Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The researcher's contribution to knowledge is by adding to the existing body of knowledge in their particular area of research. This is achieved by incorporating their research findings into the existing literature and discourse relevant to their research topic. Completing the research project and using research frameworks are part of the process, but they alone do not necessarily contribute to knowledge without being situated within the existing literature. Learning the model of the research process off by heart also does not necessarily contribute to knowledge.
