Abstract
Research design entails a process or template of finding definitive answers to research problem and questions. In this attempt a researcher employs two major types of research design; qualitative and quantitative. In the construction of research design the researcher is expected to bear in mind the features in both the qualitative, quantitative and the combination of the two (mixed) methods. The paper discusses and argues that developments in the area of ethical issues have profound effects on research design construction and implementation. It went further to emphasize threats to research design especially in the use of qualitative design method and explains the importance and set back of the use of internet to compliment research design process.
