Type of research

The objective of research is to discover the answer to question through the application of
scientific procedures. Each research study has its specific purpose. Some research objectives
are:
1. Exploratory research is to gain familiarities with the phenomenon or new insights on
it.
2. Descriptive research is to portray accurately the characteristic of particular individual
situation or group (describe a phenomenon as it is in the present).
3. Analytical research is to analyze information, critical information.
4. Applied research is to find solution to immediate problem.
5. Fundamental (pure/ basic research) is knowledge to knowledge (research for
knowledge only).
6. Quantitative research is to the phenomenon that can be measured.
7. Qualitative research is the qualitative phenomenon.
Descriptive research:
To describe a phenomenon as it exists in the
present, it means report what is happening.
Ex in business it is called ex post facto
research: research in the frequency of
shopping. We use the ethnographic style
method.
Applied research:
Find a solution for immediate problem for
example in social problem we use the
ethnographic style with questionnaire or
interviews, diaries

Analytical research:

fact or information.

Quantitative research:
Measurement of quantity or amount.

Qualitative research:
Qualitative phenomenon. Ex: why people
behave in a certain way.
Imperical research:

conclusion that can be verified. We use
experimental style approach.

Conceptual research:
Is to develop a new concept or reinterpret
existing once. It is used by philosophers or
thinkers.
Exploratory research:
To understand a phenomenon we use case
study, ethnographic style approach. And the
data collection is the diaries, observation or
open ended questionnaire. Ex: to understand
how students learn.

It is concerned with generalization and
formulation of theories. Gathering knowledge

Approach to educational resaerch :


Action research: the main aim is to solve problem when practitioners (teachers, doctors,
researchers.) identify it during the course of their work.
Case study: give the opportunity to one aspect of problem to be solved in a limited time.
Ethnographic style: is to study a society or an aspect of society where the researcher can be an
observer or an integrate participant.
Survey: the main aim is to obtain information which can be analyzed and results generalized.
The experimental style: deals with experiment where phenomenon can be measured.

Analyzing, interpreting, and presenting data.


Raw data taken from questionnaire, interview, schedules do not mean anything to a
researcher unless they have been placed into categories.

Quantitative: quantitative procedure, what do the numbers mean.
