Research Process
Research is a structured enquiry that utilizes acceptable scientific methodology to solve problems and create new knowledge that is generally applicable.
Penelitian adalah penyelidikan terstruktur yang memanfaatkan metodologi ilmiah yang dapat diterima untuk memecahkan masalah dan menciptakan pengetahuan baru yang berlaku secara umum

Research Process
The research process is similar to undertaking a journey.
For a research journey there are two important decisions to make-
What you want to find out about or what research questions (problems) you want to find answers to;
How to go about finding their answers.

Research Process
There are practical steps through which you must pass in your research journey in order to find answers to your research questions.
The path to finding answers to your research questions constitutes research methodology.
At each operational step in the research process you are required to choose from a multiplicity of methods, procedures and models of research methodology which will help you to best achieve your objectives.

6. Steps in Research Process
1. Formulating the Research Problem (Merumuskan masalah)
2. Extensive Literature Review
3. Developing the objectives
4. Preparing the Research Design including Sample Design
5. Collecting the Data
6. Analysis of Data
7. Generalisation and Interpretation
8. Preparation of the Report or Presentation of Results-Formal write ups of conclusions reached.

7. Formulating the research problem
It is the first and most crucial step in the research process
Main function is to decide what you want to find out about (apa yg ingin dicari)
The way you formulate a problem determines almost every step that follows (Cara Anda merumuskan masalah menentukan hampir setiap langkah selanjutnya)

8. Considerations (Pertimbangan) in selecting a research problem
These help to ensure that your study will remain manageable and that you will remain motivated
Interest: a research endeavour is usually time consuming, and involves hard work and possibly unforeseen problems. One should select topic of great interest to sustain the required motivation.

9. Considerations (Pertimbangan) in selecting a research problem
Magnitude: It is extremely important to select a topic that you can manage within the time and resources at your disposal. Narrow the topic down to something manageable, specific and clear.
Measurement of concepts: Make sure that you are clear about the indicators and measurement of concepts (if used) in your study.

10. Considerations (Pertimbangan) in selecting a research problem
Level of expertise: Make sure that you have adequate level of expertise for the task you are proposing since you need to do the work yourself.
Relevance: Ensure that your study adds to the existing body of knowledge, bridges current gaps and is useful in policy formulation. This will help you to sustain interest in the study.

11. Considerations (Pertimbangan) in selecting a research problem
Availability of data: Before finalizing the topic, make sure that data are available.
Ethical issues: How ethical issues can affect the study population and how ethical problems can be overcome should be thoroughly examined at the problem formulating stage.

12. Steps in formulation of a research problem
Step 1 : Identify a broad field or subject area of interest to you. Step 2 : Dissect the broad area into sub areas. Step 3 : Select what is of most interest to you. Step 4 : Raise research questions. Step 5 : Formulate objectives. Step 6 : Assess your objectives. Step 7 : Double check.
