Research Methodology and Research Method
This chapter looks at the various research methodologies and research methods that are commonly used by researchers in the field of information systems. The research methodology and research method used in this research is acknowledged and discussed.
The chapter starts off by providing a comprehensive introduction to research. Then the research methodologies and research methods particularly used in information systems are discussed. A significant effort has been made to clarify and provide distinctions between research methodology and research method. During the course of this research, when investigating the literature on research methodology and research methods, it was found that many researchers were using the two interchangeably. Therefore the two sections on research methodology and research methods have been treated separately.
A section that compares and differentiates between the two is presented first, followed by the section on research methodology. Then the different types of research methodology are described and the two main types of research methodologies namely qualitative research methodology and qualitative research methodology is discussed. The research methodology that has been utilized for this research is discussed and the reason why the particular research method was chosen with proper justification is explained.
Then research methods in general are discussed and the types of research methods suitable for information systems research are explained. The differences between the qualitative and quantitative research methods are elaborated upon. Since secondary data sources have been used in this research, a section is included to discuss the differences between the two and to explain the advantages of using secondary data sources for research.
Then the research method, that is, the actual data collection and data analysis method is described and justification is provided on why the particular research method was chosen. Case study research method is combined with grounded theory research method for document analysis of archival data that was accessed via the Internet. Descriptive methods have been used to investigate the opportunities and issues of cloud computing with mobile phones for developing countries.
Research methods refer to the specific techniques used to collect and analyze data, such as surveys, experiments, and statistical analysis. Research methodology is the overarching planning and structure of the research. It encompasses research methods, but also includes how the problem is identified and a hypothesis is developed, how data is collected and analyzed, and how the results will be evaluated. Research methodology demonstrates logical and systematic planning to ensure scientific validity, while research methods are the individual tools and procedures.

Inquiries & investigations week 5 6 activitesJojoDeLeon1
This document provides guidance on synthesizing a review of related literature. It begins by outlining the expected learning outcomes, which are to evaluate sources cited, identify gaps/themes/ideas, and write a synthesis. It then defines synthesis as going beyond critique to determine relationships among sources. The key steps are: 1) understand content and identify similarities, 2) review critically and identify differences, 3) synthesize to determine patterns and compare/contrast themes. A good synthesis makes connections between ideas, applying the research to a larger framework. It emphasizes the importance of higher-order thinking skills in writing an objective, logical, and focused synthesis that identifies what the research does and does not tell us.
The document discusses research methodology for a study on improving 4th grade students' ability to solve math word problems.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Difference between Research method and Research methodology.pdf
1. Difference between Research method and Research methodology
Welcome back to the research world in today’s article we are going to discuss
1. What is the research method?
2. What is the research methodology?
Then comparing the research method and methodology and finally discussing the examples of
the two concepts.
So let's begin
First we will discuss
What is a research method?
Research method refers to all those methods; techniques and procedures that are applied, used
during the course of studying the research problem to answer the research problem are known as
the research method.
In other words we can say a research method explains how a researcher identifies, collects the
processes and analyzes the data.
Examples of the research methods are experiments, surveys, questionnaires, regression,
correlation, interviews, case studies, the observational trials etc.
These all are the examples of the research methods because through these different methods, the
researcher will try to solve the research problem. So the research methods are basically classified
into the three groups.
The group number first includes methods that focus on collecting and describing data. That is the
group that will be discussing the methods that are only concerned with the data collection and
describing data.
For example: interviews questionnaires and surveys observations the documents and records the
focus groups and the oral histories. These are the examples of the group first.
2. The group two or the group second includes a collection of the techniques meant to help
establish a statistical relationship between the variables.
For example: Regression analysis, the correlation analysis in case of the quantitative studies
while in case of the qualitative studies we have the content analysis, the narrative analysis and
the discourse analysis so these are the different types of the these are the different types of the
research methods for the data collection. These first two are basically quantitative in nature and
the remaining three are for qualitative studies.
So this is the group second and then we have the group third.
The group three is made up of the methods used to evaluate the reliability, validity and the
accuracy of the results of the processed or the measured data. There are different techniques or
methods through which we can analyze the reliability and the validity of the data so these are
known as the research methods.
What is the research methodology?
Whenever a researcher chooses any particular research method he or she must justify or
rationalize why such a method is preferred to others or we can say that research methodology
means why a particular research method is used or applied.
For example: In this very practical example we will be actually trying to clear the concept of the
methodology that is methodology is the justification. For example a qualitative study is
appropriate when the goal of a researcher is to explain phenomena by replying to the perception
of a person's experience in a given situation. So as outlined, the quantitative approach is
appropriate when a researcher seeks to understand the relationship between variables because the
purpose of this study was to examine the experiences and the perceptions of the women working
in stem. A qualitative approach was the most appropriate choice so this is what justification this
is to justify the chosen research design that why a particular research design has been applied in
this particular research topic or dissertation.
Examples of the research methodology some other questions or examples can be verified for
example was the research instrument designed appropriately that is checking the validity or the
reliability.
