledge regarding investigation procedures and you have
made the right choice for your research work.
2.You cannot use all the procedures to collect the information that
will compose your dissertation. You will have to select any one
procedure. From the beginning of your investigation, make notes of
all the little and big steps. You will have to mention all the
steps here in this chapter.
3.The most important point of all, you must be sure that the method
that you have selected for the research on your topic is related to
your research field. You have to make sure that your assignment is
effective and efficient of the method that you have employed.
Qualitative and quantitative research methods:
There are two basic types of research methods. These are
qualitative and quantitative. It depends on your environment and
your subject which research method you will apply. In qualitative
methodology, you study the characteristics of the subject. The
conclusion of this type of data is normally based on numerical data
and statistics.
On the other hand, qualitative methodology deals with the tools of
collective interviews, debates and discussions, graphs, and
different types of tables to produce the composition on the
research question. The conclusion of this type of data is basically
based on graphs and what the public has to say.
Both the types of dissertation
methodologies are different from each other and are
equally important in different areas of research. Sometimes both of
the forms are applied together, and sometimes individually.
Efficient amount of data can found and collected using these two
methodologies, given that you understand each one properly and you
know how and where to apply them.
Readers are curious to know where you got your hands on this
information. To provide references and sources of information,
therefore, is very necessary. This is the main purpose of writing
this chapter, so that the reader can have valid proof of the
argument in the thesis.
