Chapter 2: Methodology
3.1 Research Process
The research process that has been applied and used within current study comprises of the
identifying a problem and setting out of the objective that are based on the topic of innovative
digital workspace. After that, undertaking of the review of the literature is made to have a better
clarification and understanding of the topic along with defining and reviewing of the key terms and
concepts. Further, the next step within current project comprises of the setting of the research
method and developing the instrument to have an effective analysis and interpretation in order to
effectively meet the set objective (UZUNYAN, 2022).
3.2 Research Approach
This section of the research methodology tends to present the systematic plan for creation of
effective knowledge and understanding level. There are four main types of the research philosophy
comprising of the positivism, realism, interprivitism and pragmatism out of which the making use of
the positivism is seemed most appropriate. The reason and justification for making the use of the
positivism research philosophy is based on the fact that it supports and brings out a more systematic
as well as the practical way of undertaking the investigation to have more specific set of result.
Further, there are two main types of the research approach consists of the deductive and inductive
set of research approach from which making use of deductive is seemed suitable for current study.
The appropriateness behind making the use of the deductive approach is based on the fact that the
it effectively in line with the positivism philosophy as it also supports and brings out the better
testing and scanning of the facts.
3.3 Research Strategy
There are various types research strategy such as action research, survey, observation,
experiments, etc. which are used and applied by a researcher to effectively undertake the data
collection, analysis and interpretation. In accordance to the nature of the current study making use
of survey strategy is most suitable and appropriate as it supports a cost as well as a time efficient
way for collection of data from a larger set and number of [participants through making the use of
the questionnaire (Dojcanova, 2022).
3.4 Research Methodology and Tools
The most commonly used set of research methodology includes of the qualitative and
quantitative set of methods out of which the application and use of the qualitative method is more
complex and time consuming as it includes conducting an in-depth investigation. Thus, with respect
to the nature of the current study making use and application of quantitative methodology is more
appropriate that comprises of easy collection and presentation of data in numeric set.
Data collection- The collection of data within current project has been with the help of both
primary as well as secondary sources of data to ensure the ample and sufficient amount of
information to meet and achieve current objective. The collection of primary data would be made
with the help of questionnaire while secondary method comprises of the analysis of online set of
articles and journals.
