46
How you will gather data?
Primary Secondary Qualitative/Quantitative
47
Difference between Primary & Secondary Data
Primary Data - Real time data - sure about sources of data - help to give results/finding - costly and time consuming process - avoid biasness of response data - more flexible Secondary Data - Past data - not sure about of sources of data - refining the problem - cheap and no time consuming process - can not know in data biasness or not - less flexible
48
How to structure your concept paper?
1. The title page 2. Introduction and statement of the problem 3. value of the study 4. A preliminary literature review 5. state the research goals or objectives 6. Write down all the research 7. research hypothesis 8. state the methodology you intend the use 9. A timeline for completion of each statement of the research project 10. outline citations
49
You should begin with a title that fully summarizes what the project you are carrying out is about. Avoid being wordy and stick to the main point
The title page
50
This serves as the most important part of the concept paper. You must be seeking to add value and convince the reader that you are doing so.
Introduction and statement of the probem

A preliminary literature review
52
This is a broad statement or statements of what the research seeks to achieve. It should start with ‘to’ and answer the questions who, what, when, which, or how
state the research goals or objectives
53
These are important as they will direct you on every research area, for example, the type of data to collect and how to analyze it. Make sure you have exhausted all the questions for the research to be complete.
Write down all the research
54
stem from the research topic or the research questions and are, therefore, easy to draft
research hypothesis
55
states the ‘how’ of carrying out the research.
METHODOLOGY
56
Undertaking a research can take a very long time if not well planned for, and it is, therefore, important to lay out just how much time you may need to complete each element of the research project and ultimately the whole project. In this section, you need to set a time frame that is realistic.
A timeline for completion of each statement of the research project
57
They are a statement of the situation you anticipate based on some prior knowledge you have, even before you carry out the research
Research Hypothesis
