Data Types
Qualitative: qualitative data are measures of ‘types’ and may be
represented by a name, symbol, or a number code.
Observation
Observation is one of the most important research tools in the social and
human sciences, having a vital role to play in helping to understand and
interpret the social, cultural and economic environment. Any research
benefits from observation, which entails use of senses to collect data from
the external environment, because this tool is widely used.
Zotero: - Zotero is an important tool which all online learners must have
to use. After that, everything necessary for you to spare it to your own,
completely accessible library, which is another element in Zotero, in one
click. It supports PDF documents, image formats, audio and video files.
DataElixir: - Perhaps the most ideal approach to stay up with the latest
with all the most recent news, improvements and information in science
is to discover a site that minsters those consistently.
Google Books: - With the help of Google Books, we can search the full
texts of many books and get results that are related to our research. For
books that are no longer under copyright, you can see the book
completely directly on the site; others you can purcecially the students
who are in the humanities and social sciences, do research of hihase or
discover in nearby libraries.
Research validity can be divided into two groups: internal and external. It
can be specified that “internal validity refers to how the research findings
match reality, while external validity refers to the extend to which the
research findings can be replicated to other environments”

Question# 02
What is the importance of sample in research? Discuss different
sampling
techniques in detail.
Answer
Sample:A small part or quantity intended to show what the whole is like.
Importance of sample in research:
Studies are conducted on samples because it is usually impossible to
study the entire population. Conclusions drawn from samples are
intended to be generalized to the population, and sometimes to the future
as well. The sample must therefore be representative of the population.
ampling bias occurs when the sample does not reflect the
or economic factors.

Question #03
INTRODUCTION
We all know the importance of education. It is a vital element in the
survival of any nation today. Education builds nations; determines the
future of the nation. That is why we must use our education policies very
carefully because our future depends on these policies. ISLAM also told
us that about Education and what is importance in orur life. The real
important of Education in ISLAM is “to know ALLAH” but I think in our
country we have truly lost. Our schools or madrassa’s (Islamic Education
Centers) do not really teach our youth about this. In schools, we just
prepare “Money” for them.
2. Problem Statemen
There are many examples of Islamic Scholars who not only study the
Holy Qur’an but also know other subjects such as Physics, Chemistry,
Biology, Astronomy and many more, with the help of the Holy Quran. I
think with the current education system we are narrowing down our
children’s path instead of raising it. Undoubtedly our children are very
talented, in schools and madrassas, we just need to give them the right
ways to prepare themselves, give them the space to be Quaid-E-Azam,
Allama Iqbal, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, Alberoni, Abnalhasam, or Einstein,
Newton, Thomas Edison. The education system we are working with is
no longer working. We need to find a way to close the gap between the
school and the madrassa. Robert Maynard Hutchins describes it as “the
ultimate goal of education for young people to teach themselves
throughout their lives.” We must give our youth a way to teach ourselves.
Edward Everett said, “Education is a better protection for freedom than
the military.” Sadly, in Pakistan we spend more budgets in our arms than
in education that reflects our vision for education !!! Since 1947 no
government has been able to change this situation. With bomb prices
about 20 to 30 children can go to school all year and another picture …. a
bomb can kill 20 to 30 adults !!!!!!. So a deadly bomb hurts in two ways
to stop children’s education and kill innocent people !!! Why don’t the
authorities think about this? Answer …. we all know that !!! Don’t we?
3. Objectives
We are not just teaching them to prepare for the “Financial Machine”. We
are increasing the burden of books on our children and we are just
enrolling in a famous, big school, what is it just socially ??? On the other
hand in our madrassas we are preparing for people who find it very
difficult to adapt to modern society. Sometimes they look like they came
from another planet. A madrassa student cannot compete even in our
country where the Earth is so far away from him. She finds it very
difficult to even talk to a schoolboy. It is very clear that Islamic
Education is necessary for Muslims but it is also true that without modern
education no one can compete in this world.
