Research Philosophy
Research philosophy is the way through which researcher collects, analyse and
interprets research data. Research philosophy is classified into four types which are
positivism, interpretivism, pragmatism and realism. In order to conduct the research analysis
in effective and efficient manner, it is important for the researcher to select appropriate
research philosophy. In the present research study, researcher will use positivism research
philosophy.
Research Approach
Discussion of research approach is essential in research study. It is plan consists of steps
from generating broad assumptions to describe the steps assimilated in data collection process. In
the present research study, researcher will use inductive research approach as inductive research
approach begins with analysing research questions and helps in attaining the aim and objective of
research study.
Research Design
Research design refers to the plan through which researcher attempts to answer research
questions. Description of research design is not mandatory in research study but it enhances the
effectiveness of research study. In the present research study, researcher will use exploratory
research design in order to explore the implications of emerging technologies used at Qbic Hotel.
I confirm that the project is not work which has been or will be submitted for another
qualification.
