The speaker is very amazing! I attended so many research activities and workshops, but still, I learned a lot. Dr. Thien inspired me to try and try and try research writing. But to be specific, i learned that using the right method is very essential for scopus/wos publication. Learning more on statistics as well as SEM and others are now new challenge to me. She is very down to earth and very much PASSIONATE in sharing everything to the participants! KUDOS Dr. Thien! Thank you and God Bless you more!

I am amazed by the lecture presentation and profound discussion of Dr. Thiem about quantitative research.  There are numerous takeaways I got from her teaching which I could use in embarking research in the future. Her outstanding expertise, as a researcher, encourages me to pursue this field. There are many misunderstandings that I read and learned in the past, but thanks to Dr. Thiem for correcting and bringing light and casting my doubt about conducting research.

You are such a great educator, a par-excellence lecturer, and highly knowledgeable in your expertise. You explained to us with such clear and mixed examples in detail and showed some of your work.

The big takeaways I got are the realization of knowing the culture and style of conducting research from different settings. Next is the comparison between quantitative and qualitative research based on their logical perspective,   characteristics, and conclusion.  Furthermore, the collection of data from different samples or groups (heterogeneous) and the validation and comparison of  the result to the larger samples are definite and exceptional.

It was indeed a worthy and comprehensive webinar that I could use and teach to my students in the future.

As I am watching and listening to the discussion of Dr. Thein, I have realized that there is more to learn about quantitative research and its content. Research and its process cannot be applied and created with just a single snap due to many limitations (time, skills, expertise and more) but Dr. Thein sparked my curiosity about the different possibilities that can be done to make it happen.

I have gained more confidence and hope to continue learning more about research and to finally write another one in the months/years to come.

Thank you for the new learnings, Dr. Thein.

I really do not have any technical background about research except the work I had at the Research Department. I am really eager to learn about this quantitative method and I am so glad to find the presentation of Dr. Thien as complete, extensive and well explained. I just do hope that we can be provided a copy of the recording if there is any so that we can review all the lessons she presented in this webinar. I shall be very grateful If I could be furnished with a copy of the recording because the topics, she discussed were what I actually needed. I am really grateful for this opportunity, and I am looking forward to the succeeding webinars. Thank you.

I want to thank Dr. Thien for clarifying many of the common misconceptions related to the conduct of research such as the difference between limitations and delimitations of a study. I also learned that a hypothesis is not just an ‘educated guess’ but a ‘well-informed’ statement that is based on data accumulated from previous studies.

Her lecture is very authoritative because she does not only discuss the theory behind a concept but it is replete with ample and concrete examples from her numerous publications.

Through the lecture of Dr. Thien, I realized that the research model or conceptual framework does not only provide a visual representation of the variables of the study and their cause-and-effect relationships but it clearly shows how to formulate the hypotheses. Moreover, I learned that every cause-and-effect relationship that is depicted in the conceptual framework must be supported by a testable theory that should be verified based on the result of the study.

Dr. Thinner ‘s lecture has been beneficial to us she was able to share some of study and materials and other sources in order to stablish facts.. furthermore it involves the collection, org and analysis of information to increase understanding of a topic.

# data[].attributes.body
The most important discussions made was about the hypothesis.  It confirmed with strong conviction that hypothesis is not a statement that express simple idea and not just a speculation to write differences and, or correlations between variables...but it is the main argument of the research...that needs to be investigated or probed. Alignment of the hypothesis to the purpose of the research is critical.

# data[].attributes.body
I have attended many webinars about research for continuous updating of knowledge and have been inspired by every speaker's revelation and sharing of their expertise and experiences. In yesterday's discussion and sharing of Dr. Thien Lei Mee, I paid attention to the difference between quantitative and qualitative research, which was expressed in their characteristics in the logic of theory construction, direction of theory construction, verification, concept, and generalization. The first day was extremely informative and refreshing, as it caused me to reflect on this type of research. Thank you very much, Dr. Thien, and congratulations to the REAP Webinar organizer.

Research allows you to learn something new, to challenge yourself in new ways, to foster critical thinking and analytical skills through hands-on learning. It is the pursuit of knowledge through analysis, observation, exploration, description and an unexplored ideas, facts or methodologies.

The discussant presented the subject matter clearly. The different research approaches discussed will enable you to evolve a proper strategy to carry out a definite work or project without digging too much into unnecessary things and take the right decision when the situations demand. In order for a researcher to conduct the research at scale, easily compare different groups (by age, gender, to name a few) to understand similarities or differences, reduce a complex problem or topic to a limited number of variables quantitative research should be used. Qualitative work deals mainly on social constructionism and interpretation. Whether it is quantitative or qualitative it is a fact that without research, one has to believe in his or her intuition or imagination which cannot be accurate. That is why research is important for scaling up performance and getting better results.

DAY 1 Self-Reflection..

I had the great privilege to attend this enlightening session with Dr. Thien on the first day of the REAP. Even though I was already familiar with quantitative research, I still learned a lot from her.

I feel inspired to continue studying and have quality time by her voice and the serene atmosphere. All of us are delighted that she was a notable, talented, and generous researcher who made contributions, especially to someone like me who was just starting out in her field.

I was optimistic for her second day of session. More blessings to her and this wonderful REAP program

kudos everyone!

# data[].attributes.body
From Day 1, I knew essential things in quantitative research that will enhance my writing skills in research. For example, in ways of learning about deductive which reasoning is from general to specific. Quantitative research relies on numerical data and used closed questions. When the researcher wants to measure patterns of behavior, quantitative is used in research.

I also learned the difference between quantitative and qualitative research and the characteristics of quantitative research.

I am familiar with the different parts of research, the terms related to research but if i will be  the one who will write a research, i find it difficult.
Every parts of tje research should be given careful attention so that the paper will be a realistic and comprehensive one.

I learned the importance of reporting the statistical results of the test comprehensively in order to convey the findings effectively.

One of the new and remarkable things I have learned yesterday is how to properly write Delimitation (which is only to write whatever choices that the researcher uniquely made in their study).
