The plan – you would now need to dig deeper into your own study and come up with your research design. This will determine how you’ll conduct your study. This entails looking into sampling, data collection, and data analysis methods. You would also need to explain why you have chosen a particular methodology over another and why that is more appropriate?

The Fieldwork – After coming up with a research plan, you would now need to execute it. You’ll need to go to the real words and visit the location, people, or event that you want to study.
