LESSON 1.difference of quantitative with qualitative
- 2. LESSON OBJECTIVES define quantitative research. At the end of the lesson, you should be able to: describe the different characteristics of quantitative research.
- 3. REVIEW… What have you learned from your Practical Research 1 subject?
- 4. Practical Research 2 = Quantitative Research How would you define quantitative research?
- 5. What is quantitative research? Quantitative research is the methodology which researchers use to test theories about people’s attitudes and behaviors based on numerical and statistical evidence. Researchers sample a large number of users (e.g., through surveys) to indirectly obtain measurable, bias-free data about users in relevant situations.
