Essentials of Research John Abdul Kargbo

Research is an exposition that presents the results of a careful investigation of some chosen topic. The labour involved in constructing the research paper is justified partly by what students will learn from the material read and partly by the training that they will receive in the course of writing it. It is especially valuable because the students will become acquainted with the necessary library techniques by learning to use different sources all of which are a short cut to the information they seek. Students will learn how to take notes that contain adequate information and how to organize it into readable document. Once the technique of research and preparation of a correctly documented theme has been mastered the students will be prepared to face the course in which research papers is required. ?Essentials of Research? is a manual for beginning researchers.
