PART 11 ESSAY : Read and answer the given items below comprehensively.

1. What are the research blank spots (unexplored area ) in the literature?

There are a few blank spots( unexplored area) that can be gleaned from the section that
has been shown. The study does not allow access to the inner thoughts and feelings of
the key participants. The research does not allow participants to empathize with and
comprehend the challenges that home-schooled students face in general. Furthermore,
it ignores the various challenges and consequences that homeschooling has on students,
parents, guardians, and other stakeholders. Furthermore, we must recognize that the
study does not encompass all of the other distinct components that are crucial to a
student's growth and development, as this study's major focus.
2. What are the research blind spots ( conflicting areas ) in the literature?

With regard to the data provided, there are a few blind spots that we must address.
These are things that can't be seen or spoken due to the method, definitions, or
theoretical approach. Having said that, this study is unable to explain why the outcomes
are as they are. It is unable to explain why home-schooled children outperform their
non-home-schooled counterparts. It does not explain why the former is statistically
superior to the latter in this particular area. Although it acknowledges that an exact
number may have a role in such outcomes, it doesn't go into detail about why the test
scores are as they are. It also doesn't explain why there's such a big difference between
the two.

3. Given the title :”Collaborative Partnership : A Model for School Teacher Education and
Professional Development” ( Mellita Jones,2009 ), read the content of the theoretical
framework and answer the given questions .

a. What are the possible variables here? 

      Collaborative Plan
      Constructivist Approaches
      Professional Development
 
 
b. What theory/theories can be used here? Explain the theory.

S r+ Generalized imitative responses occur because they automatically produce

imitative reinforcer . Imitative reinforcers : stimuli arising from the match between the
behavior of the imitator and the behavior of the model that function as reinforcers.
      I believe this theory is implementing the techniques or strategies of choosing the
best teacher to collaboratively construct the best science teacher for professional
development. It is also improving professional practices. 
It also uses action-reflection learning theory, a practice which helps one to become a
better learner through reflection, assumption testing, and question asking by solving real
problems.
3. Point out the differences between the following paired terms:
1. Likert scale – Semantic differential scale
Likert Scale
1. A Likert scale will provide you with the
participants’ agreement or disagreement
with the asked statements.
2. There can be response biases in relation
to acquiescence and social desirability
2. Interval scale – Nominal scale
INTERVAL SCALE
1. It is a system of assigning number to the
variable to label them for identification
and ranking based on a scale having
equal interval size with arbitrary zero.
2. Can be measured and ranked/ordered.
3. We can know bigger value and also how
much bigger they are.
4. Variable is categorized in different
subgroups in ascending or descending
order and intervals between the
successive categories are equal and
constant.
Semantic Differential Scale
1. A Semantic Differential scale will provide
you with information on where your
participants’ view lies on a continuum
between two contrasting adjectives.
2. Requires higher cognitive demand from
your participants due to the abstract
level of interpretation between the
wording of the end labels.
NOMINAL SCALE
1. It is a system of assigning number to the
variable to label them only for
identification and to distinguish them
from each other
2. They cannot be measured or ordered
but can be counted
3. Data can reflect that they are different
from each other but cannot be ordered
as smaller or greater.
4. Here, categories are designated with
names or numerals but ordering of
categories is meaningless i.e. there is no
order
3. Standardized test –Researcher-made test

Standard Test Researcher made test

1.Constructed by Experts and subject
specialist.
2.Good Quality is ensured and very
high.
3. Items are pre-tested and selected
on the basis of their effectiveness
(using item analysis)
1. Constructed by the researcher.
2. Quality is unknown and lower than
the standard test.
3. Items are not pre-tested and
selection of items are not effectively
done.

4. Interview guide – Questionnaire

Interview Guide Questionnaire

1. A formal conversation between the 1. Implies a form consisting of a series
interviewer and respondent wherein of written or printed multiple choice
the two participates in the question questions, to be marked by the
answer session. informants.
2. Oral 2. Written
3. Subjective in nature 3. Objective in nature
4. Commonly used in qualitative 4. Commonly used in quantitative
research research
5. Open ended question 5. Close Ended questions.
6. Cannot provide anonymity of 6. Anonymity of respondents
respondents.

5. Opinions – Statement

Opinions Statement
1. Uses language that produces an 1. Are likely use date, numbers, and
emotional effect. statistics
2. Makes value judgements 2. Describe events in objective
3. Predict future events language
4. Cannot be check for accuracy. 3. Don’t make predictions
4. Can be verified.
