ARMPD- Lecture No. 16 (FYP part 4)

FYP Research Design part 2  (14/08/2012)

Today's lecture is a sub lecture of Research Design. If there is no critical evaluation and proper literature it doesn't fall under proper research. 

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHAT TO RESEARCH?

This is a question that every student should ask him/herself before stepping in to the Research area. You can find out what to research  based on your proposal which states the identified problems and  opportunities.

1. Systematic Investigation and study  - the research must be planned and properly conducted
2. To establish Facts -  This is all about how the researcher is gonna access the right sources it may be from primary or secondary research which i discussed in the previous lecture.
3. To Reach conclusions 

The Following are Types of Research

• Technical Research

  What is the scripting language, programming language your going to choose to implement your solution. However you need to present the critical evaluation. This is called Technical Research. This type can be conducted in two ways, either through primary research or through secondary research.

• Domain Research

• Academic Research 

It includes sources such as Books, Journal Articles, White papers, specialized and cited, Library resources and etc

The lecture was concluded as above which was a extension from the previous lecture of Research Design

Reflection of the Lecture

Today i learned how to find resources for the Research types(Primary and secondary) learnt in the previous lecture. The lecturer explained us how to conduct those types of research and he explained that before secondary research, primary research should be conducted to reap the maximum results from it. That is an important point which i learnt from today's lecture. Apart from the main types of Research 3 main Research types were explained which should be present in out FYP Namely (Technical, Domain and Academic).

These Research types should be implemented effectively in order to present a Successful FYP.
