1. at first, even after the seminar, i still have a (lot of) confusion over all these philosophy terms such as priori and a posteriori ..is it the same as analytic judgement and synthetic judgement. However, reading your post make a little more sense to me with that one sentence 'Post-Kantian knowledge theory is based on presupposition, where a posteriori knowledge is structured by a priori' However, on the 12 categories Kant proposed still give me alot of confusions. From what i understand is that, it just categories that kant try to make the priori-base knowledge into concept ? In our seminar we also raised similar question on how his 12 catagories are formed and is it limited only these 12 ? but yes i have to agree with you that kant is rather just trying to focus on how knowledge was structured. http://u1vfukfo.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-1-post-posting-theory-of.html
2. i was having a hard time writing my first blog too. i didn't write alot either because i didn't truly understand the text. but seem like you understand kant's text better than i did. kant wasn't totally against the though of having a priori about things but rather a priori can be a starting point to formulate a hypothesis and perform experiments like what u said. i did the same mistake on thinking that socrates was totally again empiricism but he was not. it's all good since we did the post a second blog with a better understanding in both text. nice job. :) http://suchapriori.blogspot.se/2015/09/pre-theme-1.html?showComment=1442520474013
3. i also have a hard time tell apart these terms "synthetic a priori judgement" , "analytic judgement", even "posteriori" and so on
but i have to agree that the point of kant is too expand our knowledge and to questions/investigate the world about everything whether starting with a priori or not. http://theorymethodmediatech.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme1theory-of-knowledge-and-theory-of.html?showComment=1442521776050
4. thanks for the clear example about the pen. i had been really confused with those example in the class but you got me really clear here. i still wonder how Kant come up with the solution about the 'space and time' thing though. it just so smart that things in this world without our perception can be explain with these catagories he came up with it's amazing.
nice job :)

5. I personally think that there is objective world outside ourselves. If everyone produce knowledge starting from priori or sense of perception I think our world would have a hard time discover new things; like ‘gravity’ ‘force’ . Those term before it becomes term or knowledge I also wonder how it is started maybe viewing the world from objective view.. raw sense of date ? Because it is something so far away from us. Like how kant told that we can questions everything about the world even the world itself.
Great reflection blog by the way ☺

6. I can clearly see the picture when you were explaining that “without conception we can only see bodies” . very detailed in explaining kant’s word “perception without conception is blind, conception without perception is empty” and interesting discussion about the baby. http://cscmediatechnologyassignment.blogspot.se/2015/09/reflection-of-theme-1.html#comment-form
7. good example you brought up here about the table that with concept you know that it is a ‘table’ that it is ‘white’. with perception you have, you know that it is a table but without perception it might be just something else that has no meaning to you. And perception with conception you know that it is a white table. Thanks for the explanations. Nice reflection ☺

8. You have numbers of interesting topics during your seminar. I wonder if human can gain knowledge by something they don’t have experience before, something that we have zero perception about it. But I do think that people can obtain true objectivity. Interesting. Nice reflection blog ☺

9. interesting reflections. i didn't realized that we had touched on theme two a little bit on the 'nominalism'. i'm not sure if i got your last part right where you mention the winning concept and the better way. but i do think that we can have new knowledge base on old knowledge. the new knowledge might provide a better proof of concept ? is that what you're saying ? http://u1x5o721.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-1-reflection.html?showComment=1442528844910
10. interesting discussion you had. it really had me thinking that ...is 'knowledge' maybe the piece of information that has a sufficient number of proof or concept that most people agreeing with it. http://thetheoryandmethodofeverything.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-1-reflections.html?showComment=1442529729601

