“Identifying the Inquiry and Stating the problem Part I.”

Research is not just a valuable tool in building a crucial knowledge, but it is also the most reliable
way to understand the complexities of various issues in our everyday living. Designing a research
project is just like making a blueprint of our dream houses. It always starts with the essential
questions that will be resulted to a better plan.

Choosing and Developing a Research Topic

The ability to develop a good research topic is an important skill. An instructor may assign you a
specific topic, but most often instructors require you to select your own topic of interest. When
deciding on a topic, there are a few things that you will need to do:

● brainstorm for ideas

● choose a topic that will enable you to read and understand the literature

● ensure that the topic is manageable, and that material is available

● make a list of key words

● be flexible

● define your topic as a focused research question

● research and read more about your topic

● formulate a thesis statement

Be aware that selecting a good topic may not be easy. It must be narrow and focused enough to be
interesting, yet broad enough to find adequate information. Before selecting your topic, make sure
you know what your final project should look like. Each class or instructor will likely require a
different format or style of research project.

Effective Research Title

Writing a research paper title may seem a simple task, but it requires some serious thought. It
might come as a surprise to most people that an author, having successfully written a detailed
account of his/her research study, experiences a block while attempting to title the research paper.
However, most authors, by virtue of possessing comprehensive details of the research paper, are
perplexed with regard to how to make their research paper title concise without sacrificing any
relevant elements.

Creswell (2014, p.26) compared the research title to “a major road sign in research.” He mentioned
that the title is “an orienting device” which aids the researcher in focusing one’s investigation.

In addition, it helps convey to others the central idea behind your own research.

Tips on Drafting a Research Title

Drafting a research title is a key task in research as this will capture the essence of what you wish
to do in your inquiry. A research title must:

1. list key variables

2. be written in scientific or technical style

3. be concise (no more than 12 words) and non-repetitive

4. reflect on context (circumstances or situations)

5. not explicitly provide reference to the research design

Writing Background of the Study

Background of the Study is a description that leads the reader to understanding the research
questions and appreciate why they are asked.

Tips in Writing Background of the Study:

In writing this section,

 ● Introduce and briefly define the variables under study

● cite the most important study or related literature

● be consistent with terms used

● ensure that paragraphs summarize unresolved issues, conflicting findings, social concerns,
or educational, national, or international issues.

● write the last paragraph to highlight the research gap

Delta is currently the predominant variant of the virus in the United States. Below is a high-level
summary of what CDC scientists have recently learned about the Delta variant. More information
will be made available when more data are published or released in other formats .On July 27, 2021 the
new variant of CoVid have been released , a significant increase in new cases reversed what had been a
steady decline since January 2021. In the days leading up to our guidance update, CDC saw a rapid
