| Aim | The main purpose of the course is to teach quantitative and qualitative research methods which are necessary to handle a scientific research. The basics of a scientific research include the aim and design of the research with frequently used statistical methods and techniques along with its data management and analyses, its formal structure and presentation. The student is to have general information about how a scientific work is established and critical points to care. |
| Course Content | This course contains; Scientific Method,Stages of Scientific Research (Process),Conceptual framework of the research theory, model, hypothesis, variable and operationalization,Research design: classification of research designs and methods,Quantitative and qualitative research methods,Research, universe, sample and sampling,Operational identification and measurement,Data collection techniques,Quantitative data analysis,Qualitative data analysis,Preparation of the research report,Ethics in scientific research,Examination of quantitative research examples,Nitel araştırma örnekleri inceleme. |
