Research methods commonly used in teaching and scientific research projects
The research method of educational scientific research projects refers to certain research paradigms and means adopted to achieve certain research purposes when studying educational phenomena and problems.

The research methods of educational scientific research topics include literature research, investigation research, action research and case study.

1, literature research method is often used in the following aspects: combing the development process and evolution law of educational theory, deeply analyzing the connotation and characteristics of educational theory, thus providing theoretical guidance for solving educational practice problems; It is also used to discuss the development and evolution of educational policies, regulations and systems, analyze their advantages and disadvantages and scope of application, and provide reference for educational reform and development.

2. Investigation and research methods are often used in the following aspects: to understand students' learning needs, hobbies and cognitive characteristics, and to provide basis for the choice of curriculum and educational content; To investigate the situation of teachers' education and teaching, including teaching methods, means and effects, so as to provide reference for improving education and teaching.

3. Action research method is often used in the following aspects: to formulate specific action plans and measures for practical problems in education and teaching, and to implement and abide by them; Reflect and sum up practical experience, adjust and improve the action plan, and constantly optimize education and teaching practice.

Factors to be considered to ensure the reliability of research

1. Clear research questions: Before starting the research, clear research questions should be made to ensure clear research objectives and clear thinking. This can be achieved by writing a literature review or research framework. Only by studying the problems clearly can we ensure the directionality and pertinence of the research, thus avoiding the blindness and unreliability of the research.

2. Reasonable choice of research methods: When determining the research methods, we should comprehensively consider the research objects, research problems, data collection and other factors, and choose the appropriate research methods according to the actual situation. The selected research methods should be verified, reliable and suitable for current research problems. When choosing research methods, we need to consider the feasibility and operability of the research to ensure the smooth implementation of the research.