theme 2: comments on other blogs
1. i had to agree with you that this week theme had me into the understanding more than kant's one. the lecturer really make it better by just bringing up author's background in time and place differences like what u said. it really played a big part in their view. however i personally thinks that sadly media of capitalist is going for money that's why it is not becoming like how Benjamin hope it would be. nice reflections blog :) http://suchapriori.blogspot.se/2015/09/post-theme-2.html?showComment=1443132885405
2. hi,
your explanation on natural and historical perception is very interesting linking them to kant's concepts of time and space. it had me think that maybe if human perceive more naturally than historically we could produce more new knowledge/inventions. anyways nice reflection blog. i really enjoy reading. :) http://pargman420.blogspot.se/2015/09/post-reflection-2.html?showComment=1443135019295
3. Hi,
i would say that mass media is substructure and art is superstructure too ? because substructure contribute to superstructure changes right ? however interesting example on 'soul' of art. even though reproduction reduces aura or what u called 'soul' i do think it substitute with other value that have people value them until now. if soul of art is conversation between object and individual then reproduction would be conversation between object and mass ? nice example :) http://happyblogger7.blogspot.se/2015/09/reflections-of-theme-2.html?showComment=1443135979453
4. interesting discussion on myth. i personally cannot imagine the day that this world has no myth. but is't because of myth that we human want to find things out and produce new knowledge. but yes we do live without solving all the myth and sometimes we put it into 'faith' instead eg. god.for 'aura' of art work is the uniqueness or specialness of art that reproduction do not have. the "here and now" value of the object. even though reproduction reduces aura but it produces 'exhibition value' which is bringing art to mass that everyone can appreciate it. nice work :) http://cscmediatechnologyassignment.blogspot.se/2015/09/reflection-of-theme-2.html?showComment=1443137402452
5. that's what i thought too. The term 'realism' suppose to be the most real but 'nope'. the most real thing is that thing we don't put it into concept? i had misunderstood a lot of things in the pre reflection blog too. i didn't think that A&H had that negative feeling toward mass media. it worse than i thought. he must had seen alot of consumerism culture in the US. but the professor made it really clear for me in the lecture + seminar. nice reflection blog. :) http://thetheoryandmethodofeverything.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-2-reflections.html?showComment=1443137904562
6. hi,
it is interesting that Benjamin sees that aura will be totally destroy by the reproduction but yes he see it as a good thing. he's willing to give that up if it will bring art down to mass.
i love how clear and concise your reflection blog is.nice job :) http://u1x5o721.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-2-reflection.html?showComment=1443138667201
7. hi,
you had clarify me some confusion between Nominalism and platonic realism. and interesting discussion on today's mass media society. we often say media role is to mirror the society to report reality and probably did not aware of this nominalist at all. but really there are many more aspects media portray the society and with social media and all there're more potential of changes to come. nice reflections. i enjoy reading :) http://mediatechmishmash.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-2-afterthoughts.html?showComment=1443141279817
8. i misunderstand Benjamin too since he was marxist which is opposite to capitalist. i was like i wasn't sure but he sounds positive to this reproduction mass media. then he mentioned about the decay of aura. but yea after all it is media for 'mass' so Benjamin would be positive about it. and comparing this week to previous week it kinda get me the big picture that after all they are after changes, new knowledge, or freedom. keep it up ! :) http://dm2572elvira.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-2-critical-media-studies-post.html?showComment=1443142110986
9. nice explanation on nominalism linking it to kant's categories from previous week. after two weeks i kinda get the link between them as i read your post :) i was having some confusion understanding the realism concept. your blogs help me a bit. but doesn't it sounds like realism and kants was having the same thing which is like what you mention that 'object is part of its concept. anyways great post , keep it up :) http://theoatmeth.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-2-post-seminar.html?showComment=1443143892099
10. thanks for your sharing. you have made a very clear point and good example in both text. it helps my understandings alot. i also come to think of today's media i think Benjamin is a genius. the point of media theseday even the develop of social media and all aim to bring light to mass, it is just like what benjamin hope for. but what A&H found is just one big obstacle that we have to go through and still have to go through these days still. nice wrap up on the last sentence it really make things clear.nice work. i enjoy reading :) http://mediafluttery.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-2-reflectioncritical-media-studies.html?showComment=1443143105478

