1.1
Please list at least 3 research methods you have used on the course so far.
Primary research When I made my horror poster, I showed people in the class my design to see if they
liked it. I did make some changes when I showed it to my teacher.
Secondary research I found using worksheets helped me on the Blair Witch Project. All 7-worksheet
helped me focus on what I needed to look at.
Contextual Research Before we made our trailer, we looked at shot types, this was helpful for making
videos.

What is qualitive research?
Qualitative research is a type of research that aims to gather and analyse non-numerical data in order to gain
an understanding of individuals' social reality, including understanding their attitudes, beliefs, and motivation
Sourced from Google.
I understand this as open questions on forms or surveys it qualitive because there is more detail.
