SDO LAGUNA STEM-P RESEARCH I WORKSHEET


QUARTER 3
Hi, there my dear student! Today, you and your classmates will begin a new week of distance learning. We are all physically away from
each other do not think that you are alone in this learning journey, other students are learning with you, too. And also I will closely guide and assist
you in your lessons. Please be guided by the following:
  This study guide will help you with the flow of the activity and the lesson.
 Answer the activities on a separate sheet of paper. (Please take care and do not write anything on your
module and other activity sheets.)
 If you see this icon you are free to reach me if you need my assistance. You can find my contact no. on your
class schedule. (You can also reach me out through social media platforms.)
 Expect to receive a phone call or a text message from me for the follow-up.
 Compile all your answer sheets at the end of the week and wait for the announcement when to submit them.

Time allotment: 4 hours/week Let us make learning research fun and exciting!

What you need to learn?


the week you should be able to
O Define data collection and data collection frequency;
O Determine and identify methods of gathering data;
O Organize qualitative and quantitative data from actual observations.

Lesson: METHODS OF COLLECTING DATA


TIME AND FREQUENCY OF COLLECTION

Lesson Steps

Start Up!
Group Me! Which of the following variables are qualitative and quantitative?
.
a. Sex Qualitative Quantitative
b. Educational attainment
c. Brand of shampoo
d. ID number
e. Student number
f. IQ score
g. Height of a tree
h. Number of years in school
i. Zip code
j. Rank of teachers
k. Speed of boat
l. Place of residence
m. Weight of package
n. Religion
o. Monthly income

One of the things which a researcher usually does in the initial stages of statistical inquiry is to define
the variables relevant to his problem. Any quantity which may take on different values is a variable; that
which does not vary or is fixed is constant. There are two major classifications of variables: qualitative and
quantitative. The nature of the problem, the objectives of the researcher, the type of data required, and the
sources of these data should all be considered in choosing the data-gathering techniques.

SO LET’S KEEP GOING, THERE’S FUN IN LEARNING!


First things first…Name It to Win It

Guess a word or phrase based on visual clues representing letters, syllables or words.
Example:

+ + = SCIENTIFIC METHOD
-ST -TURE -HEL
(Scientist (Picture) (Helmet) (Toad)
)

+ + =
1.
-TEL

+ =
2.
-D

3.
+ O+ + Y=
-ic

Let’s get to know about some of the Methods of Collecting Data and
Time and Frequency of Collection

Read the information presented below.


Collection of Data

Based on the data you want to collect, decide which method is best suited for your research.

 Experimental research is primarily a quantitative method.


 Interviews/focus groups and ethnography are qualitative methods.
 Surveys, observations, archival research and secondary data collection can be quantitative or qualitative
methods.

Carefully consider what method you will use to gather data that helps you directly answer your research questions.

agencies or research organizations.

Time and Frequency of Data Collection

Data collection sheet is a tool that is used to collect and organize data. It can also be defined as a worksheet that helps
you to collect, process, and make sense of information from multiple data resources.

Data collection sheets are very useful in quantitative research because they help you to gather, record, and organize
different numerical values from the research variables. This makes it easier for you to arrive at your research outcomes.
Common types of data collection sheets include check sheets, tally sheets, and frequency tables.

TYPES OF COLLECTION SHEET


Check Sheet

Check sheet is a tool that is used to collect data from respondents in real-time. It also
records the location where the data was collected from, and most times, it is usually a
blank form that is designed for the quick, easy, and efficient recording of the desired
information.

A checklist serves as an effective tool when collecting data on frequency and identifying
patterns of events, problems, defects, and defect location, and for identifying defect
causes.
Tally Sheet

A tally sheet is a type of check sheet that is used to record quantitative data from form
respondents. Quantitative data refers to data that can be quantified; that is an information
set that has numerical or statistical value.

Frequency Table

A frequency table is a statistical tool that is used to collect information on the number of
times a research variable occurs in the research environment. This data set, when
interpreted, can provide great insights into consumer behavior patterns in market research,
among other things.

Who am I?
What method (s) of collection is/are appropriate for
the following data?

____________1. Number of car-owners in 1980.


____________2. Behaviors of high school students during earthquakes.
____________3. Sources of livelihood of 50 people in Barangay Tahimik.
____________4. Qualities of soap which sample of 500 housewives look for.
____________5. Educational attainments of a random sample of 25 bank managers.
____________6. Number of companies belonging to a certain industry in the Laguna.
____________7. Comparison of effectiveness of Drug A to Drug B in relieving muscle pains.
____________8. Ages and present occupations of the heads of 2500 households in a community.
____________9. Opinions of a sample of 10 businessmen regarding the present political situation.
____________10. Average time required by each of the five workers in an auto repair shop to complete a repair job.
