Abstract:
An overview is given of the process of developing a research question in medical education. Developing a question is the fundamental first step in research, regardless of whether the research is medical or educational. The medical researchers’ beliefs, emotions, and the changing trends in educational theory cannot be ignored when developing the educational research question. Therefore, educational researchers should reflect on their teaching and emotions to determine the subject of research. They must also consider whether the research question is appropriate through constructive brainstorming with peers, discussions with experts, and a broad literature review to acquire theoretical background information.
