Course Introduction
Welcome to the e-learning course,Research Methodology (RML921S). We hope that you will find studying RML921S via e-learning both enriching, enlightening, and exhilarating. RML921S aims to expose postgraduate students to the various advanced research methodologies, theories, designs, tools, principles and procedures so that they can write a comprehensive research proposal, review related literature, develop research tools, collect and analyse data, and present findings.
The major aim of the course is to expose postgraduate students to the various advanced research methodologies, theories, designs, tools, principles, and procedures so that they can write a comprehensive research proposal, review related literature, develop research tools, collect, and analyse data, and present findings. It also relates to the considerations that go into selecting research approaches that include amongst others, qualitative approach, quantitative approach, or mixed methods method approach. The philosophical worldviews, research designs, reviewing the literature, understanding the use of theory, anticipating ethical issues, and developing writing strategies will be covered in this course. We will discuss the process of research as it relates to each research approach. The process includes originating a researchable research topic; developing a research problem; writing an introduction, specifying a purpose statement, and developing research objectives; questions, and/or hypotheses. The course will also discuss the research methods and procedures for quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods studies. In addition, data analysis techniques, which include descriptive, inferential statistics, and qualitative will be explored. Ethical considerations will remain indispensable in this course.
