📚 Conduct research by utilizing online resources like Google Scholar and free websites.
💡 Formulate the problem statement or research questions related to the chosen topic.
🔍 Conduct a survey of literature by reading numerous articles, research papers, and journals online.
00:05:01 This video discusses the steps in conducting research, including hypothesis formation, research design, sample design, and data collection methods for qualitative and quantitative research.
🎯 The hypothesis is that there is a relationship between a teacher's personal traits and learners' learning.
⏳ Qualitative research requires more time compared to quantitative research.
💰 Qualitative research is more costly compared to quantitative research.
🔍 The appropriate sample design for research can be either random sampling or stratified sampling.
📊 For qualitative research, data is collected through interviews and observations, while for quantitative research, questionnaires and surveys are used.
00:07:32 Conducting research involves data collection, execution, analysis, hypothesis testing, and presenting results and conclusions.
📊 Data collection in research involves using questionnaires and surveys to gather quantitative data.
⏰ Time management is crucial in research, as following a timeline is necessary for successful execution.
🔍 Analysis of data in qualitative research involves thematic analysis, while quantitative research requires statistical analysis.
🔬 Testing hypotheses allows researchers to determine if their initial assumptions are correct.
📚 Generalizations and interpretations are presented in the final stage of the research process.
00:10:03 Learn the steps in conducting qualitative and quantitative research, including choosing research methods and designs.
🔑 The final step is submitting the completed research paper.
📚 Qualitative research focuses on grounded theory, narrative research, observation, text analysis, interviews, focus group discussions, and conceptualization of visual data.
📊 Quantitative research involves designs like descriptive, correlational, true experimental, and quasi-experimental.
00:12:34 This video discusses the steps in conducting research, including determining sample design, data collection, and data analysis methods for qualitative and quantitative studies.
🔍 In qualitative research, sample size is small, with three respondents per interview and one participant for a case study.
📊 Quantitative research requires a large sample size and deals with numerical data, using surveys and experimentation.
📝 In qualitative research, the researcher collects data through observation and interviews, while in quantitative research, a research assistant can be involved.
📚 Qualitative research analyzes data thematically, while quantitative research focuses on statistical analysis.
👥 Both qualitative and quantitative research require the preparation of a report.
00:15:06 This video explains the differences between qualitative and quantitative research and emphasizes the importance of health information access. Grade 12 learners are encouraged to participate in a recorded activity to improve their scores.
💡 Qualitative research emphasizes the use of words to gather information, focusing on respondents' perspectives.
📊 Quantitative research, on the other hand, involves numbers and the interpretation of those numbers.
🗂️ Grade 12 learners are advised to continue with the activity mentioned previously.