2. Hi,
thank for sharing your thought.i also find that usually people, or even i, always say it without realizing 'i have theory of this and that' but its actually hasn't been prove or anything. sometimes it's just my findings when something is interesting and i assume that it's my theory of this or that. i wonder if this could consider theory in my own context or it is just hypothesis (assuming) like what u said. uhmm intersting. http://jonathansbs.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-3-post.html?showComment=1443671428829
3. I agree with you that theory doesn’t have to be true but at least theory can be proven to be true but not will always forever be. I really enjoy reading the example you bring up on Newton’s laws of motion. It gives me a better understanding. Even more interesting when you mentioned that we still refer to them even we know that it’s not entirely true but it actually give us base to explore to more complex things. Really enjoy reading your blog. Thanks for sharing ☺ http://alexisdm2572.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-3-post-seminar.html?showComment=1443670124495
4. hi, thanks for sharing your thoughts.very nice subject line by the way. lol i have to admit that when i read your last line that 'scientific theory apparently does not have to relate to the natural world.' i totally doubt it. and then you mentioned about math.so yeah maybe it is true. precise and nice reflecting blog. keep it up :) http://dont-panic-forty-two.blogspot.se/2015/09/in-retrospect-theme-3.html?showComment=1443669212772
5. hi, thanks for sharing. you had an interesting discussion about the concept of truth. that "truth" does not equal to "true." then theory is more like a 'commonly accepted true new findings ? i guess. it would be difficult to create theory that create paradigm shifts but yes all we have to do is create new true findings base on previous ones. agree with that. nice reflecting blogs. i enjoy reading. and beautiful header too :) http://u1vfukfo.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-3-post-posting-research-and-theory.html?showComment=1443668485310
6. interesting question on theory and hypothesis you raised. from my understanding hypothesis is a tool to produce new theory. but hypothesis can also base on existing theory. so it can either be
theory -> hypothesis -> newfindings ( new theory)
or hypothesis -> theory ?anyways nice reflecting blog. keep it up :) http://mashasthoughts123.blogspot.se/2015/09/seminar-3-reflection.html?showComment=1443667794996
7. hi, i also find this week was easier to understand almost boring if they dont bring philosophy in. your question in seminar seems interesting on 'what is theory of knowledge.' i personally understand that theory of knowledge is more to philosophy side and with this is used instruct scientific theory. in our seminar was more focus on hypothesis and theory and didn't mention about this at all. it was interesting readin yours. thanks for sharing. http://dm2572fan.blogspot.se/2015/09/post-theme-3.html?showComment=1443667339226
8. interesting reflections and you linking it back to Normalism as well ! i think this theme would be so plain without linking it back to philosophy. we had one person in our seminar raised a question about why did the lecture mention 'what is man' and the answer was because it has no absolute definition to it, like theory. the definition we give is depends on our context. but you point in explaining them are really interesting too. keep it up :) http://cscmediatechnologyassignment.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-3-reflection.html?showComment=1443666266684
9. thanks for sharing. nice example on weak theory :) i also had read similar type of paper where they just gather other people theory and put them up against each other. however i think it is okay as well. as long as they actually find some new findings in that paper. because theory doesn't have to always be like a totally new one but can contribute to the existing ones. http://butlikewhyisit.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-3-reflection.html?showComment=1443665589631
10. Thanks for sharing. you had a clear explanation on telling apart scientific theory and philosophical theory which help me understand a little bit more about their differences. Theory and truth also catches my attention too. Ilias even mention that there is no absolute truth in theory. Like you mention it’s a‘state of knowledge in a given field at a given time’ (until it will be proven other wise). it becomes more interesting when linking this back to philosophy. ☺ http://ninopmedia.blogspot.se/2015/09/theme-3-reflections-0-false-18-pt-18-pt.html?showComment=1443664887753

