Conducting Surveys,
Experiments or
Observations
Research is significant in our everyday activities. It is the result of a thinking
process that involves you in questioning techniques or models. In order for you to
have a grasp of the techniques in conducting survey, experiments or observation,
you have to know the processes involved in inquiry and research.
The next activity will let you connect your understanding and learning about
our previous lesson about the design, test, and revises survey questionnaires.
What’s In
Let’s try to recall what you have learned and mastered in the previous
lesson. Let’s go!
ACTIVITY 1. Test Me
Directions: Listed below is a draft questionnaire for an online learning survey that
the DEPED plans to conduct. Your role in this exercise is to pilot (test) the
questionnaire and try to identify any questionnaire problems and then suggest
ways to improve it. (Note: This is a particularly poor questionnaire so expect to find
quite a few problems).
QUESTIONS
1. What concerns do you have with the above questionnaire? Answer:
Thank you for participating in this market research for DEPED.
1. What are your experiences as a student in your online class?
2. What are your thoughts about learning in an online environment?
3. Does online learning impact the social nature of the classroom setting?
4. Describe any possible benefits of online learning.
5. Describe any challenges of online learning.
9
2. What suggestions do you have in order to improve the questionnaire?
Answer:
3. How valuable would the research results be if this questionnaire was used in the
research?
Answer:
4. How important is piloting (testing) a questionnaire before use?
Answer:
What’s New
You have just assessed your understanding in designing, testing and
revising survey questionnaires. In order for you to use what you have learned in the
previous lesson, let’s do this activity. Enjoy!
Activity 2. Think and Select!
Directions: Read the situation below and think of what study would be the
appropriate and useful. Explain your answer on the space provided.
Situation:
Answer:
.
Pedro wants to know if listening to music using head phones for more than
60 minutes per day affects hearing.
Would a survey, an observational study, or an experiment be more useful?
10
What is It
Let’s deepen your understanding on the concepts and ideas about
conducting survey, experiments or observation.
1. Survey
In doing a survey, the researcher must understand the right mode of inquiry
for establishing an inference whether in a large group of people or from a small
number of people in a group. The very aim of conducting a survey is to present and
explain the actual experiences of a certain population. Conducting survey are done
in three (3) steps: 1) by email; 2) telephone; 3) personal interview. The method of
data collection can be from observation to content analysis and this can be used in
the survey.
The challenges and limitations of survey are seen according to the following
criteria: 1) appropriateness of the method; 2) accuracy of what to observe; 3)
generalizability of the findings; 4) administrative constrains; 5) ethical and political
difficulties.
Survey research means collecting information about a group of people by
asking them questions and analyzing the results. To conduct an effective survey,
follow these six steps:
1. Determine who will participate in the survey
2. Decide the type of survey (mail, online, or in-person)
3. Design the survey questions and layout
4. Distribute the survey
5. Analyze the responses
6. Write up the results
Surveys are a flexible method of data collection that can be used in many
different types of research.
An example of a survey is the open-ended questions. This is placed in a box
form and will permit your respondents to provide a unique answer. This kind of
approach is able to provide the respondents the freedom to say what they feel
about a topic, which provides you with an exploratory data that may unleash
important issues, opportunities, issues, or quotes.
2. Experimental Research
Experimental research is a study that strictly adheres to a scientific research
design. It includes a hypothesis, a variable that can be manipulated by the
researcher, and variables that can be measured, calculated and compared. Most
importantly, experimental research is completed in a controlled environment. The
researcher collects data and results will either support or reject the hypothesis.
11
This method of research is referred to a hypothesis testing or a deductive research
method.
Experimental research seeks to determine a relationship between two (2)
variables—the dependent variable and the independent variable. After completing
an experimental research study, a correlation between a specific aspect of an entity
and the variable being studied is either supported or rejected.
Data in experimental research must be able to be quantified, or measured.
Data collected could be acidity/alkalinity, area, circumference, density, electrical
current/potential/resistance, force, growth (time, weight, volume, length/width),
heat, humidity, light intensity, mass, pressure, sound intensity, temperature, time,
velocity, volume or weight. However, the entity should be carefully observed
qualitatively, or described using words and photographs. How does the entity look,
smell, sound, feel, and taste (when appropriate)? These types of observations help
supplement the measurements taken throughout the experiment.
Forensic Studies—Studying splatter (a physics/math study), decomposition
(an entomology study), damage to objects (a physics/engineering study), can be
done in a controlled environment and be measured.
“The Effect of on ” Studies—All experimental studies look to
determine how one thing affects another.
