Abstract -Summary and outline of main findings
Introduction
Outline scope of study and what background material will be discussed.
f. Literature Survey - Show how existing theories/research findings illuminate your
work.
g. Methodology - Explain approach taken and why particular methods and techniques
used. Describe procedures, size of samples, methods of selection, choice of variables
and controls, any tests of measurement etc.
h. Results -Present findings clearly. Use tables, charts, diagrams etc. if appropriate.
objective
concerned with observable, objective, measurable facts, physical characteristics and
the outside world
hypothesis indicated at beginning of research then tested through experiment
involves measurement and comparison of data at beginning and end of period

8. Research Methodology.
In this chapter a straightforward description is required of how you conducted the research. If
you used particular equipment, processes, or materials, method or tools you will need to be
clear and precise in how you describe them. The methodology section informs the reader
what overall research methodology you adopted and why and what research tools (or
methods) you adopted to gain and analyse your result. It also describes theparticipants
involved (how many/how they were selected/their characteristics etc). It is also an
opportunity for you to present an objective reflection on the limitations of the methodology
and methods used.This is important, as all research has its limitations and there is no shame
in admitting this; indeed, it will be expected of you.
9. Analysis Of Finding
This section presents analysis and discussions of the result, including implications,
consequences and issues raised. It will also compare and contrast results with previous
research findings, identified and discussed earlier in the Literature Review. The following
points should be kept in mind while analysing the research topic ,the research report
Every ending is a beginning. It is the end of your report, but, hopefully, the beginning of positive
contribution to knowledge or organisational change as a result of your work. This need not be on a
grand scale; some of the best project focus on affecting small but important changes within the
business concerned.