1. thanks for sharing.
i can see that from engineer aspect quantitative might be more useful and practice :) you broaden my understanding between the two type of use that "quantitative research is used more like a proving or extension to the existed theory, while qualitative research is a process for organizing a theory which emphasize social phenomenas." i also had read your pre blog. the topic is really interesting. and they decided to use questionnaire to survey about drug risk taking and even mental health ? which is really weird. however i guess i might be easier to evaluate the result. http://theorymethodmediatech.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme4-quantitative-research-after.html?showComment=1444091177044
2. i agreed that quantitative is more numeric while qualitative is more of humanic study.
i had read your preblog on the topic paper 'When Online Dating Partners Meet Offline'
really interesting topic. it is more of a sociological behaviour but the research decided to use quantitative research to present empirical observations as mathematical model. http://mashasthoughts123.blogspot.se/2015/10/seminar-4-refection.html?showComment=1444091999786
3. thanks for sharing. for our seminar we didn't talk about 'wicked problem' at all. (or maybe he did but i did't catch it). it's nice reading your reflection and come to know about it. i had read the other blog which mentioned that more often quantitative build up on existing theory, and yours were saying qualitative make it easier to find new and innovative. it really give me a better big picture of the two.

4. interesting paper you have read. i feel like that best part of this theme is to share about paper you had read and the process of quantitative research they had used. like yours was counting repeating words on website to decide if it's rank better because of that. however from what i know (this is totally off topic but.. anyways) algorithm of ranking website on search engine (SEO) must have more indicators to order the ranking beside the repeating words. like time people spending on website and bouncing rate and so on. however i think all of them can be all study with quantitative research or numeric data alone. uhm interesting topic indeed. http://vadfinnsegentligen.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-4-reflection.html?showComment=1444094270147
5. thank for sharing. i had to agreed with you that actually the two research type can be use together and their advantages kinda complete each other .. might result in a better paper or a 'stronger' conclusion. however, i also do think that quantitative alone answer the question 'what is it' and also 'why is it' after we analyse the result. anyways, nice reflecting blog. i enjoy reading. http://blog4course99.blogspot.se/2015/10/reflection-on-theme-4.html?showComment=1444095902848
6. you have a detailed explaination !. .. and alot of things that i didn't have a discussion in my seminar like the questionnaire process, how the researcher shouldn't create questionnaire towards answering their hypothesis. because most of the time i think people mistaken that. i also agree that in order to make the quantitative less bias or better for generalisation number of participants and who are the participants play a big part. http://ninopmedia.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-4-reflection-0-false-18-pt-18-pt.html?showComment=1444349405242
7. you have a point there. i also think that combining quantitative and qualitative would be best since you have more back up for your conclusions. however i think it also depends on what type of topic you do. and also big thing.. it depends on budget. say if you want to know how popular twitter is among students. only survey might be enough. and you wouldn't want it to consume too much time plus why spending more budget if you already have enough data to conclude. anyways it is an interesting debate that can go on for a while in group discussion. nice work. i enjoy reading keep it up :) http://butlikewhyisit.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-4-reflection.html?showComment=1444350009772
8. hi,seem like you guys have creative topic to discuss in seminar group :)i also think that only new things i got from this theme is to get to read/hear media tech research using various method in many different ways. and i have to agree that most of media tech paper is using quantitative method since it is much easier and better to collect and analyse a more visible result (and it's really hard to find one for qualitative in the next theme) http://dm2572elvira.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-4-quantitative-research-post.html?showComment=1444350615461
9. hi,
thank for sharing. you have a really easy way of explaining. i like
how u mentioned 'let the question of the study determine the research method' if it's 'what do they like' we should go with quantitative but if it's 'why' we should go with qualitative. because i also did come across some interesting research topic but done reading after they decide to do a simple survey and just present result. it really has lost interest if you pick a wrong way. http://dm2572lisa.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-4-reflection-post.html?showComment=1444351404093
10. hi,when i read the research paper i found i also face something like you. mine was the search about CAPTCHA they wanted to investigate and produce a user-friendly CAPTCHA. however, the participants they choose is only those among undergraduate student in the same program, exactly like your case. however they also state in the discussion part that it can be carry on a future research with more various group. so i come to think about it .. maybe they just want to find if there is something first.. in the first stage. just like how Ilias do with the illusion and drumming thing. anyways nice job. keep it up :) http://dm2572fan.blogspot.se/2015/10/post-theme-4.html?showComment=1444354867422