Product Effectiveness—If a specific aspect (active ingredients, size of crucial
components etc…) of several products can be determined to be in different quality
or quantity, this makes for a great experimental project. (For example the different
levels of Ethyl Alcohol within antibacterial hand sanitizers.)
Microbiology—bacteria (and some protists) grow quickly, change in
population is easily measured and therefore make for a good experimental study.
Experiments are performed all around us everyday. Whether they're done to
find out if a cancer curing medication works or to find out how fast water
evaporates at certain temperatures, experiments are constantly performed.
However, what separates a simple experiment from a professionally done
experiment is the use of the Scientific Method.
The Scientific Method is a series of organized steps to which an experiment
is done. The Scientific Method helps you plan, predict, research, conclude and
maybe even publish your findings. The Scientific Method will make your
experiment more organized, easy to interpret and learn from.
The steps to the Scientific Method are:
1) Pose a Testable Question.
2) Conduct Background Research.
3) State your Hypothesis.
4) Design Experiment.
12
5) Perform your Experiment.
6) Collect Data.
7) Draw Conclusions.
8) Publish Findings (optional).
3. Observation
May take place in natural settings and involve the researcher taking lengthy
and descriptive notes of what is happening. It is argued that there are limits to the
situations that can be observed in their 'natural' settings and that the presence of
the researcher may lead to problems with validity.
Limitations with observation include:
a. Change in people's behavior when they know they are being observed
b. A 'snap shot' view of a whole situation
c. Think Big Brother...
d. The researcher may miss something while they are watching and taking
notes
e. The researcher may make judgments, make value statements or
misunderstand what has been observed
Strengths of observation
a. Can offer a flavor for what is happening
b. Can give an insight into the bigger picture
c. Can demonstrate sub-groups
d. Can be used to assist in the design of the rest of the research
e. Sometimes, the researcher becomes or needs to become a participant
observer, where he/she is taking part in the situation in order to be accepted and
further understand the workings of the social phenomenon
Observation can sometimes obtain more reliable information about certain
things—for example, how people actually behave. It can also serve as a technique
for verifying or nullifying information provided in face to face encounters. People or
environment can be observed. When environment is researched, it can provide
valuable background information that may inform other aspects of the research.
Techniques for collecting data through observation:
Written descriptions - The researcher makes written descriptions of the
people, situations or environment -
13
Limitations include
 Researcher might miss out on an observation as they are taking notes
 The researcher may be focused on a particular event or situation o
There is room for subjective interpretation of what is happening

Video recording
- Allows the researcher to also record notes
- Limitations may include
 People acting unnaturally towards the camera or others avoiding the camera
 The camera may not always see everything
Photographs and artifacts
- Useful when there is a need to collect observable information or
phenomena such as buildings, neighborhoods, dress and appearance
- Artifacts include objects of significance—memorabilia, instruments, tools
and others.
Documentation
Any and all kinds of documentation may be used to provide information—a
local paper, information on a notice board, administrative policies and procedures.
How to Conduct Observations for Research
1. Identify Objective
Determine what you want to observe and why. Are looking to see how
students respond to a new environment? How customers interact with employees?
How bosses interact with subordinates? When conducting observations, you are
trying to learn habits, patterns, behaviors, reactions, and general information
about people in a particular environment to better understand what they do and,
hopefully eventually, why they do it (though observations alone often won’t tell you
the “why”).
2. Establish Recording Method
To make observations most effective, it’s important that you minimize or
eliminate any disruptive or unfamiliar devices into the environment you wish to
observe. For example, it is often least effective to videorecord observations in
situations where the people being observed know they are being filmed (but it’s
usually unethical to film without telling them. Note-taking is the most common
method, though in some public spaces you can take photographs, audio
recordings, and other methods.
3. Develop Questions and Techniques
Determine whether you are conducting an informal or a formal observation
(see explanations to the far right.) Knowing your objective, determine if there are
specific questions you have or if you are going in completely open-minded. What
you hope to learn will help you know what specifically to look for. Be prepared
when entering an observation space by having a sound understanding of the type
of information you are trying learn.
4. Observe and Take Notes
Visit the place you are hoping to get information from. Be as unobtrusive as
possible, taking notes, photographs, audio, and film, only where it is allowed, you
14
have permission, and it makes sense for the research without disrupting the
environment. If you are doing formal observations, will you need to code certain
behaviors, actions, words, visuals, and other observed data.
5. Analyze Behaviors and Inferences
Separate the difference between what you observed (which are factual
behaviors) and why what you observed happened. Typically, to make some sense of
your observed data, you will need to interview people in the environment you are
observing, either during the observation itself, or afterwards. Make connections
between interactions, responses, behaviors, and other phenomena.
