The Research Roadmap: A Primer To The Approach And Process

Abstract

Performing research can be an overwhelming and challenging endeavor. It’s easy to get confused just from collecting, reading and deciphering textbooks and journal articles. Getting organized and mapping out the entire process would be extremely helpful and more importantly provide a path for accomplishing the research project. This paper will provide a research roadmap that can be used as a guide for accomplishing a research project or a doctoral dissertation. It will discuss research methods, ethics in research, key components, and provide a comprehensive graphic that can be used as a guide to quick-start the research effort.