theme 5: comment
1. you had made a good point on how idea is judged in academic and business field. it is indeed similar as both of them has to do with 'selling' either products or ideas. and i personally think design research is actually very practical than other kinds as it turns those idea into actual work. as for the 90% defining problem i actually interpret it as looking back to the problem again in order to realise the goal and we can therefore see more solving solutions.like what he mentioned about the camera which trying to capture users' head. http://cliodile.blogspot.se/2015/10/after-theme-5-design-research.html?showComment=1444956476122
2. from what i understand from "design research is to shape prototype, to answer the questions" . prototype is a tool use to test the research intention. say if you want a camera to capture users' head. you create a prototype to test your idea of how to do it. and you shape the prototype along the process in order to have a solutions. like what you have found in the end that prototype is base for further investigation and probably new finding. http://mashasthoughts123.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-5-reflection.html?showComment=1444957587288
3. i find the 5 steps of getting idea interesting too. it's very straightforward that even in the academic field you also need an idea that worth selling. which imply lots of thing. it has to be ideas that is demanded by other people to know or to use too. and those idea is turning into product by doing design research and use prototype as tool to shape the idea. it's actually very practical this theme. however i had to agree with you that the lecture this week is alil hard to grap. i guess design research is more complicated in describing/defining than doing. http://blog4course99.blogspot.se/2015/10/reflection-on-theme5.html?showComment=1444958673150
4. hi,
i have to agree with you that presenting idea from the design research probably challenging especially for engineer who use technical terms all the time. and audience usually be those from business area. all the good work would not be fully appreciate if the pitch isn't adjusting to the audience.as for the second lecture, from what i understood from the class. researcher method is designing ways to look what's under empirical data by the help of prototype searing for answers or new findings. i wasn't sure either because the second lecture is alil hard to grap. http://alexisdm2572.blogspot.se/2015/10/for-this-weeks-theme-i-have.html?showComment=1444959916025
5. from my opinion from what the professor said that the good way to select an idea is to see how much money can you make if you provide a solution. it can also imply if the topic or idea you choose to do is interesting enough/ or would people buy it / would people want to know about it / it can also be in that sense. but yea in a money sense could probably be because most researches need the financial support from outsiders. nice summary on the second lecture. i personally find it hard to grap but yours kinda make it clearer for me. http://ninopmedia.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-5-reflections-0-false-18-pt-18-pt.html?showComment=1444960681036
6. hi,nice example on how the define the problem and get a solution. after i watch Johnny English i also felt the same way. sometimes we just overlook the simplest way of solving things. i was having the same problem with the second lecture. it is hard to grap for me. at one point i understand what the prototype is for. and what design is. but the more information i got, the more confusion i get. i didn't catch the thing about interview and empirical data but luckily i came across your reflection blog. http://mediafluttery.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-5-reflection.html?showComment=1445125341364
7. hi, your additional reading seem interesting "reframing the questions provokes new ideas"i'm totally agree with it. it gave me a new light on how professor Haibo mentioned how he solve the camera capture the head of users thingy. it doesn't even need technical engineering knowledge to solve that. just because they're going back to the defining question. http://securepathofscience.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-5-design-research-reflection.html?showComment=1445124833440
8. i really like reading Haibo Li paper too. it's like 'finally something that actually is practical ! from all those theory we learnt ! and it seems fun the explore his idea with prototype and such. i agree with you that prototype is important for designing so that you know where the flaw is and you can adjust it along the testing process too. in the other lecture also mention that prototype is like we're testing what is happening when it is in reality and we shape it. anyways nice reflections :) http://dm2572elvira.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-5-design-research-post-seminar.html?showComment=1445127444506
9. hi,i was giving up on design research when he mentioned that math is very important to solve problem. however seeing from his example solving problem about the camera that suppose to capture users' head. in the end they go with the change of camera placement instead of solving it with more complicated technical engineer thing. so maybe by defining problem you go use math or maybe other choice that doesn't require math as well. however, i think for the technology research field i guess you rarely able to avoid using math to foresee problem or solve problem. http://pargman420.blogspot.se/2015/10/post-seminar-reflection-5.html?showComment=1445128427395
10. hi, you have a good point on how the two lecturer is alil bit different on their style of working on research. even both of them doing design research, Haibo emphasis on how you filter your idea, how your idea need to make money or important for other people. while Anders were saying that design research of his he did what he want to know, what he wants to focus.

