Use of inappropriate diction/language
Lack of clarity resulting from the use of inappropriate diction and languages in a project topic can get your research really messy, you know. Words as used in researches are operational and so it must be carefully chosen to mean exactly the same as the researcher intends.
Lack of Research information
Detailed information is key to formulating a good project topic. Knowing first hand the purpose of your research, the main objectives of the research as well as the systematic strategies required to bring the research to conclusion is necessary to formulating a great research topic.
No adequate plans
If you take time to plan for your research project, chances are that you will start with a thoughtful topic otherwise, you could end up with a leftover.
Lack of understanding of topic chosen
In my project defence panel years back, my colleague was asked to re-do her project. Reason being that the research she had conducted does not match the topic she had chosen. Meaning that she simply lacks understanding of what her project topic actually requires, she probably had to cut corners. I hope you don’t repeat such mistake.
Use of complex diction or words
Research trials in simplicity; using complex words in the topic will only complicate issues rather than solve it. Big words have a way of meaning differently. It’s better to use simple words that means one thing and if ever complex words should come in, it should be defined.
Choosing a topic that costs more
As undergraduate, there are research topics you shouldn’t dare to undertake yet. It could cost you much time, much money and much more resources than you can afford. Your research may become incomplete and gets really tough along the line when you realize you couldn’t afford to. Always choose topics that are achievable at the undergraduate research level.
Other potential sources of errors may include:-
• Failure to delimit the topic
• Inability to identify qualities of good research topics
• Choosing a topic you have no interest in
• Lack of research purpose and objective
• Wrong research variables
• Mistake in the topic
