Answer 1

10.Research problem is the 1st step in research process,it refers to some difficulty which a researcher experiences in the context of either a theoritical or practical situation and wants to obtain solution fr it.

The sources are:social problems,theories,past researches,literature,funding agencies,observations,personal interest and experience,social and economical issues and research priorities.

so the answer is:b,c,d.e

11.The steps of research problem includes the following steps:

specify the research objectives------>review the context----->explore the nature of the problem------>define the variable relationship------->rephrasing the research problem

so the answer is formulation of research objectives

12.Primary source provides the 1st hand information about the issue.examples are eye witness accounts,audio vedio recordings,results of experiments,statistical data etc.

secondary sources were prepared by some other persons who did the experience or who participate in the events or conditions.examples are books,articles etc.

Narratives are the spoken or written or visual representation of words.

Experimental data is the data produced by measurement.

so the answer is:Among the given sources primary sources will be helpful for the reader to get the content easily since here the information is directly given by the person.But the other options are the secondary sources so the information may not be so clear to the researcher to grasp the issue.

13.In constructive paradigm the learning is an active and constructive process.so,the learner creates their own subjective representations.

In participatory pragmatism this creates knowledge further applies to resolve the issue by social action.

In pragmatism paradigm we can use mixed methods of research.

Postpositivism accepts theories,back ground,knowledge and values of researcher

Among the options pragmatism is the one which deals with mixed research methods.so the answer is pragmatism paradigm.
