Difference between the two examples


Difference between first and second example
First example
  • In this, the researcher is using a survey method to carry out the study.
  • Here researcher is selecting the sample on a random basis i.e. out of 1000 primary school teachers in mumbai she is selecting 300 teachers randomly.
  • To find out the oipinion of primary school teachers researcher might be using questionnair as a tool.
  • For this survey method she requires only one group.

Second example

  • In this researcher is using experimental method to carry out the study.
  • Here researcher is selecting the sample randomly using a different method i.e. She lists everyone’s names on chits, and draws one chit out of the lot and writes that name under a column named linear CAI and non-linear CAI alternately and puts that chit aside.
  • Hence, two groups of sample are selected for the study.
  • Different treatment i.e linear CAI package to one group and non-linear CAI package to another group is given to check the effectiveness of the packages.
