Primary and Secondary Data Collection to Conduct Researches, Write Thesis and Dissertation Amidst COVID-19 Pandemic: A Guidepost
Research has always been regarded by many as tedious because of the difficulties and challenges associated with doing research such as having to forego certain habits like social life. Doing research became even more difficult, especially with regard to limitation on collecting applicable primary and secondary data due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns. It is to be noted that substantive, thorough, sophisticated literature review and intensive pertinent primary data availability are ncessary for doing quality research relevant to the status quo. Various novel approaches have been adopted by scholars through their diverse academic spheres in conducting internationally acceptable research amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. This research aims to come up with a guidepost to facilitate researchers and other stakeholders with fundamental knowledge and skills in conducting substantive, thorough, sophisticated researches that are of international standards. A comparative and diagnostic analysis method is used for analyzing existing literature and policies developed by higher education institutions and schools for doing research in the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. The output allowed authors to develop a guidepost with rules on using limited primary and extensive secondary data in doing research. The guidepost consists of various sections explaining on how to do research and write theses and dissertations. These sections include among others research title, statement of the problem, research objectives, theoretical and conceptual frameworks, review of related literature, research methodology, analysis and interpretation of data, and conclusion and recommendations. The guidepost is very significant in doing researches and aids researchers in conducting internationally accepted researches with limited primary data and extensive secondary data in the advent of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The guidepost is flexible and can easily be used by local and international institutions’ researchers through little modification in context of their research fields.
