6 One of the most important parts of academic writing is the research data that will be presented in the academic text to be written. In order to obtain these data, researches are carried out using various methods. However, how to create a research design and what steps will be taken before conducting the research is an important issue. For this reason, students who take this course should also know how to access resources related to the subject they will research within the framework of a research topic in order to facilitate the coping with the difficulties they may encounter in their future education lives. In this context, in the sixth phase of this lesson, students briefly asked ""What is research?"" , ""How is a scientific research done?"" ""What should be done before doing research?"" , ""How can you access the resources to be used in a scientific research?"" , ""Which techniques are used while collecting data of a research?"" etc. questions are asked.