Methodology
Now let’s discus about our Policy makers, it seems they are not working
enough. Every year the education policy is reviewed by the government
but the results are the same …. The illiteracy rate is rising in Pakistan
according to a recent study. Someone starting “Nai Roshni School”,
someone starting “Parha Likha Punjab” etc. What should Pakistan teach?
Well, I don’t think so. These “People” have been playing with our nation
for the past 60 years simply for the sake of profit and ambition. Should
we also consider our children’s education now as we teach them
properly? If not, what should we do? We have to work now otherwise it
will be too late in PAKISTAN !!!
Research proposal :
A research proposal describes what you will investigate, why it's
important, and how you will conduct your research. The format of a
research proposal varies between fields, but most proposals will
contain at least these elements: Title page. Introduction. Literature
review.
1.The Title:
Try to come up with a title that is unique and at the same time easy to
remember. It should also make a lasting impression to the reader and
make them want to come back and read your proposal. The title must also
capture the main concepts of the study. As the research process
is lengthy, it is important that you choose a topic that you are so curious
about that you remain motivated for the duration of the research process.
Select a topic that you will be able to complete within the time
frame that you have for your research.
This section of the proposal must provide a broad overview of the topic.
The jargon and key terms used in the particular topic must also be
thoroughly explained in order to avoid confusion. The interest of the
researcher in the particular topic must also be clearly outlined while at
the same time mentioning, albeit briefly at this point, a critical review of
the main literature that covers the topic. The researcher must also
provide the aim of the research by clearly and concisely stating the
problem, as well as the research questions to be dealt with. This
section must also indicate what the research study will not be covering.
3. The Bachground:
The background to the topic of your intended research must be clear and
precise. It must not only include an in-depth explanation of the key points
of your subject but also all the developments in the field as well as
their timelines. The researcher must also explain the compelling
interest in the research issue as well as the personal interest (if any) in
the topic. This section must also indicate the specific area within which
the topic falls in your particular field of study or subject. Aslo, how will
the proposed study contribute to a particular field? In other words, the
impact and the significance in a subject area must be clearly
outlined. The target audience must also be clearly described.
6. Research Methodology/methods:
This section outlines the approach which the researcher will follow in
order to address the research problem and to answer all the research
questions from the researcher. The research design must be clearly
defined, e.g., is the research Descriptive, Correlational, Causal-
Comparative/Quasi-Experimental, Experimental, Diagnostic or
Explanatory.
State clearly
7. Literature Review:
The researcher must indicate the limitations of the study which are what
the researcher cannot do or factors that are beyond the researcher's
control, as well as delimitations that the researcher chooses not to
address for the purposes of the study. Delimitations are boundaries that
the researcher has set for the study. The reasons both for limitations
and delimitations must be discussed in this section.
The researcher must provide justification for the need to conduct the
study. What is the gap that the study will fill, and what is its contribution
to the existing body of knowledge? The originality and importance of
the research which will be level appropriate, must be clearly described,
for instance, the required level of originality for a fourth year research
project is different to that of a doctoral candidate.
The impact of the study for the subject field must be indicated. In other
words, how will the research improve the field, who will it impact, how
will it make changes in your industy or field etc.? Lastly, the proposed
resaerch must be relatable, interesting and engaging.
Your schedule for the research must be stated clearly including the
projected timelines for the various stages of your study
11. Bibligraphy:
All the sources that you have used for your proposal must be listed in
alphabetical order using a referencing style that your lecturer has
prescribed for your subject field.
Question # 05
Observation:
Direct observation
Case studies
Researcher as participant
Interviews
Qualitative Interview:
A qualitative interview is a more personal form of research compared
to questionnaires. The interviewer can probe or ask follow-up research
questions of the interview participant. In some cases, subjects may
start to interview the interviewer. This fosters deep discussion of the
interview topic.
