LESSON 3 - ELEMENTS OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH: CONCEPTS, CONSTRUCTS AND VARIABLES

Do you know that every discipline has its own language? Research as a discipline has its language which is only understood by researchers. Language forms the building blocks of every discipline. In social science research, we call these building blocks, elements of scientific research. There are various elements. We shall discuss these elements in lesson 3, 6,7,8. In todays lesson, we are discussing three elements. These are Concepts, Constructs and Variables. Note that elements are not discussed in any order. However, the lessons will discuss the elements that are related in one lesson.

Doctor Lydia, I am new here. Well done! Please tell me about gap analysis

[@research-methods-class]

Thank you for your question and welcome to the research methods class. I have uploaded 79 lessons and I'm sure you will find them useful. Hope you have subscribed too. Gap analysis is an analysis of whether there is a need to conduct the research (Statement of need), analysis of knowledge gap (Statement of knowledge gap) and finally statement of the research problem from the perspective of the researcher based on the two

Hello Dr. I must say that you are indeed a great teacher. Your lessons are quite simple and concise. I was excited the first day I came across your channel and its rich content. If I had the opportunity of these lessons during my undergraduate days, no doubt I would have become a research expert by now. However, I'm going to get there soon. Currently, I'm writing my doctoral thesis, hence the relevance of these lessons to me cannot be underrated. Thank you so much. Regarding the textbook, I would love to get a hard copy of it. How do I get the book in Nigeria and how much is it and how long will it take to get to me. Cheers!!!

[@research-methods-class]

Hello Tony, thank you for the kind comments. I have 79 lessons which covers the research methods course. You can access all of them in one site by log in www/researchmethodsclass.com/research-methods-course/. For the book, i would recommend you get the ebook. I have not shipped a hand copy outside the country so im not able to estimate how much it would cost.

[@cjaytony9821]

@@research-methods-class
OK... Thanks for the quick response. May I know how much for the e-book and mode of payment

Please Dr. Is social science research related to research in education?

[@research-methods-class]

Education as a discipline is a social science. Is there any area in Education research that you would want a clarification on?

@@research-methods-class yes Dr. I'm an undergraduate in Early childhood education. Faculty of education. I want to know more about the research. Thank you Dr

@@etimbuknathan1397 Good morning Ethan. My channel is about teaching students research methods and more inclined to Social Science Research. Like i mentioned, Education is a social science therefore all that i teach in my channel will be helpful to you. However, if there is an area of my lesson (or what you did in class) that is not clear, feel free to ask the question
