Reflection 9-Communicating The Research Results: Research Presentation Abulencia, Jessa Mae P
Through a video presentation, the sixth group discussed the topic of data analysis. They
defined it as the most important aspect of any study as it makes studying the data more simpler
and more accurate. To put it simply, data analysis is the process of reducing complex research
material to its most basic and simplified form. This aids in the provision of proof and a better
understanding of the research.
Data analysis is the science of examining a set of data in order to draw conclusions
about the information in order to make decisions or simply to broaden one’s knowledge on a
variety of subjects. It entails putting data through operations. This is done to obtain precise
conclusions that will aid us in achieving our goals, such as operations that cannot be predefined
because data collection may reveal specific difficulties. The goal of data analysis is to reach a
conclusion based solely on what the researcher already knows. The method you use to collect
data should be related to how you intend to analyze and use it. You must also ensure that the
information you collect is accurate and reliable. Data analysis is the process of summarizing the
information gathered. It entails the interpretation of data gathered through the application of
analytical and logical reasoning to identify patterns, relationships, or trends. Research frequently
entails sifting through mountains of data, which is becoming increasingly difficult for
researchers to manage with each passing minute. As a result, knowledge of data analysis is a
huge advantage for researchers in the current era, making them very efficient and productive.
Looking at it in a broader sense, data analysis can be divided into two categories. There are two
types of data analysis: qualitative data analysis and quantitative data analysis. While the latter
deals with numerical data made up of numbers, the former is in non-text form. It could be
summaries, images, symbols, or anything else. Both types have different methods for dealing
with them. After you’ve analyzed your data, it’s time to draw your conclusions. Conclusions
summarize whether the results of the experiment or survey support or refute the original
hypothesis. Key facts from your team’s background research should be included to help explain
the results.
They have discussed the topic that assigned to them informatively. They have shared
great and good ideas. Also added some useful information.

They examined the aim of qualitative and quantitative research methods, as well as the
differences between them. how these help the research paper. According to them, qualitative
research is widely used in a variety of fields. Anthropology, sociology, education, and health are
examples of humanities and social sciences. The sciences, history, and qualitative research are all
concerned with acquiring and assessing non-traditional data. To better understand thoughts,
opinions, or ideas, numerical data such as text, video, or audio is used experiences. It can be used
to get in-depth knowledge of a subject or to generate new research. ideas. They also explained
how qualitative research differs from quantitative research. It's time to do some research. In the
scientific and social fields, quantitative research is commonly used. biology, chemistry,
psychology, economics, sociology, and marketing are among the sciences. as well as others
Quantitative data analysis is the process of acquiring and evaluating numerical data. research. It
may be used to find patterns and averages, create forecasts, and confirm causal relationships.
Links, as well as to extrapolate findings to broader populations. The process of evaluating a
method is known as methodology. Who are your target respondents, and what are the constraints
of your study?
And they said we could use it. By combining qualitative and quantitative research, this is known
as Mixed Method research. We must complete our education. There was a Triangulation Design,
an Embedded Design, and a Mixed Method Design. The Explanatory Design and the Exploratory
Design are two types of designs. The method of triangulation design is utilizing a variety of To
strengthen the credibility of a research project, many data sources or Data analysis approaches
are employed. Embedded Design necessitates the researcher's inclusion of If the study is
designated quasi-experimental, qualitative data should be incorporated into the scientific
investigation. Explanatory Design is a process that defines priorities for a previously un-
researched issue. develops operational definitions and produces a more thoroughly developed
model. It is a type of investigation. a layout that focuses on extensively presenting the many
aspects of your inquiry Exploratory When a researcher has no historical knowledge on a study
topic, design is used. Then there are just a few studies to refer to.
Datu, Shiela Marie D.
There appear to be two approaches to identify a gap in the literature: study, consult
experts, analyze the research goal, refute the evidence, and seek the aid of a reference librarian.
This includes putting together a slew of different elements into a unified whole. It is merely a
matter of summarizing and connecting several sources in chronological order; it is a matter of
synthesizing past discoveries. Synthesis is the process of merging many disparate components
into a whole; it is the process of concisely summarizing and connecting multiple sources in order
to review the literature on a topic, make recommendations, and tie your practice to the research.
It refers to qualitative and quantitative research approaches that investigate how relevant
research might be obtained by researchers. It refers to qualitative and quantitative research
approaches that investigate how primary data might be obtained by researchers. The first section
of this chapter looks at how researchers might get primary data and manage the sources. It
discusses qualitative research methods including surveys, observation, and the experimental
method, as well as individual and group interviews and participants. It refers to qualitative and

There are steps in knowing the gap in the literature, here are the step in finding the gap in the
literature, first is to read, talk to experts, consider the research agenda, contradictory evidence,
get a reference librarian's help, and the experimental method, as well as individual and group
interviews and participants. The main purpose of the literature review is to convey to the readers
that the work is already done with ideas and knowledge that have been established on a particular
topic of research; it is a document that is expected to be highly reliable concerning its sources
and findings. It refers to techniques used in qualitative and quantitative research which look at
ways for researchers to collect primary data. It is the collecting managing the sources, this
chapter begins by looking at ways researchers can collect primary data. It describes techniques
used in qualitative research including questionnaires, observation and the experimental method,
and in qualitative research including individual and group interviews and participants.

