Mathematics in the Modern

World
Data Management
Collection and Presentation of Data
Learning Objectives:
By the end of the lesson, the students should
be able to:
• Apply basic statistical concepts and principles
in the collection of data.
• Prepare a survey plan and formulate a
questionnaire
• Distinguish the different sampling methods
• Choose appropriate method in sampling
• Organize and present data using tables and
graphs
• Construct a frequency distribution table
Lessons Outline:
• Methods of Data Collection
• Sampling
• Methods of Presenting Data
• Frequency Distribution Table
Methods of Data Collection
• There are varied methods of collecting
data
• Factors to consider in collecting data:
1. the type of data needed
2. length of time
3. financial aspect
Characteristics of a good question:
• It is unbiased.
• It must be clear and simply stated
• It must be precise
Restate the following questions:
1. Do you favor the enrolment procedure
last semester which makes long lines
shorter?
2. Do you listen to boring classical music?

3. What is your academic performance last


semester?

4. Do you think male and female are equal?


Types of Questions
1. Recall type
2. Dichotomous type
3. Guided-response type
4. Multiple-response type
5. Free-response type
Examples:
Recall type
Please write the information needed:
Name: ____________________
Sex: ____________________
Age: ____________________
Civil Status ____________________
Dichotomous Type
Do you have an internet connection at
home?
______yes ______No
Example 1
Guided Response Type
Have you been late in going to school? If your answer
is Yes, answer the next question. If your answer is No,
proceed to question 4.
Example 2
The items below measures your attitudes towards
Physics. Read each item carefully and place a check
mark on the column that best describes how you feel
using the scale below:
Statement 5 4 3 2 1
Item 1
Item 2
Multiple-response type
The respondents are allowed to choose
more than one response.
Example
What electronic gadget/s do you have?
Please check mark before the gadget.
______ cellphone
______ laptop
______ desktop
______ digital video cam
Free response type
The respondents is allowed to answer a
question in any way he wants. He is not guided in
giving his/her reply.
Types of Data according to source
1. Primary Data
- are collected from the original source
of data, which is first-hand in nature.
2. Secondary Data
- are collected from published or
unpublished sources

Give examples of primary and secondary


data,
Important points to consider when
collecting data
• If measurements of some characteristics are
needed, better results will be achieved if the
researcher does the measuring instead of
asking the respondents for the value.
• The method of data collection used may delay
the process.
• Avoid a method that would produce low
response rates.
• Ensure the sample size is large enough for the
required purpose.
Methods of Data Collection
1. Interview Method
2. Questionnaire Method
3. Registration Method
4. Observation Method
5. Experimentation Method
1. Interview Method
• This is a method of gathering information
where there is an oral communication between
the researcher and the respondents.
• It may be direct or indirect
• This method will give us precise and
consistent information because clarifications
can be made.
• This method may be time consuming,
expensive and has limited field coverage.
2. Questionnaire Method
• This is a method where written answers
are given to set of prepared items or
questions called questionnaire.
• This method requires less time and is
inexpensive
• There is a probability of low response
rate or non-response.
3. Registration Method
• Consists purely of perusal of existing records
of an agency or person
• Data are readily available.
• The advantage of this method is that
information is kept systematized and made
available to all because of the requirement of
the law.
Examples are the records of births, deaths,
motor vehicles, marriages and licenses.
4. Observation Method
• This is a method used which observes
the behaviour of individuals or
organizations in the study.
• In certain situations, the person
collecting the data may act as a
participant observer to get a first hand
experience of the event he/she is
studying.
5. Experimentation Method
• This method is used when the objective of the
study is to determine the cause and effect of
certain phenomena or event.
• It involves setting up an experiment by
employing the three basic principles of
experimental design, namely randomization,
replication and error control in order to obtain
relevant and objective information from the
experiment.
• Requires the use of devices and equipment
• Scientific researches usually use the
Carrying out a survey
1. Form a group.
2. Work together to prepare a survey plan
3. Choose between interview and questionnaire
method in collecting data
4. Develop your instrument
OUTPUT:
a. Title of Survey
b. Purpose (what and why you want to
do it)
c. Define your Population and Sample
d. The Instrument
(Interview Questions or
Questionnaire)
