INTRODUCTION

In any Research work the Research design play an important role because it is begin stage of any research. It we compare it with house architect then we found that blue color or lime line mark for digging foundation. Some function works with research design for research work .If our research design is making very strong by us then our research work automatically well planed and it is very useful for our society. A Research design is simply the framework or plan for a study that is used as a guide in collecting and analyzing the data. It is a blueprint that is followed in completing a study. Research design is the blue print for collection measurement and analysis of data. Actually it is a map that is usually developed to guide the research

“Research design is a master plan specifying the methods and procedures for collection and analyzing the needed information” William Zikmund

“ Research design is the plan, structure and strategy of investigation conceived so as to obtain answers to research questions and to control variance” Kerlinger

IMPORTANT CONCEPT OF RESEARCH DESIGN

Research is a complex process as well as an important plan. After deciding and explaining the problem, comes design. Research design is a systematic way of doing research. Thus, research design provides a particular directing to the research work. It helps the researcher to avoid deviation. Research design is always based as the problem, nature, objective and hypothesis of the research.

PURPOSE OF RESEARCH DESIGN

Research designs are used for the following purposes:

1 To minimize the expenditure 2 To facilitate the smooth scaling 3To collect the relevant data and technique 4 To provide blue print for plans 5 To provide an overview to other experts 6 To provide a direction

NEED OF RESEARCH DESIGN

It reduces inaccuracy; Helps to get maximum efficiency and reliability; Eliminates bias and marginal errors; Minimizes wastage of time; Helpful for collecting research materials; Helpful for testing of hypothesis; Provides an overview to other experts; Guides the research in the right direction.

To clearly define the direction of research study. To find of the solution to the research problem. To eliminate problems encountered in research. To increase the reliability of measurement. For a systematic and logical study.

OBJECTS OF RESEARCH DESIGN

Objectivity Reliability Generalizability Adequate Information Flexibility

Truthfulness pre - caustions Hypothesis Use of Library

CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD RESEARCH DESIGN

TYPES OF RESEARCH

Survey research design.

Case study design.

Experimental Research design.

Design for descriptive research

Design for Explanatory research

Design for Exploratory Research

DESIGN FOR DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH

Descriptive research refers to research that provides an accurate description of characteristics of a particular individual, situation, or group. Descriptive research, also know as statistical research. In short descriptive research deals, which has an impact of the lives of the people it deals with.Example: Finding the most frequent disease that affects the children of a town. The reader of the research will know what to do prevent that disease thus, more people will live a healthy life.

DESIGN FOR EXPLANATORY RESEARCH

A common form of an Explanatory/Analytical study is a case control study. The diagram below displays a classic case control study during which a researcher who wants to test the effect of a particular medicine on an illness will design a study in which a group of patients is divided into two groups – one group will receive the treatment while another group receives a placebo (control). The patients will be followed and their health outcomes will be compared to see if the treatment course resulted in a lessening or elimination of the illness in the treated group as compared to the untreated group.

DESIGN FOR EXPLORATORY RESEARCH

This Research is mostly carried out when there is not sufficient information available about the issue to be studied,or,in other words, the researcher has either no knowledge or a limited knowledge. Example: in the study of effect of TV on young students what may be explored is the magnitude of the problem or what percentage of students watch TV the types of programmes preferred frequently of watching programmes effect on studies impact on intra-family relations and so on.

RESEARCH DESIGNING FOR FIND OUT THESE ANSWER:

What is the study about? Why is the study being made? Where will the study be carried out? What type of data is required? Where can the required data be found? What periods of time will the study include? What techniques of data collection will be used? How will the data be analyzed? In what style will the report be prepared?

PHASES IN RESEARCH DESIGNING.

DIFFERENCE IN DESIGNING QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE RESEARCH

Qualitative Quantitative

Focus Quality Quantity

Data Words Numbers

Instruments Researcher, interview, observation, documents, questionnaire

Test ,observation,

Sample Small, non-random Large, random

Design Flexible predetermined

Aim Understand in depth Generalize

Findings Comprehensive, richly, descriptive

Precise, numerical

MAJOR STEPS IN PREPARING A RESEARCH DESIGN

Statement of research problem is an essential step in preparing a model:

1. Review of Earlier Literature2. Sources of information to be tapped3. Development of Bibliography4. Objectives of study5. Socio-cultural6. Geographical areas to be covered7. Periods of Time to be covered or Time Dimension of the study8. Dimensions of the study9. The basis for selecting for selecting the data10. Techniques of study11. The control of Error12. Establish the reliability and validity of test instruments13. Chapter scheme

ADVANTAGE OF DESIGNING RESEARCH

1. Research can be conducted on scientific basis since precise guideline is provided by advance designing .

2. Wastage of time and money is minimized.3. Optimum reliability is achieved.4. Designing helps in giving useful conclusion

CONCLUSION

Research takes precious time of researcher's life and they faces so many problem during their research. One of those is which kind of tools and technique they adopt choosing is not easy. So many times researcher bound to amend their research work. Research design help to complete systematic research study for researcher by the help of research design they get appropriate direction and save them for time waste here and their. Research design help to save time and money which is follow Dr. Ranganathan fourth law form principle of five laws. Research design is the base of basic research.
