This report will consist of the principles of quantitative research, which
this report will be analysing secondary data obtained from some
quantitative research looking into the attitudes of student teachers about
inclusive education. Within this report it will compare the two research
methods and give examples of the types of data involved with each one.
As well as this, the report will take a closer look at the data collected and
look at the findings and interpretation of the data. Afterwards, the report
will explore the strengths and limitations of the data and the ethical issues
of the data.
The main focus of the report is surrounding the secondary data that was
collected through quantitative research. This research deals with numbers
and an objective stance, focusing on numeric data and data that does not
change and is detailed. The principles of this research method is that the
researcher can use measurable variables, randomise the sampling of the
participants, present the data in different ways such as in tables, graphs
and figures. “Quantitative research is scientific investigation that includes
both experiments and other systematic methods that emphasize control
and quantified measures of performance” (Hoy, 2010). I have chosen to
use secondary data that was collected using quantitative research as it
gives the chance to explore the collected data in different ways such as
how many people agree with a statement but also be able to view where
some people disagree and be able to form theories and ideas around why
this might be. The method allows for the chance to collect information and
data through different sources that can be done in person and online
allowing for a large number of participants to take part in the research.
