Write a definition of methods, methodologies and skills.
Methods – are
special ways to observe and collect data on a certain topic of interest. Methods
are used to reach the goal of research. Methods are the “how” of research.
According to Griffin
“ Methods are concerned with how you conduct a given piece of research”.
(p.5)
Methodologies – are
how a person approaches to a particular topic, it is a perspective that person
has, or “ concerned with the perspectives you bring to bear
on your work such as a feminist or a
postcolonialist one” (p.6)
Skills – are
knowledgeable approach or a tool to a particular research. It is “techniques
for handling material” (p.5)
In her introductory chapter Gabriele Griffin gave clear
explanations of what method, methodology
and skills are in research. In the future I will need them and use them in
completing my research project assignments.
