 Meaning
 The meaning of Research design is how the data are collected, how
sampling is done, how they are analysed in a particular research.

 We all know the general steps that we follow to conduct a research.

But, how we carry out each step is related to the design we want to
adopt in our research.

 For example, in all other researches we collect data first and then
we conduct analysis. But, in Grounded Theory research design
collection and analysis of data go on simultaneously.
