Abstract

The point of this study is to give you something to think about when you think about how professors set the stage for their research by looking at identity and acculturation in educational institutions. The fact that this is done shows how important it is for researchers to align their philosophical views, epistemological views, and dataset collection and analysis methods. The goal of this study is to look into the different methods that are used to solve the problem of identity development, with a focus on exploring problems with ontological and epistemological knowledge. Some examples of these research methods can be found in three studies that the experts did in schools. Researchers can better think about and improve their projects if they have a deeper understanding of the fundamental substructures that affect their studies. In turn, this will allow them to participate in their projects in a more useful way.
