Devising Research Inquiries: An Interdisciplinary-Strategic Approach

Abstract

At the core of a successful research is the inquiry process to attain knowledge about the problem, to address the overarching research question and any sub-components. Research methodology processes take form in numerous ways, such as, but not limited to, question-based, archive analysis and observation, among others. Queries illuminate the path to reaching a level of core understanding, as a result of assimilating the results of the inquiry process, either by way of research questions and/or review of documents and observations. The intent of this article is to highlight a strategic approach to devising research inquiries from an interdisciplinary perspective.
