BUSINESS RESEARCH 2
Introduction
This reflective report discusses some activities that were faced by me at the time of conducting
the research acts. There are initial stages that are considered by an individual named as
approval for topic, review of literatures, research methodology, Analysis of data, as well as,
conclusion section. Further, it also shows the positive as well as negative aspects of mine.
1. Topic Approval
Topic Identification
The topic determination is an initial step of mine. I determine the research topic for giving the
one way to meet aim as well as, objectives of study.
Problem definition
This study has deeply evaluated the issues of study to react at a reliable conclusion. I observed
that an individual should be worked on one topic due to maintaining the accuracy of the study
result (Neelankavil, 2015).
Research question
I observed that the research questions should be based on the concern that will be effective to
identify a way by which the researcher will solve the research concern.
Writing of topic approval submission
I took prior permission of my mentor before writing the topic approval for submission. I directly
meat to my mentor and take their approval regarding the topic due to maintaining the accuracy
of the research topic.
2. The literature review
Search process
In this section, I addressed that data that will be entailed for solving the research matter. I
considered different sources named Google scholars, online sites, books, articles, and lectures
notes. It can be significant to get the information towards research.
Summarising relevant articles
For summarizing the relevant articles, I read many articles by considering online and offline
sources. This is effective to comprehend the whole research in summarized form. This will direct
for obtaining positive outcome with respect to current issue.
Designing the outline of the literature review
The design of literature review is effective to comprehend information that has been covered in
the literature review. It will also support saving the time of the study. The outline could also offer
a suitable path to the investigator to perform the study (Easterby-Smith, et al., 2015).
Writing up the literature review
During writing the literature review, I decided many things for making a reliable conclusion. I
considered reliable articles for my study. I entailed different sources of literature review to meet
the research issue.
3. Research methodology
Discussions about methods
I increased my depth information regarding certain sources named as qualitative and, a
quantitative technique. It will also be beneficial to acquire valid information in favour of research
matter. I gained my knowledge towards certain approaches that is imperative in obtaining the
information of the research concern (Quinlan, et al., 2019).
Sampling
The sampling is imperative in choosing a feasible sample size to conduct investigation in an
effective manner. I gained my depth information towards the sampling tool for operating the
research in one direction. There are some tools that could be involved in sampling named as
probability as well as, non-probability sampling tool. I understood that the selection of a suitable
sample size could be affected by the overall quality of the research outcome. It will also
positively affect the outcome of research (Eriksson and Kovalainen, 2015).
