Logical framework of Research Genie:
Research Genie starts with stating the steps for knowledge creation. Schematic and easily understandable diagrams depict the various components of research methodology. These diagrams are designed for rapid recapitulation of all the sessions on research methodology.
First the user is prompted to define the target population with help menus for assistance.
After this, a highly interactive window opens. This channel’s the thinking process of the user to accurately choose the most appropriate research pathway to answer a particular research question. Each pathway comprises of blank templates with prompts, schematic visuals of data patterns, information required for sample size calculation, summary measures and tests of significance specific for the chosen domain of research. If the user goes into a wrong pathway, the flow gets interrupted and prompts the user to start again. This process iterates till the most appropriate research methodology for a given research question is selected. This ensures that the user is guided to the correct research domain.
