RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Common sense and research both involve an attempt to understand various aspects of
the world. However, research arguably not only common sense, but also involves an explicit,
systematic approach to finding things out, often through a process of testing out
preconceptions. This process begins with deciding on a research question. It is then necessary
to conduct a literature review and to decide on a research design which addresses the
record, and analyze the perception of engineering students in talks about tradition and
modern way of building infrastructures. The researchers chosen this design because
informative means informing the readers about the specific study. They aim to share the
information to give knowledge, obviously for them to be informed. The possible information
that are included are the pros and cons of each variables and also which is the most
preferable to use by the engineers. This study will be conducted on EAC-C by the Civil
engineering students.
how people perceive their social realities and in consequence, how they act within the social
world. Qualitative research attempts to broaden and/or deepen our understanding of how
things came to be the way they are in our social world. According to Mcleod (2017), the
researchers have several methods for collecting empirical materials, ranging from the
interview to direct observation, to the analysis of artifacts, documents, and cultural records,
practices and standards be not only recorded, but also achieved, challenged and as well as
reinforced. As a research method, interviews have been written about extensively for several
decades. However, there is a curious juxtaposition between interviews as written about, and
interviews as performed in the course of research. The vast majority of writing about
interview research methods states that interviews should be conducted face-to-face or simply
The researchers will gather the perceptions of each civil engineering about the said
topic. It is required to use qualitative research to expand their knowledge and opinions
research since it is the most convenient and there has assurance if the participants are stating
facts or not. The research design which the researchers chosen is informative. Basically,
informative means informing the target people about certain topic. That is the main goal of
the researchers, to give knowledge and deepen their knowledge about modern vs traditional
In this study, the researcher employed the purposive sampling method for the
according to the needs of the study. This means the researcher selects participants because
they have indicated their willingness to participate in the study. Likewise, this strategy
enables the researcher to collect relevant and useful information for answering the research
question.
The researchers choose civil engineering students to be the participants because they
are more knowledgeable about which is more preferable to use between modern and
traditional way of building infrastructure. They have enough knowledge to answer the
research questions that was provided by the researchers. The participants of this research can
be a male or female. A total number of 3 participants drawn from the civil engineering
This study was conducted in Emilio Aguinaldo College – Cavite that provides quality
education for the youth. This institution has civil engineering students that will become the
participants of the study. The researchers chose this school because it is easy to conduct an
interview to the participant even in a hectic schedule. The researcher will give an informed
consent to each of the participants to have a proof that they volunteered in this study and
The depth of responses is more important than the number of responses. This study
does not need more participants to answer the research question. Even though there are only
3 participants they can answer the questions accurately, which is way better than having lots
of participants. Having a large number of participants will make the data analysis more
complicated for the researchers’ because it will make a lot of themes and patterns to analyze.
The participant should have depth responses so that the researchers can get the answer to the
research objectives. The researchers managed an interview to the participants who are related
and responsible in the issue of this study. This will produce knowledge and ideas that will
By having this technique, the researchers were able to find results and responses from
the 3 civil engineering students that may help to support the study. Having the answers and
results from the interview will guide the researchers to determine the outcome of the study.
3.3 Instrumentation
The perception of each engineering student about modern and old traditional way of
building infrastructure may help the researchers in conducting their study. Engineering
students are the one who were involved in this study because they are the one who have a
forte in it and they are the one who will benefit on it on which they more prefer in terms of
building an infrastructure.
The present and the future engineering students are the ones who will benefit and take
advantages in this study. It may help the engineering students to determine or recognize what
is more effective, efficient, and durable between modern and old traditional way of building
infrastructure.
The result of this research may help as a guide to engineering students on having
In order for us to have an essential and effective research, the researchers managed an
interview as the medium and one of the instruments to collect relevant and necessary
information/responses from the participants. The people in the field of engineering are
knowledgeable enough to answer the questions on the interview that will be managed by the
researchers. The questions written on the questionnaire are personally made by researchers.
Participants will be asked by the researchers/interviewers while it is being recorded on a
voice recorder of mobile phones. In this way, the researchers can easily analyse data they
have gathered in the interview they conducted. The study will be conducted on selected
The 9-item questions were open-ended which provided by the researchers are related
to the study and participants involved and asked in the interview are:
practice?
3. What ideas do you know about the traditional and modern way of building
infrastructure?
Objective 2
To identify if which is better to practice or use among the traditional and modern way of
building infrastructures
1. As an engineering student, what practice do you prefer and most efficient? Why?
2. For you, what is the most durable among the two? Why?
Objective 3
To evaluate the differences between the traditional and modern way of building
infrastructures
infrastructures?
