Research Focus: How can scholars identify and address research gaps within their respective fields to develop their research proposal?

Students often encounter the challenge of doing a decent literature review and identifying research gaps. Please read the three articles @ week $1>$Resources about challenges of identifying and writing a research gap. Find at least two other articles in this regard.

Explore the challenges of finding and filling a gap in the literature review $($Kearney$,2017),$ and argue how larger gaps can be lessened and filled in lit review $($Kearney$,2017)?$ Explain how and where a researcher should start the phase of identifying research gaps in different sections $($Ajemba$,2022).$ How does Chand's $(2023)$ frameworks help a researcher identify research gaps? Explores strategies employed by scholars to navigate research gaps and develop robust research proposals.

Please note that by critically assessing existing literature, scholars $($and students$/$you$)$ can identify areas where knowledge is lacking or incomplete. You can then formulate research questions that address these gaps, drawing on various methods such as literature reviews, theoretical frameworks, and empirical studies.

You are going to write a $2-3$ page research paper providing insights into the process of identifying and addressing research gaps, empowering student researchers to strengthen their research proposals and make meaningful contributions to their respective fields.

Your paper includes an introduction, three$-$five main well$-$developed main ideas relevant to the topic $($that need to be described, explored, discussed, studied, and supported $($by research$-$based supporting ideas, personal examples$/$analytical reflection, and real$-$world experience$).$ Finish your paper with a conclusion.

Start with READING all reading materials, do additional research about the topic $($to have at least TWO new$/$additional articles$).$ At least $75\%$ of the references must be published within the last $5$ years. Now, Synthesize, NOT Summarize, and follow the APA $7$ writing requirements and rules to write your paper$/$report$.$

Make sure you have included & checked all in$-$text citations and you've listed all references at the end.

NO AI$-$generated piece$/$response$/$discussion$,$ at any
