Reviewer for Practical Research 2  Discussion of the data from the table
(Quarter 2)  When you want to show the reader in detail
 The Thematic Analysis is a method of
analyzing a qualitative data. It is usually
applied to a set of texts, such as interview or
transcripts.
 The researcher closely examines the data to
identify the common themes-topics, ideas,
and patterns of meaning.
 Meaning Unit represents the abstract ideas
within the data. In thematic content analysis,
unit are defined thematically which means
they represent chunks of narrative or story-
like content.
 Condensed Meaning are the information
that is being processed based on the meaning
unit or data corpus
 Data corpus is the collection of transcripts
or texts
 Transcriptions is the process of converting
audio recordings of interviews or discussion
to text format.
 Coding is the process of labelling and
organizing your qualitative data. The goal is
to identify different themes and the
relationship between them.
 Summary includes the introduction, general
problem, scope and limitation, chapter III
(past tense of the verb)
 Findings are the results of your data
gathering.
 Conclusion explanation of your findings
 Recommendation are the facts that the
researchers wanted to recommend based on
the findings and conclusion.
 Data and results of your analysis are the core
of your study.
 As a researcher you need to put your
findings mean into words or illustrations.
 In order to create and present an organized
picture of information from a research
report,
 it is important to use certain techniques to
communicate findings and interpretations of
research studies into visual form.
 Parts of the table
o Table number
o Title of the table
o Table
how your independent and dependent
variables interact
 When to Use Data Tables
o Tables are not restrained to a specific
type of data or measurement.
o Since tables really need to
be read, they activate
the verbal system.
 Line Graph
o When you want to illustrate a change
over a continuous range or time, a
line graph is your best choice.
o Changes in different groups or
samples over the same range or time
can be shown by lines of different
colors or with different symbols.
 Bar Graph
o It uses bars to compare categories of
data.
o It may be drawn vertically or
horizontally.
 Pie Chart
o A pie chart is usually used to show
how parts of a whole compare to
each other and to the whole.
o The entire circle represents the total
and the parts are proportional to the
amount of the total they represent.
 GANTT chart
o It is a bar chart popularized in the
early 1900s by Henry Gantt.
o It lets you establish a detailed project
plan according to when you need
each task complete.
 Purposes of Hypotheses
o They guide you on which aspect of
the research to focus on
o they provide opportunities to provide
relationship between variables
o they push for empirical study to
prove the existence of relationship in
variables
 Data are pieces of information or facts
known by people in this world.
 technique in collecting quantitative data
o Observation
 o Survey
o Experiment
 A Questionnaire is a paper containing
series of questions formulated for an
individual and independent answering by
several respondents. In this type of
quantitative data collection technique
instrument yielded responses in numeral
forms and categories are subjected to
statistical analysis.
 data collection technique for quantitative
data
o pre-test
o post-test
 A Hypothesis states your predictions about
your research
o Null hypothesis no significant
relationship
o Alternative hypothesis significant
relationship
 nominal scale categories
 ordinal scale ordered categories
 interval scale differences between
measurements but no true from zero
 ratio scale differences between
measurements
 Sample is the group of individuals who will
actually participate in the research
 The Population refers to the entire group or
set of individuals included in the research
 Sampling means selecting the group that
will actually collect data from your research
