Data Collection Methods (Read Carefully)

Help with Unit 7 Assignment (4 data collection methods)

Content:

1. There are 4 data collection methods.

2. There are “given” 4 scenarios.

3. Use only 1 method for each scenario (in other words, the combination method can only be used once). It is best to start with the combination method first and assign it to scenario that needs it most (for valid and reliable data collection). Then use the remaining 3 methods and match them up to 1 of the 3 remaining scenarios.

Structure:

1. Use a title page

2. Starting on page 2, provide each scenario (you can number them 1 – 4).

3. The provide a short paragraph under each scenario that:

a. Identifies the data collection method,

b. Describes the data collection method, and

c. Justifies why this particular data collection method is utilized.

4. Use a reference page

Format:

Do not use the words “we,” “our,” or “us.” You do not know who the reader is. You should not speak for the reader.

Do not use the words “I,” “me,” or “my.” This assignment isn’t about you.

Do not worry about the page count. Just answer the 4 scenarios using the 4 short paragraphs (1 for each).

Use at least 1 source. You text book is all you need to answer the 4 scenarios. But if you need to use more sources you should.

Cite your work as needed. Remember that our text book has 2 authors. Cite them both.

Proof read your work.

Try to remove unnecessary words.

Spell check. Use proper English and grammar.
