Exploration into Different Phases of Research-Work

An exploration into different phases of research work is not a comprehensive study of the subject. Within the length of an essay, the problem of research has been introduced to the beginners : How do we choose a topic – is the first question. Where do we conduct the research? Is there any need to change the topic in consultation with the supervisor, DRC and other academic bodies? Abstracts are to be consulted. Bibliography; primary sources and secondary sources are to be explored. Reading and Writing should go together. Hypothesis, synopsis should be written. Outlines of research-work is to be prepared. Documentation–the MLA style sheet should be followed. These points are to be considered : language and style, grammar and spelling; originality puts life into the research-work. Plagiarism causes loss of value of work. Intellectual honesty is required. In viva-voce the right attitude should be there. Though the subject has been handled in a sketchy manner, I trust it will inspire the scholars to do good work with dedication, integrity and sincerity.
