Observation is a primary method of collecting

data by human, mechanical, electrical or electronics

means with direct or indirect contact.

Observation is the main source of information in

the field research. The researcher goes into the field and

observes the conditions in their natural state. There are

many types of observation, direct or indirect, participant

or non-participant, obtrusive or non-obtrusive,

structured or non-structured etc.

TOPIC INTRODUCTION

Observation is a technique that involves

systematically selecting, watching & recording:

* Behaviour

* Events

* Noting Physical Characteristics

WHAT IS OBSERVATION?

Data collection possibilities are wide and varied

with any one method of collection not inherently

better than any other

Each has pros and cons that must be weighed up

in view of a rich and complex context

DATA COLLECTION OPTIONS

8/8/2019 Project 524

All methods of collection require rigorous and

systematic design and execution that includes

Thorough planning

Well considered development

Effective piloting

Weighed modification

Deliberate implementation and execution

Appropriate management and analysis

DATA COLLECTION PROCESS

PRIMARY:

Primary data are those data which are collected

fresh and 1st time & thus happens to be original in

character.

SECONDARY:

Secondary data someone else has collected

TYPES OF DATA

8/8/2019 Project 524

10/24

COMMUNICATION METHODS:

Interacting with respondents

Asking for their opinions, attitudes, motivations,

characteristics

OBSERVATION METHODS:

No interaction with respondents

Letting them behave naturally and drawing

conclusions from their actions

Observation relies on the researchers ability to

gather data though their senses - and allows

researchers to document actual behaviour rather

than responses related to behaviour

However, the observed can act differently when

surveilled, and observations can be tainted by a

researchers worldview

OBSERVATION

OBSERVATION CAN RANGE FROM:

From structured to unstructured

Disguised or Undisguised

Natural or Contrived

Non-participant to Participant

Personal

Mechanical

OBSERVATION TYPES

The observation process is sometimes treated

casually, but is a method that needs to be treated

as rigorously as any other

The process should include planning, observing,

recording, reflecting, and authenticating

Methods of collection data depends upon:

Nature of problem

Time and Money available

Mostly, data is collected through use of

primary source. one has to collect primary

data for which a number of methods are

available such as observations, in-depth

techniques, experiments and surveys.
