- Experiences
- Social Media
- All of the Above
Correct Answer

A. Experiences

Explanation

Experiences are the most essential source of knowledge in doing research because they provide firsthand information and insights that cannot be obtained from books or social media. Through personal experiences, researchers can gain practical knowledge, learn from their mistakes, and develop a deeper understanding of their subject matter. Experiences also allow researchers to observe and analyze real-life situations, which can contribute to the development of new theories and ideas. Therefore, experiences play a crucial role in expanding knowledge and enhancing the quality of research.
