Abstract
121
Statement of expectation or prediction that will be tested in the study of both alternative and null.
Hypothesis
122
is a collaborative and adaptive research
design that focuses on socially and solution-driven outcomes. It has
the potential to increase learning from experience. It is mostly is applicable in the teaching-learning process.
Action Research
123
It is the process of structuring techniques and strategies
that help researchers solve their problems or answer their questions (Clemente,
Julaton & Orleans, 2016).
Research Design
124
This design is widely used by social scientists since it aims to examine contemporary situations that are happening in
real life. This design can provide the bases for the application of concepts and theories as well as detailed descriptions of unusual cases.
Case Study Design
125
This design is commonly used to measure the impact of a particular change on existing situation or norm. Typically, _______ explanations are sought to reflect on hypotheses testing. This effect happens when difference in a phenomenon leads to significant results.
Causal Design
126
These are capable of using data from a large number of subjects as it primarily use survey
techniques to gather data. This design can only measure differences between or from among a diverse set of participants, subjects, or
phenomena.
Cross - sectional design
127
This designs answers the questions who, what,
when, where, and how of a research problem. However, it is could not provide reasons or exact answers to the question “why”. It only intends to describe "what exists" in a situation and its related variables.
Descriptive Design
128
This design involves an experimental group and
a control group wherein the independent variable is applied to the experimental group while maintaining the control group. Later, both groups are measured on the same target dependent variable. It may require the use of more groups and measurements over periods of time to validate the results.
Experimental Design
129
Primarily, this design is fitted to a research problem that is not yet saturated or with only a few or totally no investigations or investigations have been conducted for. This is often
administered to understand the processes in order to proceed in deeper studying of an issue. This may also deal with discovering the best methodology to use in gathering information.
Exploratory Design
130
Collecting, verifying, and synthesizing evidences
from the significant past are the aim of this research design. This is
bound towards establish factual bases to defend, challenge or nullify a
certain existing knowledge. It mainly involves data from secondary
sources and also primary documents and artifacts, such as but not limited to records, materials, archives and visual artifacts like maps, images, and footages or recordings.
Historical Design
131
This design is a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. Its is advantageous in the sense that the strengths of one method can be used to fulfill the weaknesses of another. Mixed-method design can provide sufficient evidences to support a conclusion or set of recommendations since it deals with statistical data and insights from patterns and relationships of the involved variables.
Mixed - Method Design
