  3. INTRODUCTION In general, research methodology refers to a systematic way of solving a research problem and it is the process of studdinghowaresearchiscarriedoutsystematically (Snyder,2019). In the research, methodology is often noted to be an important section as it is can impress the readers most efficiently. The success and overall consistency of the study will be determinedbythemethodologychosenfortheresearch.

  4. Research methodology is often written using a model or structure that helps readersunderstand the process. Thefollowingstepswillexemplify how can a research methodology prepared to makethe reader more interesting

  5. STEP1:FOCUSONYOURAIMSANDOBJECTIVES First,whilewritingtheresearchmethodologychapter,ensurethatyourresearch choicesneeds tobe linkedwith the studyaims andobjectives. Methodologysectionshouldspecificallydemonstratewhyyourapproachesare appropriate for your goals and persuade the reader that you choose the right solution tosolvingyour researchproblemand addressingyourstudy questions. STEP 2: IDENTIFY RESEARCH METHODS THAT SUITS YOUR RESEARCH PROBLEM A good research method includes all of the elements necessary to persuade the readerthat theresearch inquestion isboth practical anduseful.

  6. Generally, quantitative and qualitative research methodsare the two types of researchmethodschosen forconductinga study(RektCapital, 2021).
