How to do research,writing the research thesis and converting the research thesis in a research paper?

A) Research:

Step 1: Literature Review:

The question arises that how a proble !or research can be selected" #eep this thing in ind that ever$ thing in this world is a proble or has a proble " This will help $ou in selecting a %roble !or research" &e a good observer and be critical while reading or listening" These two qualities will help $ou is giving options !or research proble " 'ver$bod$ has an$ research proble in ind but it is hard to select one !or research" (hich proble to select, the answer lies in literature review" Rather than spending ti e on listening to usic or pla$ing ga es on internet, one ust loo) !or literature on the internet" This will guide the researcher about the data availabilit$ !or ever$ proble " Select the proble whose relevant data is available on the internet" '"g" (hen * started $ research on +SR, * was con!used about it" * had an$ proble s in ind li)e +SR, ,ission and -ision State ent etc but it was a!ter review o! literature that in!or ed e that +SR or ,ission and -ision are not actuall$ proble s" The$ are areas within which * can point out proble s and their causes that will beco e a research" *t is wh$ * started to gather and read ore and ore literature on +SR" *t was the review o! literature that ade e understand that the title o! $ research is not +SR but it is .,easuring and Anal$/ing the prevalent level o! +SR in 0&% ,anage ent: A +ase stud$ o! %eshawar region.

Literature review starts be!ore the proble is selected and continues till the !inal de!ense o! the research but one ust )eep in ind the !ollowing points while reviewing literature" 1 Review literature regarding de!inition o! the research proble 1 Review literature regarding i portance o! the research proble 1 Review literature regarding bac)ground and histor$ o! the research proble 1 Review literature regarding current position or status o! the research proble 1 Review literature regarding ethodolog$

1 Review literature regarding international standards related to research proble 1 Review literature regarding tools that have been used previousl$ on the research proble

2nce the literature is reviewed, it beco es easier !or the researcher to identi!$ the !ollowing:

1 (hat actuall$ the proble

is

1 (hat are the i portant variables 1 How can the proble be tested

1 (hat new can be added to the research proble

*! the researcher reviews qualit$ literature than selecting the right aterial !or research and selection o! qualit$ tools !or testing the aterial beco es ver$ eas$" Researcher now will have to select the population and sa ple on who the research will be conducted and how the data will be collected !ro the " A!ter that, )eeping in ind the data t$pe that will be selected, researcher selects the data anal$sis and data presentation tools"

Step 3: Research %roposal:

2nce it is decided that what is to be done and how now its ti e to put all this on a paper using a certain pattern" This activit$ o! researcher results in a Research %roposal" All this is done to ta)e proper legal approval !or conducting research on the proble selected" Research proposal pattern varies !ro research to research, however the pattern below is usuall$ used:

1Title %age: *t includes the title o! research, na e o! researcher, na e o! supervisor4s), universit$ Logo etc" 1,ain &od$ o! %roposal: 11111Title o!

Step 9: Research %roposal * ple entation:6oing Research:

*n this step data is collection !or the sa ple and anal$/ed as per the guidelines given in the research proposal" 2nce it is done the second phase o! the research starts i"e thesis writing"

&) Research Thesis:

Step 1: *nitial %ages:

*nitial pages o! a research thesis include the !ollowing:

1 Title %age 1 Table o! +ontents 1 Tables o! ;raphs, +harts, Tables etc

1 '<ecutive Su

ar$

Step 3: +hapteri/ation:

*n this step the chapteri/ation is done i"e" the research is divided into chapters where si ilar activities are grouped in chapters" ,ainl$ a research thesis consists o! the !ollowing research chapters:

1 *ntroduction: *n this chapter the research in introduced 1 Review o! Literature: *n this chapter Reviewed literature is pointed out 1 6ata 7 ,aterial: *n this chapter anal$sis o! data is ade along with interpretation

1 ,ethodolog$ 7 Anal$sis: Here the h$pothesis is:are tested 1 8indings 7 +onclusions: The results o! the research is 1 Reco endations: An$ action or suggestions are entioned here

entioned here

1 Re!erences: Re!erencing is giving here

Step 9: %leasure=is

+hec):

A!ter the thesis is co pleted, it is chec)ed !or pleasure=is " *! the thesis pass this chec) than it is read$ !or evaluation"

Step >: 'valuation:

Here !oreign or local evaluator chec) the thesis and evaluate it"

Step ?: %resentation:

This is the last step o! the Research Thesis (riting" Here the research is printed, &inded and than presentation o! research is ade and it is publicall$ de!ended"

Step @: %lace ent in Librar$:

A!ter the research is publicall$ de!ended the researcher is evaluated and given grades and the research thesis is )ept in librar$ !or public re!erence"

+) +onversion o! Research Thesis into Research %aper:

&e!ore converting the research thesis into a research paper, it is i portant to understand that research paper is a shorter version o! the research thesis" Research thesis is i portant !or acade ic purpose usuall$ written !or getting a degree etc while a research paper is a ore technical one and is used b$ researcher !or re!erencing or understanding" 8or conversion it is i portant that the researcher !irst understand the guidelines !or author o! the concerned 5ournal in which the paper is desired to be published" 2n the basis o! the ;uidelines !or author the research thesis is converted into a research paper and than published"
