Professor and Canada Research Chair Dr. George Veletsianos produced an audio podcast for Master of Arts in Learning and Technology students at Royal Roads University to answer students’ questions about research.
Veletsianos described his first steps when taking on a new research project. This involves stating the questions that need to be answered and then seeking out previous research and projects on the subject to find out what is already known (Veletsianos, 2017).
Veletsianos’ motivations for taking on the considerable task of research stem from new questions which arise from his past research, missing elements and unanswered questions that emerge, as well as from personal accounts heard and publicized stories of continuously resurfacing current societal issues (Veletsianos, 2017).
