- Course objectives
- The aim of the course is to deepen and expand the knowledge of the subject Methodology 1, especially in relation to the methodology and techniques that students will use in elaborating their dissertation research. Attention will also be paid to the presentation of research data and findings in the dissertation text itself. In the field of qualitative research, students will learn about the specifics that accompany entry into the environment to be researched, data collection and processing. In quantitative data analysis, students will be able to work with statistical sets, statistical unit, measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and measures of variance (range, variance, standard deviation). Students should be able to distinguish and use parametric and non-parametric statistical tests and perform basic inferential statistics operations. They will learn to work with basic functions in a statistical software (STATISTICA, SPSS). Students will also gain experience in presenting research findings at a public forum (professional conference).
