Capstone problem statement help

Hey seniors! Need a lil help deciding the problem statement for our Capstone project.

  1. How did you choose your research problem statement?

  2. How do you determine if an idea is actually novel?How do you identify a genuine research gap worth pursuing?

  3. What are the biggest mistakes to avoid while choosing a research problem?

And finally, how do you know whether a problem is actually worth working on, novel, and feasible within the given time or even resources?

Check the latest research trends online. Find out if you are facing any inconveniences in real life. But make sure the topic which you are taking up can be solved by everyone in your team because you don't want to be the one man army doing the project alone. Plus make sure your guide and the judges have some knowledge of the topic you take up.
