Your methodology should include a very clear picture of your research design, your methodological approach, and whether you use a qualitative, quantitative or a mixed methodology. You should be sure to use the research methods literature to defend every choice you have made in constructing your research design. You will then discuss your research method or methods followed by chosen data collection techniques. Try not to get lost in a theoretical debate about available choices here; sometimes it can be difficult to see what has been done if you spend a lot of time arguing about possible alternative. In any research there are always alternative; you could write a book on the choices available to you, but you don’t have the space in a dissertation. Describe what you have done and justify your choice; you must provide a very clear picture of what you have done, not describe what you could have done. Define and defend your methodology, your research method(s), your data collection technique and the research instrument(s) you have used. It help to place a blank copy of your research instrument in the appendices so your reader is very clear about the design and content of it. Discuss your research population and your sampling; you are not attempting to hide anything to draw as clear a picture of the research activity as possible. Explain how and why your sample was selected and clearly define your final research sample.