What’s More
You’ve already gained much insight about conducting survey, experiments
or observations. This time, you are tasked to do more. To make your learning
experience productive and meaningful you are expected to do the activities
independently.

  • 11. 8 Lesso n 6 Conducting Surveys, Experiments or Observations Research is significant in our everyday activities. It is the result of a thinking process that involves you in questioning techniques or models. In order for you to have a grasp of the techniques in conducting survey, experiments or observation, you have to know the processes involved in inquiry and research. The next activity will let you connect your understanding and learning about our previous lesson about the design, test, and revises survey questionnaires. What’s In Let’s try to recall what you have learned and mastered in the previous lesson. Let’s go! ACTIVITY 1. Test Me Directions: Listed below is a draft questionnaire for an online learning survey that the DEPED plans to conduct. Your role in this exercise is to pilot (test) the questionnaire and try to identify any questionnaire problems and then suggest ways to improve it. (Note: This is a particularly poor questionnaire so expect to find quite a few problems). QUESTIONS 1. What concerns do you have with the above questionnaire? Answer: Thank you for participating in this market research for DEPED. 1. What are your experiences as a student in your online class? 2. What are your thoughts about learning in an online environment? 3. Does online learning impact the social nature of the classroom setting? 4. Describe any possible benefits of online learning. 5. Describe any challenges of online learning.
  • 12. 9 2. What suggestions do you have in order to improve the questionnaire? Answer: 3. How valuable would the research results be if this questionnaire was used in the research? Answer: 4. How important is piloting (testing) a questionnaire before use? Answer: What’s New You have just assessed your understanding in designing, testing and revising survey questionnaires. In order for you to use what you have learned in the previous lesson, let’s do this activity. Enjoy! Activity 2. Think and Select! Directions: Read the situation below and think of what study would be the appropriate and useful. Explain your answer on the space provided. Situation: Answer: . Pedro wants to know if listening to music using head phones for more than 60 minutes per day affects hearing. Would a survey, an observational study, or an experiment be more useful?
  • 13. 10 What is It Let’s deepen your understanding on the concepts and ideas about conducting survey, experiments or observation. 1. Survey In doing a survey, the researcher must understand the right mode of inquiry for establishing an inference whether in a large group of people or from a small number of people in a group. The very aim of conducting a survey is to present and explain the actual experiences of a certain population. Conducting survey are done in three (3) steps: 1) by email; 2) telephone; 3) personal interview. The method of data collection can be from observation to content analysis and this can be used in the survey. The challenges and limitations of survey are seen according to the following criteria: 1) appropriateness of the method; 2) accuracy of what to observe; 3) generalizability of the findings; 4) administrative constrains; 5) ethical and political difficulties. Survey research means collecting information about a group of people by asking them questions and analyzing the results. To conduct an effective survey, follow these six steps: 1. Determine who will participate in the survey 2. Decide the type of survey (mail, online, or in-person) 3. Design the survey questions and layout 4. Distribute the survey 5. Analyze the responses 6. Write up the results Surveys are a flexible method of data collection that can be used in many different types of research. An example of a survey is the open-ended questions. This is placed in a box form and will permit your respondents to provide a unique answer. This kind of approach is able to provide the respondents the freedom to say what they feel about a topic, which provides you with an exploratory data that may unleash important issues, opportunities, issues, or quotes. 2. Experimental Research Experimental research is a study that strictly adheres to a scientific research design. It includes a hypothesis, a variable that can be manipulated by the researcher, and variables that can be measured, calculated and compared. Most importantly, experimental research is completed in a controlled environment. The researcher collects data and results will either support or reject the hypothesis.
  • 14. 11 This method of research is referred to a hypothesis testing or a deductive research method. Experimental research seeks to determine a relationship between two (2) variables—the dependent variable and the independent variable. After completing an experimental research study, a correlation between a specific aspect of an entity and the variable being studied is either supported or rejected. Data in experimental research must be able to be quantified, or measured. Data collected could be acidity/alkalinity, area, circumference, density, electrical current/potential/resistance, force, growth (time, weight, volume, length/width), heat, humidity, light intensity, mass, pressure, sound intensity, temperature, time, velocity, volume or weight. However, the entity should be carefully observed qualitatively, or described using words and photographs. How does the entity look, smell, sound, feel, and taste (when appropriate)? These types of observations help supplement the measurements taken throughout the experiment. Forensic Studies—Studying splatter (a physics/math study), decomposition (an entomology study), damage to objects (a physics/engineering study), can be done in a controlled environment and be measured. “The Effect of on ” Studies—All experimental studies look to determine how one thing affects another. Product Effectiveness—If a specific aspect (active ingredients, size of crucial components etc…) of several products can be determined to be in different quality or quantity, this makes for a great experimental project. (For example the different levels of Ethyl Alcohol within antibacterial hand sanitizers.) Microbiology—bacteria (and some protists) grow quickly, change in population is easily measured and therefore make for a good experimental study. Experiments are performed all around us everyday. Whether they're done to find out if a cancer curing medication works or to find out how fast water evaporates at certain temperatures, experiments are constantly performed. However, what separates a simple experiment from a professionally done experiment is the use of the Scientific Method. The Scientific Method is a series of organized steps to which an experiment is done. The Scientific Method helps you plan, predict, research, conclude and maybe even publish your findings. The Scientific Method will make your experiment more organized, easy to interpret and learn from. The steps to the Scientific Method are: 1) Pose a Testable Question. 2) Conduct Background Research. 3) State your Hypothesis. 4) Design Experiment.

