Research

and Design
OBJECTIVE
At the end of this chapter, the student is

S
expected to:
• Define research in relation to its goals and
purpose;
• Classify and differentiate the different types of
research;
• Demonstrate the characteristics of a good
research problem as well as that of a good
design; and
• Differentiate research with design.
• Discuss the format of Research
What is
Research?
Research is simply a
systematic and refined
technique of thinking,
employing specialized tools,
instruments, and procedures
in order to obtain a more
adequate solution to a
problem than would be
possible under ordinary
means.
What is
Research?
Research is a systematic
process of investigating
and studying materials,
sources, and data to gain
new knowledge, confirm
existing theories, or
develop new theories and
solutions.
Purpose of
Research
• Expanding Knowledge
• Solving Problems
• Verifying Facts and Theories
• Innovating and Developing
New Products
• Informing Policy and Decision-
Making
• Supporting Education and
Learning
• Testing Hypotheses and
Exploring Relationships
• Building New Tools and
Research often follows a
methodical process,
including:
• Identifying a research question or
problem
• Conducting a literature review to
understand existing knowledge
• Formulating hypotheses or objectives
• Designing an experiment or study
• Collecting and analyzing data
• Drawing conclusions and sharing
findings (e.g., through publications or
reports)

Types of
Research
Basically, there are three types of research; pure
research, applied research and action research.

used to collect data and conduct research.

ResearchMethods
Broadly, research methods fall into two categories: qualitative and
quantitative.
Quantitative Research
Methods
These methods involve the collection and analysis of numerical data and
often aim to identify patterns, test hypotheses, or establish relationships
between variables.
• Surveys/Questionnaires: Structured sets of questions aimed at
collecting data from a large sample of respondents.
• Experiments: Controlled tests designed to investigate cause-and-effect
relationships by manipulating one or more variables while keeping
others constant.
• Observational Studies: Systematic observation of subjects or
phenomena, usually without manipulation, to gather data in natural
settings.

quantitative.
Quantitative Research
Methods
These methods involve the collection and analysis of numerical data and often
aim to identify patterns, test hypotheses, or establish relationships between
variables.

• Content Analysis: Quantitative approach to analyzing textual, visual, or


multimedia content by coding and counting occurrences of particular
phenomena.
• Longitudinal Studies: Research that gathers data from the same
subjects repeatedly over an extended period to observe changes or
trends over time.
• Statistical Analysis: Use of mathematical models, algorithms, and statistical
techniques to analyze data sets for patterns, correlations, and trends.
ResearchMethods
Broadly, research methods fall into two categories: qualitative and
quantitative.
Qualitative Research Methods

These methods focus on understanding experiences, meanings, and


perspectives, often involving more descriptive or subjective analysis of non-
numerical data.
• Interviews: In-depth, structured, semi-structured, or unstructured
conversations with individuals to gather personal insights or detailed
information.
• Focus Groups: Guided discussions with a small group of participants to
explore their views, experiences, and reactions to a topic.
• Case Studies: In-depth exploration of a particular case (such as an individual,
group, or organization) in its real-life context over time.
• Ethnography: A method where the researcher immerses themselves in a
particular community or cultural setting to observe and interpret behaviors,

Quanlitative Research Methods

These methods focus on understanding experiences, meanings, and


perspectives, often involving more descriptive or subjective analysis of non-
numerical data.

• Narrative Analysis: Examining the stories or personal accounts people give


to understand how they construct meaning or describe events.
• Grounded Theory: An inductive method where researchers gather and
analyze data, then develop theories based on the patterns that emerge
from the data.
• Phenomenology: A method focused on understanding individuals' lived
experiences and the essence of particular phenomena.
ResearchMethods
Broadly, research methods fall into two categories: qualitative and
quantitative.
Mixed Methods Research

A combination of both quantitative and qualitative approaches to


provide a more comprehensive understanding of a research
problem. Mixed-methods research can be done by conducting
separate qualitative and quantitative studies or integrating both
methods in one study.
