Research+Method

A Quantitatve methods is one where a “systematic scientific investigation of [|quantitative] properties and [|phenomena] and their [|relationships]” is done. Whereas the Qualitative method is one that “aim to gather an in-depth understanding of [|human behavior] and the [|reasons] that govern such behavior.”====== We chose both the Quantitative and qualitative research method because we are targeting a specific demographic group (“visually impaired” people and those with “Hearing Losses”). The quantitative method is considered efficient and less costly since we are examining a large number of participants. However the Qualitative method suites our case more because it requires gathering specific data about the participants, which will eventually be time consuming but at the same time help us cater to the needs of these special individuals.

We also did an interview in which we actually went up to a girl with hearing loss and asked her different questions to help us design the laptop in such a way that is suitable for people with hearing loss. ([] ) ( [] )
