Reflection makes better learning. Please answer all these questions carefully.
Different types of sampling and variables.
Like: very helpful knowledge
Dislike: some seems a little bit too vague to characterize.
Memorize all the necessary information.
Try to apply it to answer some of the questions.
Design a specific research that meets up the purposes as well as proves to be effective in gaining insights in students' learning habits.
I've learnt many new concepts today. Some of them are dependent variable, independent variable and snowball sampling.
Like: new knowledge about conducting surveys
Dislike: some piece of information may be confusing
remember and clarify all the new terms and knowledge and put them into practice
I can apply it to conduct surveys students' learning needs or I know how to do research if I want to have higher education.
Types of sampling
Types of variables
Mean, mode, median, variance, standard diviation
I think there are too many reading materials in topic 4, yet they are not as concise and easy to grasp as the Lecture Notes.
I was rather baffled by the concepts of variance and standard diviation for I wanted to understand their core. Later, I find it unnecessary to do so as the math formula is what requires my attention.
I think the types of sampling are the most useful information in today's lesson. Later on, when I do a research thesis, I can embark on the thesis with prior knowledge about how to gather and analyze data.
Kinds of sampling and variables
I like new helpful terms and practical knowledge of the session. However, some are quite hard for me to internalize.
Apply what i have learned to my practice
Teachers should do a research that can help achieve the students' learning habit, so they can have the most appropriate method for each class
several concepts useful for future statistic course like: mean, mode, median, kinds of sampling, DV and IV, and so on
dislike: a huge numbers of concept to remember
understanding its deeper meaning and applying it into daily life (with a quiz to test my grapping)
dependent variable, Indepedent variable
random sampling, systematic sampling, cluster sampling, snowball sampling, quota sampling
true experimental designs, quasi-experimental designs
I like the hands-on activity with depensent and independent vaiables.
the instruction about the scales is a bit hard to understand.
The scales are a little bit confusing for me.
the difference between moderate and intervening variables
I know what kind of sampling to choose when doing resaerch.
samples
Sampling, Variables, Measurement Scales, Mean, Mode, Median
I really like to calculate the Mean, Mode, Median because it's realistic.
I am overwhelmed by the tremendous knowledge of sampling. It's hard to understand.
I have some trouble with the Quiz of Mean, Mode, and Median. But I know how to calculate it.
I know how to conduct a sampling procedure. With this advantage, I can do a research about my quality of teaching.
- Sampling strategies: probability and non-probability sampling and their own techniques.
- Probability sampling: simle random, systematic, stratified and cluster sampling.
- Non-probability sampling: (3 main) convenience, purposive and snowball sampling
- Mean, mode, median
- Variables
(+) interesting and useful theories
(-) too much information to take in
apply theories to do the calculating
memorize all the lesson
apply to conducting researches in higher education or work
