Value,Purpose and Importance of Research
The purpose of research is to inform action. Thus, your study
should seek to contextualize its findings within the larger body of
research. Research must always be high quality in order to
produce knowledge that is applicable outside of the research
setting with implications that go beyond the group that has
participated in the research. Furthermore, the results of your
study should have implications for policy and project
implementation. As you probably already know, there are many
reasons why research is done. But what are its purposes? Why
bother with all the different styles, techniques, experiments and
measurements? Expenditures resulting from research funding at

Research of scientific inquiry
The National Science Education Standards define scientific inquiry
as "the diverse ways in which scientists study the natural world
and propose explanations based on the evidence derived from
their work. Scientific inquiry also refers to the activities through
which students develop knowledge and understanding of
scientific ideas, as well as an understanding of how scientists
study the natural world.

Research process
The first step in the process is to identify a problem or develop a
research question. The research problem may be something the
agency identifies as a problem, some knowledge or information
that is needed by the agency, or the desire to identify a recreation
trend nationally. Now that the problem has been identified, the
researcher must learn more about the topic under investigation.
To do this, the researcher must review the literature related to the
research problem. This step provides foundational knowledge
about the problem area Once the instrumentation plan is
completed, the actual study begins with the collection of data.
The collection of data is a critical step in providing the information
needed to answer the research question. All the time, effort, and
resources dedicated to steps 1 through 7 of the research process
culminate in this final step. The researcher finally has data to
analyze so that the research question can be answered. In the
instrumentation plan, the researcher specified how the data will
be analyzed.
