1. Write the importance of research in your own field. Minimum of 200 words.
No matter what industry you work in or how high up you are, there is always
more to learn. For instance, let's say that a man wanted to enroll in a business
course in order to become wealthy like his father. The subjects covered in that
course are only basic education, so even after receiving a degree in business, he
has no idea how the stock market operates or how to interact with others. This is
because he relied solely on his academics rather than conducting his own
research. Although the skills he learned from his general business have been
useful in his professional life, but relying on them won't produce better results
over the long term. Research is a method of discovering more because schools
are solely for basic learning; those who only stick to what they are expected to
learn in school will always stay in the same spot.
The goal of research is not only to give bases that there is an existing evidence
of what you're trying to learn but research gives you an advantage over people
who lack it since it broadens your perspective and helps you break free from the
same mindset, it determines what has been written and gives the researcher an
Initial understanding of a general idea, but some do not do so and base their
decisions from the information they hear from someone else's mouth or opinions
with no reliable sources, with that mindset, Many students change their courses
or regret their decisions because they encountered things for which they were
unprepared for.
For example, a student who wanted to major in law did little to no research at all
was unaware that the field needs a lot of reading and memorization. The student
merely liked the concept of law since it was argumentative and involved a lot of
debates but was oblivious of many other things and now faced regret. With that
lesson, People who don't conduct thorough research are also not eager to learn.
There are 6 characteristics of research, and I chose Logical and Empirical, I first
want to give an example of a conducted research of Logical research. As stated,
Logical research is based on valid procedures and principles, For example, The
research is to observe and collect data of all students temperature, The purpose
of checking student's temperature is to track their illness as it gives an insight into
hormonal health. People with COVID-19 have a variety of symptoms, with fever
being the most common symptom. Kong Hua School is monitoring students who
exhibit covid symptoms and checking to see if their temperature is above 100.4°F
(38°C). The school observes and check their temperature every day and their
temperature are even required even if they are at home. The goal is to examine
students since fever is a reaction to an infection, disease, or even the
coronavirus. Because students are constantly exposed to the conditions outside,
this method prevent students from spreading the virus to others, it is crucial that
we monitor our body temperatures because they can give us an early warnings
of someone’s health.
The point of that example is that logical research adheres the rules of logic It is
crucial to support your claims and provide logical justifications and to explain
things from a logical point of view, Why does the school need to track their
temperature? Do all students need to be observed? The questions are all
addressed; therefore, it is Logical research. Next is Empirical research,
Empirical can be classified into a qualitative, quantitative methods or mixed.
Empirical data is factual information that has been gathered through
experimentation and observation.
Example, The researcher looks for warning signs in the person, such as how
they behave, obsessive or compulsive tendencies, or remaining in violent
relationships, A psychology analysis and to publish findings to understand why
someone with traumatic experience reacts to dangers. Observing their thinking
patterns, spiritual beliefs, and social interactions. The researcher employs
observation to acquire data, this characteristic of research is evidence-based and
can be proven, making it an empirical study.
