Methodology
In week 1, you selected a topic and developed a research question for that topic. Then, you developed a data gathering instrument to measure the question either quantitatively or qualitatively.
Now that you have had the opportunity to read how scholarly methodologies are written, you will write a condensed 3–4-page methodology section for your research question using the required headings.
The importance here is to focus on the content, not necessarily the organization.
2. Develop a 3–4-page (more is fine) methodology section that includes the following:
Research Paradigm (qualitative or quantitative)
Notes: Choose Qualitative or Quantitative based on what methodology you plan to use for your actual topic. You may not choose to do both qualitative and quantitative (mixed-methods)
Research- or project- Design
Sampling Procedures and
Data Collection Sources
Statistical Tests Summary (quantitative) OR Data Organization Plan (Qualitative).
Notes: If you chose a quantitative research paradigm, you must choose a quantitative statistical test summary option in this section. If you chose a qualitative research paradigm, you must choose the qualitative organization plan option in this section.
