T&T, Week 3: Research Framework.

In this week's tutorial, we were taught about research framework where we learn the different types of survey we could do when interviewing or collecting primary research data. So, everyone in class will be separated into a group of 3 people where each of us will be handling an article topic based on research framework. The article's topics were Questionnaires, Qualitative Interview and Survey Research. After delegating the topics, we were told to create a mind map of the topic's article to further and simplifying the article.

The Article topic that I've gotten is Qualitative Interview which is a Research method that requires in-depth research of the subject given. And the mind map that I made is based on the ways to construct a Qualitative Interviews. The first one is conversation interview, where the interviewer is usually guiding the interview while interviewee will be answering the questions. The interview is mostly conversational, to make the interviewee to be more open up with their question so the data collected will be more useful and in-depth. Secondly, another way of getting a more Qualitative data is to have an open-ended question, which means researcher does not provide answer options. Like that individuals will answer the question based on their own words and sentences which could give the researcher a new perspective of the individual's thought on the subject matter. Finally, is to have a interview guide. An interview guide is like an Agenda where you cross of on what you have done for the research, and even though the list is not done accordingly it doesn't matter cause it's still in a process of trial and error which could be change or rearrange for new events.
