ABSTRACT
For any type of a model there must be building components that attribute to it thus the need for analysis and identification. Research being also a model type is not an exceptional and hence embraces the building blocks. This is because researches varies from scientific, social and biological fields but still adhere to some common procedures and steps when establishing one
INTRODUCTION
The term research simply refers to the work of inquiring into something thoroughly and systematically to establish facts. On the other hand a model is a representation of a system that allows for investigation of the properties of the system and, in some cases, prediction of future outcomes. They are applied in quantitative and technical research. For a particular research to be complete there are certain procedures or steps that are involved. These steps are also referred to as building blocks and they include:
Engaging
Defining
Initiating
Locating
Examining, selecting, comprehending, assessing
Recording, sorting organizing, interpreting
Communicating, synthesizing
Evaluating
RESEARCH MODELS
There are two major types of research models. These are known as: Quantitative, This model is also known as experimental, traditional or positivist. Qualitative, this model is also known as naturalistic, post positivist and interpretive. Research models are usually used to describe the overall framework of the research. The models also enable a researcher to look at the reality of what he or she is studying based on a particular philosophy or philosophical stance. Also research models identify basic concepts of the research and help the researcher to establish what the reality is and under what conditions it can be studied. The main reasons why a researcher would choose to use a particular model would include: The experience and training acquired by that researcher: one type of research might require the researcher to have statistical and technical writing skills and others might require the researcher to have literary writing skills, the nature of the problem or subject that is to be researched: the subject might have previously been studied by another researcher and hence there is available data or the subject might require an exploratory research. The particular audience for whom the research is being done: there are some audiences that are more comfortable with quantitative studies and data while others are more co...