Theme6:
1. "you had a point right there at the beginning that "The number of the participants does not define the type of the method. The type of the data that we gather defines the method." i was too obsess about numbers of participants to differentiate case study apart from other quali/quantitative research.but actually your point is to look at whether the information is enough to be a qualitative/quantitative or a case study ! nice reflecting thank you !. "
http://literaturestuffm.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-6-reflections-after-lecture-and.html?showComment=1445816928307
2. ",you raised an interesting point on whether case study is suitable for testing theory or not. but as you mention that we rather use case study for the area of study that has limited information or new thing so we can find if there is anything to study about it. i think maybe case study consume alot of time and thats why it doesnt commonly use to test theory and rather use quantitative or qualitative research which is easier to do it ? anyways great reflects. i enjoy reading :) "

3. "i was also confused with the same couple of question like ‘how experiment different from case study’ and ‘is case study is the method?’
but seem like you have clarified them all. and even came up with a clear understandable definition of it. overall it just starts with what information you have in hands. is it good enough ? and then you choose which strategy you are going for. case study ? or other quantitative/qualitative research ."

4. "hi,well you really give me another angle to define "case study" apart from prototype though. since Ilias said that case study is to study of some thing that has limited information or something we don't really understand about it. i think prototype is the opposite. when you start your research like professor HaiBo said. you have idea that is been filter, you know what the problem is, you define problem and then make the prototype to test it. so it is pretty clear for me how these two distinguish. it's interesting to try to understand it like what you curious from the beginning too. nice reflects :)"

" hi,i see that you have a clear understanding of the case study and qualitative study. i also was confused about them at first. i personally think both of them should be in the different level. case study is a research strategy level but qualitative is a method level. you might choose to study about one topic with 'case study' and using the 'qualitative method' anyways nice and precise reflections :) "

6. "it took me so much time to find a paper with qualitative method because every paper seem to be using quantitative to me. because i didn’t understand that questionnaire can be a mixture if they have an open question. i originally thought all questionnaire consider quantitative.in the paper i read about case study. they also have the same problem like you said. they find it hard to write things down to be a report paper. since case study is very detailed and sometimes it is hard to convert information they get into letters."

7. "your sentence on "Case study can be a way to start a big study,"
say alot of how it different from our previous theme. as previous theme we always mention what hypothesis is. and how it can be conduct from previous theory. but case study we start without any theory. and pave the way for new theory. like you said 'once you have more knowledge about that specific event. Then you can move on and see how that compare in the bigger picture.' nice reflects :) "http://dm2572lisa.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-6-reflection-post.html?showComment=1445829288050
8. hi, i also have the same thing on my blog. that i agree with you that quantitative and qualitative study kinda aim to generalized their result. therefore their sample cannot be too small. while for case study even one person is enough for your sample size because they don't need to generalize or prove theory. but they try to find something new. and if that one person can be test to find that new thing then is it enough.

9. "so you were saying that doing case study is like calling for attention of researches that this new area should investigate more ! very interesting angle . i also think that case study doesn't always need to find new theory but at least case study should provide new findings that will bring some light to other people and pave way for other studies to continue. like the paper i found all they did was observing 3-4 years old kid and technology interaction and they found that kids these days ! their toy were changing and that's it. however they mentioned that there were so little study about this 3-4 years old kid and tech and they think it is important for the study to go on.

