Reason: interviews participants with in-depth questions and gives more qualitative research. This is to get personal answers and experiences from different victims. it might be a little time-consuming and the number of people to be interviewed would be minimal but it is relevant and necessary for the collection of such data.

4. data collection technique: questionnaires

Reason: Requires closed questions with multiple choice answers or rating skills. Consistent data will be collected and it would be easy to analyze the response after that. One example of a question that can be asked is “on a scale of one to ten, how familiar are you with the topic on obesity” or “has your school educated students on the risks of obesity” and the participants would vote yes or no to that.

5.data collection technique: Observation. Reason: Qualitative observation involves taking detailed notes and writing rich descriptions of what is observed. This means you don’t have to decide in advance how to categorize your observations. In theory, observations allow you to collect data on how people really behave (and not just how they say they do).

Topic:The relation between activities in a third-grade class and its students.

Research Question: What is the relation between activities in a third-grade class and its students?

Research Objectives: To find out the relevance.

Samples: Ideally, it is advised not to make conclusions merely based on correlational research.  This is because it is not mandatory that if two variables are in sync that they are interrelated.
Sources:
 1.This study investigated associations among third-grade teachers' (N = 27) symptoms of depression, quality of the classroom-learning environment (CLE), and students' (N = 523, Mage = 8.6 years) math and literacy performance. Teachers' depressive symptoms in the winter negatively predicted students' spring mathematics achievement. This depended on students' fall mathematics scores; students who began the year with weaker math skills and were in classrooms where teachers reported more depressive symptoms achieved smaller gains than did peers whose teachers reported fewer symptoms. Teachers' depressive symptoms were negatively associated with quality of CLE, and quality of CLE mediated the association between depressive symptoms and student achievement. The findings point to the importance of teachers' mental health, with implications for policy and practice.

2.A great deal of (independent) learning in higher grades of elementary school involves reading; pupils' reading motivation is therefore especially important in school The results of different studies show a decrease in reading motivation in older pupils and in boys, which can represent a serious problem for pupils' school achievement The purpose of our research was, therefore, to 1) test the validity of these results in Slovenian elementary school pupils; 2) examine the relation between reading motivation and reading efficiency and 3) find out which teacher's activities in the classroom enhance pupils' reading motivation 2355 pupils and 128 teachers from 24 Slovenian elementary schools participated in the study The results show the differences in reading motivation with regard to pupils' age and sex (younger pupils and girls report higher reading motivation) Also, pupils that report more motivation to read show higher reading efficiency In the third grade, the following teacher's activities are related to pupils' reading motivation: acting as a reading model for pupils and enhancing pupils' ability to read in class In the seventh grade, the following teacher's activities are related to pupils' reading motivation: teaching reading strategies, enhancing pupils' ability to read in class and giving opportunities to choose reading material.

3.Although several decades of research has highlighted the contribution of classroom behaviors to students' mathematics and reading performance, this relation with regard to writing performance has been examined to a lesser extent. Therefore, this study sought to examine a wide range of classroom behaviors as predict.

Qualitative research
Topic: contribution on feminism 

 

Research Question: how different people contribute to feminism 

 

Research Objectives: find out in what ways people with different genders contribute to feminism

 

Samples: there should be six kinds of people. Females, males, and agender 
 
Sources: 1. phasize the potentials and pragmatics of men engaging with feminism, in being and in action, to challenge unjust and unethical gendered structures or cultures of discrimination, domination and exclusion.
 
2. the best thing to do is ‘falling off into silence’ (Heath, 1987a: 30), to contemplate what I experience as difference, contradiction and impossibility in relation to being a male feminist, the barriers to practising ‘femmeninism’ (Kamuf, 1987).

1. It is very challenging to find and confirm the authority and timeliness of sources, which need to be compared and certified. It is very interesting to find examples to support your argument. You can learn about the country, society and individuals and help yourself to know more knowledge.

 

2. A research plan is pivotal to a research project because it identifies and helps define your focus, method, and goals while also outlining the research project from start to finish.

 Research Question: Why do people still smoke even after knowing its disadvantages to health?

 Research Objectives: to find out a smoker's perception [could be biased] and non-smoker's perception [unbiased] of why people smoke and conclude why they do so despite the health risks.

 Samples: smokers and non-smokers. the sampling method would be interviewed as it would require personal responses and thoughts from different participants so the answers are more genuine and it would not be consistent.

Blackwell quotes that smoking is his best friend. Blackwell perfectly embodies the predicament of how the smoking culture has changed, but his smoking hasn't. He is so closely associated with the habit he is featured in an elegant portrait series documenting smokers' lives. (Christensen J., 2015)

Evidence and campaigns highlighting smoking and second-hand smoke risks have significantly reduced smoking prevalence and denormalized smoking in the home in Scotland. However, smoking prevalence remains disproportionally high in socioeconomically disadvantaged

Children who are attracted to this adolescent assertion of perceived adulthood or rebelliousness tend to come from backgrounds that favor smoking. They also tend not to be succeeding according to their own or society's terms


Q1:  I find it challenging to find resources and I find it interesting to read a lot of interesting articles. Qualitative was harder and more challenging for our group as the sources were very limited and the sources were more linked towards the disadvantages of smoking rather than the advantages. 
Q2: This allowed our group to have a clearer plan and better plan some of the issues
