THE ELEMENTS OF

THE RESEARCH
METHODOLOGY
Research Methods
Strategies, processes or techniques
utilized in the collection of data or
evidence for analysis in order to
uncover new information or create
better understanding of a topic.
Research Methods
Introduce your Research Methods.

Give the conceptual definition.

Give the rationale why you choose


qualitative method.
Research Design
Select the appropriate qualitative research design for your
study and describe how it could solve the research problem.

Research design describes the specific framework that you will


follow to solve your research problem.

You may use qualitative research designs such as case study


method, ethnography, content analysis, phenomenological
study, grounded theory, or other qualitative designs that you
may see fit for the problem.

In this section, you will explain why you chose that specific design,
and how it could provide answers to your research questions and
research problem.
Research Design
Introduce your Research Design.

Give the conceptual definition.

Give the rationale why you choose the


design (Discuss appropriateness and how
it can help in your study.
Participants or
Respondents of the Study
This section describes who your respondents or
participants are, from which the data to answer the
research problem is collected.

The first step leading to the process of collecting


quantitative data is to identify the people and
places you plan to study. This involves determining
which group of people will you study, who,
specifically, these people are, and how many of
them you will need to involve
Participants of the study
Presentsthe respondents of the study

How did you choose the respondents


(Present the criteria used)
Present the profile of the respondents (always
observe proper ethical standards in presenting
identity of participants)
Sampling Procedure
Select the appropriate qualitative
research design for your study and
describe how it could solve the research
problem.
In this section, you will describe which
sampling method you implemented, and why
you chose to implement it. You can choose
between probability and non-probability
sampling types, depending on what is most
appropriate for your study.
Sampling Procedure
Present sampling method used.

Give conceptual definition of the sampling


method.
Present the Rationale in choosing this sample
method.
Discuss the procedure in the implementation of
the sampling method.
Make sure you observe proper sequence and
organization.
Research Instruments
A researcher instrument is a tool used to
collect, measure and analyzed data.
The selection and construction of data
gathering instrument is critical and crucial
in the research process.
The instrument you choose to collect the
data will depend on the research method
you will be using.
Data gathering instruments for qualitative
means open ended questionnaires,
interviews, observation, or any other forms
which to collect information (Jones, 1985)

Present the rationale and appropriateness


of the instruments.
Discuss the creation and validation of
instruments.
DATA GATHERING
PROCEDURE

- This section describes the entirety of how the data will


be collected and the steps leading up to it. Just like in
sampling procedure, this is written sequentially, or
according to order. Depending on the advice of your
research teacher, it can be written in essay form, or in
a numbered or bulleted list form. What is important is
that you can explain in detail how the instrument will
be used and data will be collected.
DATA GATHERING PROCEDURE

- You also have to explain the steps that led you to the data gathering activity.
- For example, if you have to submit a letter toward a specific person
requesting for consent for the data gathering activity, include this in the
narrative as well. If you are going to perform an activity with the
participants, or you have research team members that will work with the
participants, describe this as well in its entirety. If you are going to
implement other materials or equipment, describe what these are and what
their uses are.
- Describe the setup of your data gathering activity, including the settings and
other backup plans if ever your original procedure did not go as planned.
