Research Design Project: Sampling, Measurement, and Data Collection Type Matrix Assignment Instructions

Overview

The main assignments for this course are wrapped into the Research Design Project. This project has three pre-matrix tables that will inform three matrices. Each table and matrix address basic and applied research that is quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, action research and/or program evaluation. For each table, you will be finding education research articles on the same topic using the specified research design(s). For the matrices, you will be identifying methods information and critiquing the studies. This assignment helps you learn how to evaluate research, identify the main components of good research, and start building your literature review.

Instructions

For this RDP: Sampling, Measurement, and Data Collection Type Matrix assignment, you will use the following articles that you identified in the three pre-matrix tables:

1.     You will use the following research articles that you identified in the three pre-matrix tables:

a.      From the RDP: Quantitative Pre-Matrix Table 

                                                    i.     Select 1 QUANtitative Basic (QUAN-B)

                                                   ii.     Select 1 QUANtitave Applied (QUAN-A)

b.      From the RDP: Qualitative and Mixed Methods Pre-Matrix Table

                                                    i.     QUALitative Basic (QUAL-B)

                                                   ii.     QUALitative Applied (QUAL-A)

                                                 iii.     Mixed Methods Basic (MM-B)

                                                 iv.     Mixed Methods Applied (MM-A)

c.      From the RDP: Action Research and Program Evaluation Pre-Matrix Table

                                                    i.     Action Research (AR-QUAN)

                                                   ii.     Action Research (AR-QUAL or AR-MM)

                                                 iii.     Program Evaluation (PE-QUAN)

                                                 iv.     Program Evaluation (PE-QUAL or PE-MM)

2.     For each research article, you will provide the following information using the RDP: Sampling, Measurement, and Data Collection Type Matrix Template:

a.      Article Type

b.     Article Name 

c.      Sampling Procedure (what type of sampling was used)           

d.     Participants (who, how many, from where)

e.      Intervention (details if one was carried out; not all of them will have information for this section)          

f.       Measurements/Instruments (assessments, surveys, questionnaires, observation protocol, structured/semi-structured interview protocol, document analysis           

g.     How Data Collected (how was the data collected, when, by whom, etc.)

h.     How Data Analyzed

3.     Biblical Integration

4.     References (for biblical support)

Be sure to give explicit details that are paraphrased.

 

Current APA formatting is expected throughout your paper. The Sample Research Design Project: Sampling, Measurement, and Data Collection Type Matrix has been provided for your reference.

Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
