One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Meaning and importance of research

Research is a systematic inquiry that seeks to generate new knowledge or validate existing knowledge through a structured process. Mastering its meaning and importance is essential because it provides the foundation for designing studies, justifying the need for investigation, and contributing to evidence-based practice, all of which are core assessment items in the NUC CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE syllabi.
