SCOPE AND SEQUENCE

Course Code Course Title Units Pre-requisite

QM 201 QUANTITATIVE METHODS 3

This course provides an introduction to the use of quantitative methods in research. Emphasis will be on achieving an
Course Description understanding of quantitative methods and associated statistical techniques considered so that you can think critically about
suitable procedures for research design, collection and analysis of data, and the usefulness of statistics.

At the end of the course, the students will be able to:

1. Explain and discuss the researcher’s work (model)
2. Elucidate basic statistical concepts and tests used in educational research
3. Use statistics programs
4. Demonstrate their competence and confidence in using descriptive statistics
Learning Outcomes 5. Demonstrate their competence and confidence in using inferential statistics in general and to the use of significance testing in
particular
6. Understand and master the handling of data and employ proper analyses
7. Use output derived from statistical procedures and convert such output to understandable statements in English
