馃攽 Research design is the overarching structure for a research project.

馃攳 Research methodology explains the assumptions made in the research design.

馃搳 Qualitative and quantitative methodologies are used in research.

00:01:02 The video discusses different research methods for collecting data, such as surveys, interviews, and observations. It also mentions the importance of using qualitative and quantitative approaches in research design.

馃攳 The choice of research methodology depends on the research question and desired outcomes.

馃搳 Mixed methods can be effective in collecting both qualitative and quantitative data for comprehensive analysis.

馃摎 Qualitative approaches, such as case studies and ethnography, are useful for understanding individual experiences and perspectives.

00:02:05 Research design explores the strengths and limitations of qualitative and quantitative approaches in understanding social environments, posing questions, and analyzing data for general assumptions.

馃攽 Qualitative approaches provide a rich understanding of a social environment and help build theories.

馃實 Quantitative approaches may not explain why things are the way they are, but they can provide generalizable findings.
