Research for students is one of the skills that must be owned as one of the

prerequisites for improving the quality of education. During the following educational
activities, students are required to produce skilled papers in the form of papers, reports books,
theses or dissertations. All the scientific papers are based on the results of research.
Research is a way of observation or inquiry and has the purpose to find answers to
problems or processes of discovery, both discovery and invention. Research can also mean
the application of a scientific approach on the assessment of a problem to obtain useful
information and can be accountable. Research that aims to test the theory or the results of
previous research, so that results can be obtained that can abort or strengthen the theory or
research results that have been done before. Research is also used to develop, explore and
expand more deeply about a problem or theory of the university.
Selection and problem formulation is one of the most important aspects in the
conduct of research in any field. Research can not be done before a problem is identified,
thoroughly thought out, and formulated properly. After the problem to be studied it is
determined (what variables will be studied, and how the relation of variables to one another),
and so the problem can be answered accurately. Conducting preliminary studies, this is done
with the aim to collect information related to the problem to be studied. So that can be known
condition or position of the problem both theoretically and practically. The knowledge gained
from the preliminary study is useful for constructing a theoretical framework of problem
solving in the form of hypotheses to be verified through the conduct of field research.
Formulating a hypothesis is a provisional assumption that will be verified through field
research. Determining the research sample and preparing the research plan, this stage is a
guide during the conduct of research. As a pattern of planning should be able to reveal
matters relating to research implementation activities. Data collection is based on guidelines
already prepared in the research design. Data collected through research activities serve as a
basis in testing the proposed hypothesis. Research is done objectively, systematically, using
methods and procedures, and guided by rules of data collection, data processing, and
scientifically proven.
From the research that has been done can be drawn conclusion utuk answer
masalalah existing. The researcher should be able to show that the research can fill in the gap
in existing knowledge, or help solve the problems contained in previous research.
