A SMART way to frame the research objectives
Abstract
Research methodology is a way to solve the research problem systematically. The final part of research project involves thinking in more detail about the research objectives. Research objectives should be closely related to the statement of the problem and summarise what researcher want to achieve at the end of the study. Without properly framed objectives, research can easily become unfocused, vague, and unproductive. Properly framed strong research objectives are mandatory because they provide a structured roadmap for the study, help ensure the research stays on track, and clearly communicate to other researchers, students. Also ensures that the study meets its intended goals. This research article looks at the process of defining a project’s research objectives.
