Research VS Inquiry
True or False. Both inquiry learning and the research process begin with questions.
True
If Quantitative research focuses on numerical data, what do qualitative data focus on?
Emotions, Opinions, Feelings, Feedback
It is geared towards finding strategies to address specific problems
Applied Research
It is used to explore variables under strictly controlled conditions through randomized controlled trials
Experimental Research
seeks to identify associations or relationship among variables.
Correlational Research
Research focuses on finding an effective way of expediting the _____________ process,
answer-finding
What is used to present experimental and non-experimental research?
Quantitative Research
Helps in getting knowledge without thinking formally of implementing it in practice based on the honesty, love and integrity of the researcher for discovering the truth.
Theoretical Research
based on a systematic review of existing sources of information on a particular subject
Documentary Research or Cabinet Research
defined by the collection of data directly from the source
Primary Research
On the other hand, inquiry is much broader. The focus is not on finding the ______ answer. The focus is on the process of exploration, solving a problem or query, and understanding something new.
right
It provides insights into the problem or helps to develop ideas or hypotheses for potential quantitative research.
Qualitative Research

Laboratory Research
A psychologist is interested in examining the relationship between social media usage and mental health among teenagers. (According to degree of Variable Manipulation)
Non-Experimental Research
A company is planning to launch a new product and wants to understand the existing market landscape. (According to the Source of Information)

Field Research
A pharmaceutical company is developing a new drug to treat high blood pressure and needs to test its effectiveness compared to a placebo. (According to degree of Variable Manipulation)

o Typing in relevant search terms
o Judging whether a website is safe, reliable, and current
o Skimming and scanning skills
o Reading snippets
o Checking for bias
It tends to be associated with pre-determined research design, using measurements and analyses in a systematic and logically ordered fashion that may be replicated relatively easily by other researchers.
Quantitative Research
A company hypothesizes that offering discounts will significantly increase sales for a new product. (According to the Type of Influence)
Hypothetical-Deductive Investigation
Health researchers aim to investigate the smoking habits of high school students in a particular region. Researchers will determine the situation based on the duration of their study.
Cross-Sectional Study
An educational researcher wants to determine which teaching method—traditional lecture-based instruction or active learning techniques—leads to better student outcomes. (According to Depth of Scope)
Comparative Research
