Data can be defined as the quantitative or qualitative value of a variable (e.g. number, images, words, figures, facts or ideas).
It is a lowest unit of information from which other measurements & analysis can be done
What is data-gathering?
![Page 13: Data gathering tools and uses](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042722/58a5a5171a28ab1a628b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Translate the research objectives into specific questions, the responses will provide the data required to achieve the research objectives
Provides descriptions of characteristics of individuals, institutions or other phenomena under study.
Useful for measuring the various variable to the study.
Why is data-gathering important?
![Page 14: Data gathering tools and uses](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042722/58a5a5171a28ab1a628b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Methods of Collecting QUALITATIVE Data
Data collection usually involves direct interaction with individuals on a one-on-one basis or with individuals in a group setting
Characteristics time consuming collected from a smaller sample more expensive.
Benefits of the qualitative approach is that the information is richer and has a deeper insight into the phenomenon under study

Observation Schedule A form on which observations of an object or a phenomenon are recorded.
The items to be observed are determined with reference to the nature and objectives of the study.
Grouped into appropriate categories and listed in the order in which the observer would observe them.
![Page 19: Data gathering tools and uses](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042722/58a5a5171a28ab1a628b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Checklist The simplest of all the
devices The presence or absence of
each item may be indicated by checking 'yes' or 'no' or multipoint scale.
The use of a checklist ensures a more complete consideration of all aspects of the object, act or task.

Interview Guide Usually non-directive and
serves as a suggestive reference or prompter during interview.
Aids in focusing attention on salient points relating to the study and in securing comparable data in different interviews by the same or different interviewers.
![Page 24: Data gathering tools and uses](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042722/58a5a5171a28ab1a628b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Structured (for research)
Semi-structured (flexible but structured)
Non-directive (free talk on issues)
Focused(in depth talk on an issues)

Focus Group Discussions (FGD)
It is an open discussion group of about 6-8 participants led by a neutral facilitator with ready questions that may or may not be in sequence
Focus groups combine elements of both interviewing and participant observation
![Page 27: Data gathering tools and uses](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042722/58a5a5171a28ab1a628b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Focus Group Discussions (FGD)
Focus groups combine elements of both interviewing and participant observation
The hallmark is the explicit use of the group interaction to generate data
Allows observation of group dynamics, discussion, and firsthand insights into the respondents’ behaviors, attitudes, language, etc.

FGD: Most Applicable When Identifying and defining
problems in project implementation
Pretesting topics Evaluation and
recommendations Interpretation of quantitative
findings Obtaining perceptions of
project outcomes Generating new ideas

Objective information on what the test taker knows and can do
match to a given curriculum or set of skills
Easily scored Accepted by the
public as a credible indicator of learning

On establishing a culture of research
“ Research has shown that it takes 31 days of conscious effort to make or break a habit.
That means if one practices something consistently for 31 days, on the 32nd day it does become a habit. Information has been internalized into behavioral change which is
called transformation.