Observation May take place in natural settings and involve the researcher taking lengthy and descriptive notes of what is happening. It is argued that there are limits to the situations that can be observed in their 'natural' settings and that the presence of the researcher may lead to problems with validity. Limitations with observation include: a. Change in people's behavior when they know they are being observed b. A 'snap shot' view of a whole situation c. Think Big Brother... d. The researcher may miss something while they are watching and taking notes e. The researcher may make judgments, make value statements or misunderstand what has been observed Strengths of observation a. Can offer a flavor for what is happening b. Can give an insight into the bigger picture c. Can demonstrate sub-groups d. Can be used to assist in the design of the rest of the research e. Sometimes, the researcher becomes or needs to become a participant observer, where he/she is taking part in the situation in order to be accepted and further understand the workings of the social phenomenon Observation can sometimes obtain more reliable information about certain things—for example, how people actually behave. It can also serve as a technique for verifying or nullifying information provided in face to face encounters. People or environment can be observed. When environment is researched, it can provide valuable background information that may inform other aspects of the research. Techniques for collecting data through observation: Written descriptions - The researcher makes written descriptions of the people, situations or environment -
  • 16. 13 Limitations include  Researcher might miss out on an observation as they are taking notes  The researcher may be focused on a particular event or situation o There is room for subjective interpretation of what is happening  Video recording - Allows the researcher to also record notes - Limitations may include  People acting unnaturally towards the camera or others avoiding the camera  The camera may not always see everything Photographs and artifacts - Useful when there is a need to collect observable information or phenomena such as buildings, neighborhoods, dress and appearance - Artifacts include objects of significance—memorabilia, instruments, tools and others. Documentation Any and all kinds of documentation may be used to provide information—a local paper, information on a notice board, administrative policies and procedures. How to Conduct Observations for Research 1. Identify Objective Determine what you want to observe and why. Are looking to see how students respond to a new environment? How customers interact with employees? How bosses interact with subordinates? When conducting observations, you are trying to learn habits, patterns, behaviors, reactions, and general information about people in a particular environment to better understand what they do and, hopefully eventually, why they do it (though observations alone often won’t tell you the “why”). 2. Establish Recording Method To make observations most effective, it’s important that you minimize or eliminate any disruptive or unfamiliar devices into the environment you wish to observe. For example, it is often least effective to videorecord observations in situations where the people being observed know they are being filmed (but it’s usually unethical to film without telling them. Note-taking is the most common method, though in some public spaces you can take photographs, audio recordings, and other methods. 3. Develop Questions and Techniques Determine whether you are conducting an informal or a formal observation (see explanations to the far right.) Knowing your objective, determine if there are specific questions you have or if you are going in completely open-minded. What you hope to learn will help you know what specifically to look for. Be prepared when entering an observation space by having a sound understanding of the type of information you are trying learn. 4. Observe and Take Notes Visit the place you are hoping to get information from. Be as unobtrusive as possible, taking notes, photographs, audio, and film, only where it is allowed, you
  • 17. 14 have permission, and it makes sense for the research without disrupting the environment. If you are doing formal observations, will you need to code certain behaviors, actions, words, visuals, and other observed data. 5. Analyze Behaviors and Inferences Separate the difference between what you observed (which are factual behaviors) and why what you observed happened. Typically, to make some sense of your observed data, you will need to interview people in the environment you are observing, either during the observation itself, or afterwards. Make connections between interactions, responses, behaviors, and other phenomena. What’s More You’ve already gained much insight about conducting survey, experiments or observations. This time, you are tasked to do more. To make your learning experience productive and meaningful you are expected to do the activities independently. Activity 3. Understand the Difference!
