Assignment

hen conducting research, it is necessary to know the difference between qualitative and quantitative research methods.

 

This assignment has two parts.
Complete Parts 1 and 2 below.

 

Part 1: Identifying Qualitative and Quantitative Research Characteristics

Locate 1 qualitative and 1 quantitative research article on a topic in your program of study (e.g., DBA, DHA, DM, EDD) from the
University Library. Add the references to the articles you selected in the reference section of the
Research Outline Template.

 

Write a 700- to 1,400-word analysis about the articles in which you:

· Explain what characteristics make the study and research methods used quantitative.

· Explain what characteristics make the study and research methods used qualitative.

· Analyze the major differences between the 2 types of research methods.

 

Refer to
Quantitative and Qualitative Terminology for examples of qualitative or quantitative language that may be used in each article.

Note: Part 1 of this assignment needs to be submitted in a separate document using the
Student Paper Template. Provide properly formatted citations and references. You will be using the
Research Outline Template for Part 2 of the assignment.

Part 2: Supporting Selected Research Method Appropriateness

 

Using peer-reviewed journal articles, classroom materials, and information from the weekly overview, select a research method (qualitative or quantitative) that you might use to achieve your study purpose.

Write a 200- to 350-word explanation of the research method you selected and why this method appropriately aligns with your problem, purpose, and research question. To help justify your chosen methodology, you may find it helpful to review and use as guides a few finished dissertations in the
ProQuest database that used the same methodology you are considering. Substantiate your discussion and provide appropriate citations and references.

Incorporating feedback is essential and beneficial in the learning process and is an expectation throughout the dissertation journey. Reading feedback, reflecting on the feedback, and then properly incorporating the feedback will help to progress through the dissertation journey and improve your writing, critical thinking, and APA formatting skills.
