How to Become a Good Researcher: An Apple Product Launch Case Study
Let's explore what it takes to become a successful researcher, using the launch of an Apple product as a case study.
A crucial quality for a researcher is the ability to observe phenomena sharply.
However, observation alone is insufficient.
Data, like census figures, is meaningless without analysis and interpretation within a specific context. Without assigning a value, the data itself has no meaning.
As the saying goes in statistics, "data itself has no value."
How does this relate to an Apple product launch?
Apple events often go beyond simply showcasing new products.
They subtly address current social and cultural debates through non-verbal communication.
In past product launches, they have touched on topics like the Me Too Movement, Black Lives Matter Movement, the Indian Farmers' Protest Movement, Movements Against Racial Discrimination, Accident Awareness, and more.
If you've watched an Apple product launch and only seen a product launch, you're missing a crucial layer of information. This is not a sign of a Good Researcher. A good researcher looks deeper.
Apple's February 19, 2025, product launch presents a new opportunity.
Watch it carefully, and consider what you observe beyond the product announcements.
What social or cultural messages are being conveyed?
Comment below with your insights.
Becoming a good researcher involves developing this ability to analyze and interpret seemingly simple events within a broader context. It's about seeing the bigger picture.
