A good research report has important characteristics and/or qualities. In particular, consistency is one such logical alignment that requires attention. As suggested
by Newman and Covig (2013) this process begin" rel="nofollow">ins when a researcher clearly identifies the concepts of in" rel="nofollow">interest and focuses on these constructs when readin" rel="nofollow">ing literature to
help formulate the topic, problem, and purpose of the work. It is important that the research titles contain" rel="nofollow">in the main" rel="nofollow">in idea that will guide the researcher’s thin" rel="nofollow">inkin" rel="nofollow">ing
because the titles capture the researcher’s in" rel="nofollow">intention and makes well-defin" rel="nofollow">ined to the reader what to expect in" rel="nofollow">in a document. In addition, it is “helpful to consider the
four W’s (Who, What, When, Where) and H (How) when formulatin" rel="nofollow">ing a title”. The (what) words are the most important words in" rel="nofollow">in a title as they report the main" rel="nofollow">in variables or
constructs, the (who) words tell the reader the person or groups from which the data was gathered, the (where) words tell the place where the study will be or was
done, the (when) words are added to frame specific periods in" rel="nofollow">in which data were collected, and (how) words tell about the study research design; the way it was
structured and/or how data was collected. Moreover, checkin" rel="nofollow">ing for consistency means you have the ideas/concepts of a previous section aligned with the ideas in" rel="nofollow">in the next
section. In addition, evaluatin" rel="nofollow">ing the various research theory, design and methods rubrics, in" rel="nofollow">in order to safeguard the identity of the participants and the validity and
reliability of the study was also an aspect of the research process (Newman & Covrig, 2013, pp. 72).
Reflection
In addition, readin" rel="nofollow">ing the various articles and research contents, in" rel="nofollow">increase my knowledge of the various paradigms associated with qualitative, quantitative and mix
method research. Moreover, learnin" rel="nofollow">ing about qualitative research methods with its various study approaches, such as naturalism, and ethnomethodology, and grounded
theory, and quantitative research method, which utilizes statistical analysis such as univariate, bivariate, and mutlivariate analysis was also in" rel="nofollow">informative which has
helped me to differentiate the various research methods. Additionally, as middle school science teacher, I need to contin" rel="nofollow">inuously develop my research skills in" rel="nofollow">in order to
help my students develop theirs, apply new skills, in" rel="nofollow">increase my cross-curriculum collaboration, attain" rel="nofollow">in deeper knowledge of science, and contemplate a diversity of
viewpoin" rel="nofollow">ints in" rel="nofollow">in order to better help my students tackle real-world problems at an in" rel="nofollow">individual level, as well as within" rel="nofollow">in the school, neighborhood communities, and society
at large (Walden University, 2015b).
