    This document discusses research methodology and research design. It begins by defining research methodology as the specific procedures used to identify, select, process, and analyze information about a research topic. It then explains that a research design guides the research similar to a blueprint for a house. The research design should answer the 5Ws: what, why, who, where, and when. It provides examples of how to answer each of these questions. Finally, it outlines four approaches to research design: ethnography, case study, phenomenology, and historical approach; and provides a brief definition and example of each approach.

    CHAPTER 3:

    METHODOLOGY
    WHAT IS RESEARCH METHODOLOGY?

    The specific procedures or


    techniques used to identify, select,
    process, and analyze information
    about the topic.
    LESSON 1
    WHAT IS A RESEARCH DESIGN?

    Similar to building a house, a research design


    is your guide for you to finish your research.
    This may include answering the 5W’s:
    WHAT? WHY? WHO? WHERE? WHEN?

    Dawson (2002) explains the importance of


    these questions on how you are going to get the
    answers for your research questions.
    WHAT?
    What is your research all about? What do you want
    to find out? What problems do you want to solve? It
    is important to have answers to these questions in
    the very beginning of your research. Answers to
    these questions will give you guide on how you are
    going to approach your research topic.
    WHY?
    Why do you want to do your research? This question
    should be answered at the significance of the study.
    It may be that you want to do your research because
    it is a requirement. However, there are other reasons
    as to why you chose that specific topic. Whatever
    the reason may be, it is important to have a clear
    vision on why you want to continue your research.
    WHO?

    Who will take part in your research? Who will


    participate in your study? You should have a
    clear indication on the specific type of people
    that will take part in your study (age, gender,
    economic status, etc.).
    WHERE?
    Where will you gather all information needed for
    your research? This part of your research should take
    into consideration your capabilities as a researcher.
    If you think that your data and participants in
    research will be too far away, then it’s much better to
    change your topic. You will learn more about this in
    the following discussions.
    WHEN?
    Finally, when are you going to start gathering
    information for your research? When will you do
    interviews? When will you interpret and analyze
    your data? This should be answered immediately
    knowing that you only have a short time in
    completing your work.
    HOW DO WE RELATE THE 5W’S TO
    RESEARCH DESIGN?
    Knowing how to answer those questions in your own
    topic saves you a lot of time in thinking about your
    research as a whole. You need to have a clear indication
    what your research is all about, why you want to do it,
    who will be your respondents, where are you going to
    get the information and when will you get it.
    There are 4 approaches in research design:
    ● Ethnography
    ● Case Study
    ● Phenomenology
    ● Historical Approach
    ETHNOGRAPHY

    • From the word ethno=people and graphy= writing.


    • Ethnography translates to writing about people. This type of
    approach to qualitative research aims to study a particular group
    of people in their natural settings.
    • This particular study wants to describe and interpret the behavior
    of different kinds of people, culture or population. This can
    pertain to a specific type of culture, community, school, or
    workplace.
    CASE STUDY
    If you want to learn deeper and more specific details of a
    certain situation, group of people or an individual, you may
    want to use case studies. The difference of case study with
    other approaches to qualitative research is that it gives a more
    in-depth analysis to a topic with a use of more data gathering
    procedures at the same time. The problem with case studies is
    that it’s more difficult to use especially if it is your first time
    making a research paper.
    PHENOMENOLOGY
    This type of approach to qualitative research wants to study the
    phenomenon or experiences of people. The purpose of this
    approach is to give an idea on how individuals or a group of people
    react or experience a certain phenomenon.
    A phenomenon can be a rare occurrence or an experience of an
    individual that is not common. An example of this can be applied
    when we want to study about the experiences of teenagers to
    bullying or physical abuse.
    HISTORICAL APPROACH
    To give you a proper explanation of this type of approach, think of
    the 1986 EDSA Revolution; think about World War II or the past
    presidential elections. Historical approach is a systematic collection and
    evaluation of information which have occurred in the past. This can be
    in a form of documents, stories, artifacts, videos, etc. What you want to
    do is to examine the validity of these documents, or if you want to add
    more information about a past event that hasn’t yet emerged. You might
    want to ask questions like “What is the purpose of the document?” “Are
    there other forms of documents or information that I can add?”
