“Putting Together Your Research Project” – Hesse-Biber
This article had new ideas to conduct this research
experiment that all seems practical and can be used throughout my process. I
had always through that the process of developing a topic and assessing the
topic was done sequentially, having to complete one stage before moving onto
the next.
I found it so interesting to conduct a literature review on
the topic before solidifying the research question. Often times, the questions
is created and then the researcher is reading articles, trying to fit the
findings in a way that supports their question. Reading on the topic beforehand
provides the reader with questions that they want to answer.
The key words, phrases, and definitions that are compiled
during the literature review process can be used to be the groundwork for your
research, as the author says, and I think it can be a great starting point for
creating the learning outcomes of your research.
Another tactic that I found to be very useful is reflexively
writing the ideas about the analysis and interpretation of the data during the
process. In past projects, I have waited until my full analysis is completed
before interpreting it into a discussion, reflecting back to the literature
review. This process makes things more cyclical and creates a better and fuller
understanding of the data.