Research is defined as the systematic investigation into and study of materials and
sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusion. Generally, it aims to discover new
information, and knowledge while seeking answers to the growing problems and challenges in
the society. Above all, it mainly brings benefits to the concerned audiences, scholars, and even in
the academe. However, research has two main kinds which are qualitative research and
quantitative research which will be discussed later on with the addition of mixed method.
Based on the reporter, she defined qualitative research as a method of inquiry that
develops understanding on human and social sciences to find the way people think and feel. It
helps in developing and acquiring an in-depth information of the topic at hand. Along with it, the
sampling methods are also discussed. In addition, methodology - which are the procedures or
techniques used to identify, select, process, and analyze information, design of research - which
is the overall strategy integrated to the different components of the study, data collection process
- which is the process of gathering information in order to answer research questions, test
hypothesis and generate outcome, and data analysis process - which the process of applying
statistical and logical techniques to evaluate data, were also discussed. On the other hand,
quantitative research is defined as a method that emphasizes measurements and the statistical,
mathematical, or numerical analysis of data collected through polls questionnaires, and surveys,
or by manipulating pre-existing statistical data using computational techniques. It is more on
numeric variables, statistics and data is considered fixed and universal. It aims to classify
features, count them, and construct statistical models in an attempt to explain what is observed.
Moreover, it seeks a precise measurement and analysis of target concepts whereby data is known
as more efficient one. They have also mentioned the different data collection methods which
involves surveys, interviews, observations, quasi-experiments, classic experiments, and
secondary analysis and official statistics.
Furthermore, the different types of research design were also tackled which are classified
into four. Experimental research is said to be conducted in a controlled environment in order to
establish the cause-effect relationship. Quasi-experimental research is conducted in a natural
environment with an aim to establish cause-effect relationship and often involves comparing
outcomes of pre-existing groups. Meanwhile, correlational research is used to determine the
extent of relationship between variables. And lastly, descriptive research which is used to
describe characteristics, averages, and trend to name a few. They have also discussed the
different types of data collection methods which involves probability sampling, interviews,
survey/questionnaires, observations, and document review. And also, the two types of data
analysis namely descriptive and inferential statistics. They had also enumerated the mixed
methods which entails triangular design, the embedded design, explanatory design, and
exploratory design. To conclude with, through their discussion I am able to carefully
distinguished between the kinds of research. Along with it, the different methodologies, research
design, data collection and data analysis methods, and sampling methods are also given
emphasis. With the help of their topic, we will be able to be more guided in choosing which
particular method shall be utilized to a particular topic.
Group 9 discussed the "Quantitative Research Methods" of Dr. Melvin A. Vidar. The
presenters talked about the comparison of qualitative and quantitative research.
Qualitative research is concerned with words, pictures, or things and their meanings,
whereas quantitative research is concerned with numbers and figures. Quantitative research
methods enable systematic measurement of variables and testing of hypotheses. However,
qualitative research techniques enable you to probe deeper into people's ideas and feelings.
Qualitative research is a type of market research that collects data through open-ended and
conversational engagement. This technique takes into account not just "what" people think, but
also "why" they think that way. Take, for example, a fast food restaurant that wishes to expand
its client base. And, based on their observation, the number of the people ages 25-50 who
frequent this store is higher. One technique to figure out why younger and older people weren't
coming to the store is to conduct an in-depth interview with potential consumers in the category.
A claim that clarifies the problem addressed by a study is referred to as a statement of the
problem in research. A good research challenge should fill a knowledge gap in the subject and
lead to new research. Quasi-experimental research involves altering an independent variable
without randomly allocating people to different conditions or ranking them. Key types include
nonequivalent group designs, pretest-posttest designs, and interrupted time-series designs.
The presenters' video presentation is long, and that leads to the boredom of the viewers.
But, regardless of that matter, they discussed their assigned topic well.
The report of group 9 is about the comparison of qualitative and quantitative research. In
terms of the content of their report they explained their topic well. In terms of the flow of their
report, they make it somehow relaxing and unlike any other group that they put a lot of effort in
making their concept too creative. But because it is too relaxing I kind of feel sleepy listening to
their report. The reporters wear the appropriate clothes in the reporting. And like what I always
said in my reflections, wearing formal clothes is a must in our program to look nice and
professional in front of everyone, because we will somehow symbolize the product, services, or
company that we will offer in the future. Every day we face different people, so their first
impression of what we look like is one of the important things in our field. We should always
look like professionals. I noticed that they changed the background to an office workplace, which
compliments the formality of their clothes.
