    The document discusses the definition and characteristics of research. Research is defined as the systematic investigation into materials and sources to establish new facts and conclusions. It gathers new knowledge from primary sources and aims to discover general principles through exact, systematic, and accurate investigation using valid data collection methods. The seven key characteristics of research are that it is purposive, controlled, rigorous, systematic, valid and verifiable, critical, and empirical. A good research problem addresses a gap in knowledge, is significant, leads to further research, and can be investigated through data collection.
