 Ready to Launch!
Hello, it’s a brand new day for another learning researchers! After you had
planned your data– gathering procedure in your research project, you are now ready
to plan and present your chapter 3 also known as research methodology.

This lesson will teach you how to write your own research methodology. Are
you excited ? Let’s begin ...

Aim at the Target!

At the end of this module, you should be able to:

• plan data analysis using statistics (if appropriate)

• write a draft of research methodology

Try This!
Task 1. Hephep or Hooray !
Instructions. Read the statements below . Write Hephep if it is true and Hooray if
otherwise. Write your answers in your answer sheet.
1. Sampling is not important in research, you can choose whatever and
whoever you wish to include as respondents.
2. Quantitative research deals more in words or description of a certain
phenomenon.
3. The process of data collection must be presented well in the paper so that
the procedure is well-written and expressed.
4. Citing your sources from credible references will help your research paper
much in getting basis for your study.
 Keep This in Mind!

Research Methodology is also known as CHAPTER 3 of your research paper.

Your thesis or research paper needs to discuss the methods you used in
your research. The methodology chapter explains what you did and how you did it, allowing
your readers to evaluate the reliability and validity of the research. It should include:

The type of How Any tools or Your rationale

research you you collected materials you for choosing
did and analyzed used in the these methods
your data research

***The methodology section should generally be written in the past tense.

Step 1: Explain your methodological approach

• Begin by introducing your overall approach to the research.

• What research problem or question did you investigate? For example, did you aim to systematically
describe the characteristics of something, to explore an under-researched topic, or to establish a cause
-and-effect relationship? And what type of data did you need to achieve this aim?
• Did you need quantitative data (expressed in numbers) or qualitative data (expressed in words)?
• Did you need to collect primary data yourself, or did you use secondary data that was collected by
someone else?
 Step 2:Describe your methods of data collection

• Explain and describe your sampling methods in details

Example: The survey consisted of 5 multiple-choice questions and 10 questions that were measured on a
7-point Likert scale. The aim was to conduct the survey with 350 customers of Company X on the com-
pany premises in The Hague from 4-8 July 2017 between 11:00 and 15:00. A customer was defined as a
person who had purchased a product from Company X on the day of questioning. Participants were giv-
en 5 minutes to fill in the survey anonymously, and 408 customers responded. Because not all surveys
were fully completed, 371 survey results were included in the analysis.

Step 3: Describe your methods of analysis

• Indicate how did you process your data and analysis(Which software you used to analyze the data
(e.g. SPSS, Stata or R) and (Which statistical tests you used (e.g. two-tailed t-test, simple linear
regression)

Example: Before analysis the gathered data was prepared. The dataset was checked for missing data and
outliers. For this the “outlier labeling rule” was used. All values outside the calculated range were
considered outliers (Hoaglin & Iglewicz, 1987). The data was then analyzed using statistical soft-
ware SPSS .

Step 4: Evaluate and justify your methodological choices

• Your methodology should make the case for why you chose these particular methods, especially if
you did not take the most standard approach to your topic.

• Discuss why other methods were not suitable for your objectives, and show how this approach con-
tributes new knowledge or understanding.

***TIPS IN WRITING A STRONG METHODOLOGY

• Remember that your aim is not just to describe your methods, but to show how and why you applied
them and to demonstrate that your research was rigorously conducted.

• Focus on your objectives and research questions

• Cite relevant sources

• Write for your audience

• Discuss obstacles
Task 2. Twit-it