10. hi,i agree that case study can be more subjective compare to quantitative and qualitative study as its aim are different. as you mentioned that case study tend to particular situation therefore it was looking for something new that exist in that particular situation first. and maybe boarder study can be explore later. case study didn't mean to generalize the result in the first place. instead looking for ways to find new theory like you said. case study is pretty interesting.

a 1000 word commentary in which reflect about different ways of combining different methods in order to answer complex research questions
This course takes me all the way back to the philosophy in
defining how knowledge is produced. This reflects how we are going to do
research in our field of study and let us see in a wider perspective in questioning things , and a wider perspective in answering things around
us.
In order to do a research or solve problem in our study,
now we will be able to ask ourself what
data we have in hand, what is a priori data we have, and how or what method should be use then later we
can come up how we can answer it and
find a new finding or maybe find a new theory. We will be able to look at the
problem or define it. By looking at it in different angle we will be able find creative way/method in solving
which could be more than one way.
In understanding different method and approach of research,
such as qualitative method, quantitative method, design research using prototype,
or a research with study case, I see that one
research can use the method that suit their problems and bring out the best
data they can. However a lot of research would include numbers of different method so they can get information from
different angle and make use of those data to back up their findings.
I’ve read numbers of research paper that combine different
method and it makes the paper interesting to read. The question of that
particular research maybe wide, and difficult to prove so their research paper
has a stronger argument and a more valid result if they include different
method in answering question. To answer the complex research questions,
some research paper may include ‘hypothesis’ and in order to test their
hypothesis sometimes one approach may not give enough answer to the research
question. The complex research question could means that the research topic is
involved in many factors or the topic is still new to the field and new to
study more.
Especially for the ‘case
study’ which is the research strategy we tend to use when the topic of
field of research is still lacking in
information, Something that is new to the society and never been
investigate or try to test/produce before. When this kind of research question
happen using only one method of research
may not be sufficient to back up the paper. They might not be able to find much
with one method. Therefore using two or more method provides a better theory or stronger arguments
to the conclusion.
I’ve read the research paper about the use of technology
by 3-4 years old children. The researcher did 3 different methods in one paper.
1) They interview/questionnaire with the care taker 2) using case study or the
family with 3.4 years old kids in the area and observe the house 3) parent
reports on the child activity buy sending pictures to the researchers. Because
of the study of 3-4 years old kid rarely have been done. They therefore need to
do a lot of things in order to gain as much information from all around
different aspects.
I learn that sometimes one questionnaire can also be using both quantitative and qualitative
method. It depends on what kind of questions is asked on the paper. Tick
boxes and yes/no question would be converted into numeric data later, which
consider quantitative approach. They might also contain open questions, which
participants in the research can write anything down which would be a
qualitative approach. For example if the research is about the use of social
media use. One could conduct a questionnaire with and list of close question
such as ‘what type of social media do you own’ or ‘which UX UI of social media
website you like the most.’ And another set of open question such as ‘why do u
decide to use a particular social media instead of the other one’. And
sometimes before a researcher can come up with questions on one questionnaire,
the researcher have to do a pre-research
beforehand to include important questions on that particular questionnaire and
predict what kind of data they will get.
I also see that a drummer research that belongs to Ilias
would also be able to add a qualitative approach to the research such as
interview, if the aim of research is to see the different of people reaction to
their virtual self in both conscious and subconscious aspects. The interview
after people seeing themselves in a different skin color through the virtual
reality can add up more details on why did they act particular way, or how do
they feel about each appearance of skin changes. Ilias also mentioned this friend
who did a qualitative research about homeless people in London, which left a
lot of impression. The researcher could just do a normal interview or observe
or survey. But he choose to live with them fore a certain period of time by
spending days and night with them instead of just interviewing or asking them
question. This shows that in getting
information we can create our own way/ or combine ways that we see that it will
give us best information in answering our research question.
For the design research that include prototype to
demonstrate and test their theory, Professor Haibo mentioned that to
communicate idea of such work, you need to pitch the work to other people.
Therefore researcher needs to do a lot of background studying before conduction
one. Professor Haibo mentioned the importance of choosing idea for Design
research. Design research has to filter idea before doing one. In the process
of choosing what idea would draw public interest, will it has a monetary value.
These information could be gather from qualitative of qualitative before the
design is search is conducted too.
In conclusion, the point of research after all is to gain knowledge and that there are different ways we can use to look at things and gain knowledge from it. Not only from the angle we see the world but also the other angle from other perspectives as well. We need to take a wider look to questions, see what’s under it. Therefore like the research question in order to solve one problem there is always more that one solution to it
