ENG518Research Methodology in ELT

ENG518 Complete Guidelines

ENG518 Research Methodology in ELT prepares English linguistics students to design and carry out their own research — the exact skills needed for a thesis or final-year project. The course covers research paradigms, qualitative vs quantitative approaches, research design, sampling, data collection instruments (questionnaires, interviews, observations), data analysis basics, and academic writing conventions including referencing. Students often find this course abstract until they connect it to a real study.

The trick is to learn every concept through an example: when you study "sampling", invent a small ELT study and decide your sample; when you study "questionnaires", draft three sample questions. Examiners frequently ask you to design a mini-research plan or critique a given methodology — applied answers score far more than definitions. The handouts introduce the terminology, and the notes file is a tight summary for revision week. This collection's 17 past papers are especially valuable: final-term papers often present a research scenario and ask you to identify the design, variables, and instruments. Practice those scenario questions under timed conditions, and always justify your choices — in research methods, the "why" carries as many marks as the "what".
