Introduction to research methodology.pptxahmedmcjdu
Introduction to research methodology. Research methodology is a structured and scientific approach used to collect, analyze, and interpret quantitative or qualitative data to answer research questions or test hypotheses. A research methodology is like a plan for carrying out research and helps keep researchers on track by limiting the scope of the research. Several aspects must be considered before selecting an appropriate research methodology, such as research limitations and ethical concerns that may affect your research.
The research methodology section in a scientific paper describes the different methodological choices made, such as the data collection and analysis methods, and why these choices were selected. The reasons should explain why the methods chosen are the most appropriate to answer the research question. A good research methodology also helps ensure the reliability and validity of the research findings. There are three types of research methodology—quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method, which can be chosen based on the research objectives.
Moreover, A research methodology describes the techniques and procedures used to identify and analyze information regarding a specific research topic. It is a process by which researchers design their study so that they can achieve their objectives using the selected research instruments. It includes all the important aspects of research, including research design, data collection methods, data analysis methods, and the overall framework within which the research is conducted. While these points can help you understand what is research methodology, you also need to know why it is important to pick the right methodology.
Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles.docxdickonsondorris
Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles: a quantitative methods article and a qualitative methods article. These do not need to be on the same topic, but if you have a research topic in mind for your proposal (see Assessment 5), you may wish to pick something similar for this assessment. Read each article carefully.
Then, in a 2–3-page assessment, address the following elements:
1 Summarize the research question and hypothesis, the research methods, and the overall findings.
2 Compare the research methodologies used in each study. In what ways are the methodologies similar? In what ways are they different? (Be sure to use the technical psychological terms we are studying.)
3 Describe the sample and sample size for each study. Which one used a larger sample and why? How were participants selected?
4 Describe the data collection process for each study. What methods were used to collect the data? Surveys? Observations? Interviews? Be specific and discuss the instruments or measures fully—what do they measure? How is the test designed?
5 Summarize the data analysis process for each study. How was the data analyzed? Were statistics used? Were interviews coded?
6 In conclusion, craft 1–2 paragraphs explaining how these two articles illustrate the main differences between quantitative and qualitative research.
Additional Requirements
· Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
· APA formatting: Your assessment should be formatted according to APA (6th ed.) style and formatting.
· Length: A typical response will be 2–3 typed and double-spaced pages.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
Research Methods
There are many different types of research studies, and the type of study that is done depends very much on the research question. Some studies demand strictly numerical data, such as a comparison of GPA among different college majors or weight loss among different types of eating programs. Others require more in-depth data, like interview responses. Such studies might include the lived experience of people that have been through a terrorist attack or understanding the experience of being physically disabled on a college campus. While there are a number of different types of studies that can be done, all of them fall under two basic categories: quantitative and qualitative.
Quantitative Research
Quantitative research deals with numerical data. This means that any topic you study in a quantitative study must be quantifiable—grades, weight, height, depression, and intelligence are all things that can be quantified on some scale of measurement. Quantitative data is often considered hard data—numbers are seen as concrete, irrefutable evidence, but we have to take into account a number of factors that could impact such data. Errors in measurement and recording of such data, as well as the influence of other factors outside those in the study, make for ...
Difference between quantitative and qualitative researchSafi Nawam
Researchers usually work within a paradigm that is consistent with their world view, and that gives rise to the types of question that excite their curiosity.
The maturity of the concept of interest also may lead to one or the other paradigm: when little is known about a topic, a qualitative approach is often more fruitful than a quantitative one

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. Presentation outline
•What is A research problem?
•some components of a research problem
•Can we study all problems?
•When a problem is researchable?
3. What is Research Question
A research question is usually the first step in any research
project.
It is a specific inquiry which the research seeks to provide a
response to.
It resides at the core of systematic investigation and it helps a
researcher to clearly define a path for the research process.
It is the primary interrogation point of your research and it sets
the pace for your work.
4. Cont.
Typically, a research question focuses on the research,
determines the methodology and hypothesis
It guides all stages of inquiry, analysis, and reporting.
With the right research questions, you will be able to
gather useful information for your investigation.
5.
6. The question should clearly
state
Not too broad and not too
narrow.
Not too easy to answer.
Not too difficult to answer.
Researchable.
Analytical rather than
descriptive.
Characteristics of a good research questions
7. Sources of research Question
1. Personal sources:
• List your interests as they pertain to your specific discipline
• Consider one of the items on your list
• Now find the answers to this question: “Who? What? When? Why? How?
So what? And What if..?” These represent possible “gaps” in one’s
knowledge.
• Find an open-ended question you would like to answer.
8. Cont.
2. Read:
Sometimes, we are curious about something new topics that interest us first, then
• Should go to the library
• Search online academic and professional sites related to our discipline and
topics
9. Types of Research Questions
There are three basic types of questions that research projects can
address:
1. Descriptive. When a study is designed primarily to describe what
is going on or what exists.
Public opinion polls that seek only to describe the proportion of people who
hold various opinions are primarily descriptive in nature. For instance, if we
want to know what percent of the population would vote for a Democratic
or a Republican in the next presidential election, we are simply interested in
describing something.
10. 2. Relational. When a study is designed to look at the relationships
between two or more variables.
A public opinion poll that compares what proportion of males and females say they
would vote for a Democratic or a Republican candidate in the next presidential
election is essentially studying the relationship between gender and voting preference.
3. Causal. When a study is designed to determine whether one or more
variables (e.g., a program or treatment variable) causes or affects one or
more outcome variables.
If we did a public opinion poll to try to determine whether a recent political
advertising campaign changed voter preferences, we would essentially be studying
whether the campaign (cause) changed the proportion of voters who would vote
Democratic or Republican (effect).
11. Focused on a single problem or issue.
Researchable using memory and/or secondary
sources
Feasible to answer within timeframe and practical
constrains
Specific enough to answer thoroughly
Complex enough to develop the answer over the
space of a paper or thesis
Relevant to your field of study and/or society
more broadly.
All research Question should be:
12. Evaluating a Research Question
• Research question must be as clear as possible.
• Research question must be specific enough to be well covered in the
space available
• Research question should be answerable
• Considering the available time frame and the required resources
• Research question should be measureable and will the process produce
data that can be supported or contradicted.
13. Formulating Research Question
Qualitative Study
• Usually starts with ‘what’ or ‘how’
(qualitative questions with ‘why’ as this implies cause and effect).
• Identify the central phenomenon you plan to explore (tell in your question what
you are going to describe, explore, generate, discover, understand).
• Avoid the use of quantitative words such as relate, influence, effect, cause.
For example: What are the experiences of people working night shifts in health care?
14. Quantitative Study
• Usually start with ‘ how,’ ‘what’ or ‘why’.
• Contain an independent and a dependent variable.
• Look at connections, relations or comparisons between variables.
For example: Does a stressful work environment lead to higher turnover rates?
15. Two types of quantitative study
• Correlational studies: A correlational study is non-experimental,
requiring the writer to research relationship without manipulating of the
research.
For example: What is the relationship between long distances trains and eating disorders?
• Experimental studies: Experimental studies are ones where researchers
introduce an intervention and study the effects. It requires the writers to
manipulate and randomly select the subjects of the research.
For example: Does the consumption of fast food lead to eating disorders?
16. Mixed study
A mixed methods research design is a procedure for collecting,
analyzing, and “mixing” both quantitative and qualitative
research and methods in a single study to understand a research
problem.
For example: What is the relationship between long distances
trains and eating disorders?
