After the lecture on instrumentation last week, we proceeded to analysis of data. There are two types of quantitative data; which are descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. Listening to all these terms made me find them difficult. But after Dr. Izaham explained with examples on the slides, it became clearer to differentiate between the two.
If we had more time, it would be best if Dr. Izaham can teach us how to actually analyze the data using SPSS. It will be more meaningful to have some data analyzed in the class. Based on this lecture, it has helped to decide and determine which type of data that I am going to collect and analyze in my research. For the case study, I will be analyzing using descriptive statistics where means and percentages will be calculated. Standard deviation will also be included in my research.
