A scribble about research 

The technical aspect in a research project is the structure, the approach in attacking the ‘proverbial’ research question. The structure of the research question is deconstructed in the form of the research method of the problem at hand. The research method can utilise the quantitative survey for data collection, mapping out the magnitude of the research problem, or follow a qualitative approach via in depth interviews, focus group discussion or structured observation
Many research problems combine both approaches and triangulate the findings to make sense and meaning of the data collected.
