Investigating
- An interesting topic
- select information that goes in-depth of topic
How to create a research plan?
Purpose- why did you choose this topic?
Method - how do you look at the topic?
Data - collect it (surveys, real life experiments)
Ethical
SMART
SMART
Specific (date, place)
Measurable (collect data)
Attainable (be able to find/collect data)
Relevant
Time frame
How to properly gather info?
- observation - watch and record
- Participant - participation for observing
- personal interview (structured)
- Phenomenology - listen to someone describing a unique experience
- survey - asking a group of people the same questions
- Historical research
- official statistics - government records
- review of literature - same info, different authors
Pros and cons of qualitative and quantitative data
qualitative - not with numbers
- offers in-depth description
- can cause bias
Quantitative - numbers, measure
- hard to convince someone
- can prove occureance
