RESEARCH DATA
Research Data refers to the kinds of
information researchers obtain from
the subjects of their research.
Here are some examples of the formats
that data can take:

RESEARCH
INSTRUMENT
Data-gathering instruments for
qualitative research means open-ended
questionnaires, interviews,
observation, or any other forms which
are used to collect information.

QUALITATIVE
01. QUESTIONNAIRES
Qualitative questionnaires attempt to
elicit more in-depth responses and are
usually designed to find out what has
changed as a result of the program, what
the mentees have learned, and what they
are doing differently.

02. INTERVIEWS
An interview is a conversation for gathering
information. It is an appropriate method when
there is a need to collect in-depth information on
people’s opinions, thoughts, experiences, and
feelings. It is useful when the topic of inquiry
relates to issues that require complex
questioning and considerable probing.

Participant Observation
• Researcher becomes a participant in the culture or
context being observed
• Requires researcher to be accepted as part of culture
being observed in order for success

Data Analysis
Qualitative data analysis can
therefore be defined as the process of
making sense out of collected pieces
of subjective information.
CODING
It is defined as classifying or categorizing
individual pieces data coupled with some kind
of retrieval system (Babbie, 2016, p.387). It
is done by classifying qualitative data such
as interview responses, field notes,
pictures, or symbols, into themes or concepts
that they convey.
Coding is done repeatedly until major
patterns arise.
“The pandemic placed a big financial strain on my
family. As my father lost his job as a cameraman in
a TV network, we became two months behind rent
payment, the electric and water bills started to
pile up, and my sister chose not to enroll for her
next semester at college.”
Goodluck!
