    The project outline

    Who are the people, or What is the behaviour, that youwant to know more about?

    Why does it interest you?

    What background information do you already have aboutthese people or behaviour?

    What kind of learnings are you expecting about these

    people, or about this behaviour?

    The objective:

    Formulate a Research Problem

  • 7/30/2019 20121027 - Session 3

    12/20

    Steps to formulating a research problem

    Stating it in a very broad manner

    Knowing the history, and events that led to the currentsituation

    Understanding the current context and resources alreadyavailable

    Expressing the problem in a way that research findings cansolve it
