After going through this module, It is our desire that this module on Practical
you are expected to be able to: Research 1: Qualitative Research will provide you with a
1. share research experiences general understanding of how to conduct practical qualitative
and knowledge research and possibly even encourage you to undertake a
2. explain the importance of
research in daily life study that may have been thinking about doing.
3. describe characteristics,
processes, and ethics of research Research is a delightful way to discover valuable
4. differentiate quantitative learning and skills. Through this subject, you help develop
from qualitative research your abilities in establishing connections, listening, writing,
5. provide examples of and observing which the primary elements are needed in the
research in areas of interest (arts, qualitative research process. You will find out how to conduct
humanities, sports, science, practical researches that you can apply in your specific track.
business, agriculture and fisheries,
Often, when we find out that we are going to engage in
information and communication
technology, and social inquiry) research, we immediately worry and put on a skeptical face. It
is our goal to replace that worry with excitement, skepticism
with confidence. You will discover how much fun it is to do
research as we eagerly learn new things and develop a new
and better perspective about research.

Every day you encountered various problems in any facets of life be it social, political, environmental and
personal. It may link between persons, groups or an organization. In this case, there must be a solution not only to resolve
it but can be a progress that everybody benefited from it. As a learner how can you find a solution to these problems that
is based on knowledge not on ordinary beliefs, predictions or theories? You need to have this knowledge through
organized and well-planned procedures that are accurate and useful. Thus you need to do research.
Research is asking what you know and think. It helps us to inquire on the right information. It is of great importance to
man in everyday life. The quality of man’s life is improved through research making it easier and valuable from simple to
modern. Research develops you to an attitude to not believe everything easily available and seek for truth - Research
sharpens our mind to give a judicious vision to look. It is a catalyst in solving complex issues in different sectors including
health, communications, business and the environment.

Research has two broad methodologies; qualitative research and quantitative research.
Quantitative and qualitative researches are complementary methods that you can combine in
your research studies to get results that are both wide-reaching and profound. To get the best
results from these methods in your research, it’s important that you understand the differences
between them which you will study in this lesson.

 What’s New? I. When to use Qualitative vs. Quantitative Research

Quantitative data can help you see the big picture.

Qualitative data adds the details and can also give a human voice to your survey results.

III. Similarities: Qualitative Research and Quantitative Research

1. Both have the process of inquiry and investigation.

2. Both improve life and help us in understanding various issues of life and in giving solutions to
our problems
3. Both start with a problem and end with a new problem.
4. Both use textual forms in analyzing and interpretation of data.
7. Both use inductive and deductive methods of presenting data.
