3. INTRODUCTION OF RESEARCH
An endeavour to discover new or collate
old facts etc. by the scientific study of a subject or by a
course of critical investigation.
The term research is derived from two word first is
RE= Means again and again, repeat.
SEARCH= Means To find out something new,
discovered, innovation
research depend on problem.

4. Research Diagrame

5. DEFINITION
“The systematic investigation into and study of
materials, sources, etc., in order to establish facts and
reach new conclusions”.
Oxford Concise Dictionary

6. What is Research Method

7. Historical
Its related to past to subscribe future
There are four major methods that researchers use to collect
historical data. These are archival data, secondary
sources, running records, and recollections. The archival
data, or primary sources, are typically the resources that
researchers rely most heavily on. Archival data includes
official documents and other items that would be found in
archives, museums, etc.

8. Cont…
Secondary sources are the works of other historians
who have written history.
Running records are ongoing series of statistical or
other sorts of data, such as census data, ship's
registries, property deeds, etc
. Finally recollections include sources such as
autobiographies, memoirs or diaries

9. Scientific method
• Scientific method give 100% result again and again and
truly data for accepted for result.
• Application of scientific method to the investigation
of relationships among natural phenomenon, or to solve a
medical or technical problem
Dr. S R Ranganthan Fathers of Library and Information
Science also Give a spiral Scientific of Methods.

10. Descriptive methods
.
Descriptive Methods mostly used that time because Its
Related to marketing, social and related with applied
Research They are many type but some impotence type
are as fellow

11. A). Survey
means over the head
• Surveys involve collecting information, usually
from fairly large groups of people, by means of
questionnaires but other techniques such as
interviews or telephoning may also be used. There
are different types of survey. The most
straightforward type (the “one shot survey”) is
administered to a sample of people at a set point in
time.

12. Cont...
Another type is the “before and after survey” which people
complete before a major event or experience and then again
afterwards.

13. B).Case Study
A case study is an exploration of a ‘bounded system’ …
over time through detailed, in-depth data collection
involving multiple sources of information rich in
context. This bounded system is bounded by time and
place, and it is the case being studied – a program, an
event, an activity, or individuals.

14. Cont…
• Case studies usually involve the detailed study of a
particular case (a person or small group). Various
methods of data collection and analysis are used but this
typically includes observation and interviews and may
involve consulting other people and personal or public
records. The researchers may be interested in a particular
phenomenon (e.g. coping with a diagnosis or a move into
residential care) and select one or more individuals in the
respective situation on whom to base their case
study/studies.

15. Cont...
Case studies have a very narrow focus which results in
detailed descriptive data which is unique to the case(s)
studied. Nevertheless, it can be useful in clinical settings
and may even challenge existing theories and practices in
other domains.

16. Experimental method
• People who take part in research involving
experiments might be asked to complete various
tests to measure their cognitive abilities (e.g. word
recall, attention, concentration, reasoning ability
etc.) usually verbally, on paper or by computer. The
results of different groups are then compared.
Participants should not be anxious about
performing well but simply do their best. The aim of
these tests is not to judge people or measure so-
called intelligence, but to look for links between
performance and other factors.

17. Cont...
If computers are used, this has to be done in such a way
that no previous knowledge of computers is necessary.
So people should not be put off by this either.

18. CONCLUSION
Select of Methodology & Methods Depends :
Research Questions
Research Goals
Researcher Skills
Time and Funds
And the end of chapter I want to sat that without
selection research methods you want to going to
wrong way.
