Quantitative research is
is about measuring. It produces hard facts and figures, and uses statistics and numbers to draw conclusions and make an analysis. Many researchers in the field of health and social care use quantitative approaches and produce quantitative data. They may carry out ‘experiments’ using many of the rules of scientific investigation. In general, if you are reading research that provides statistics and numerical information and is based purely on facts, it is likely to have used one of the quantitative approaches. Many government publications are good examples of quantitative research – they give statistics in relation to the National Health Service, for example, such as the numbers of patients on waiting lists, the numbers having a particular operation or the numbers or the numbers of residents in nursing homes throughout the country.

Qualitative research A qualitative approach looks at the quality rather than the quantity of something. It could be used, for example, to investigate the feelings of people who have remained on the waiting list for treatment, or people’s attitudes towards residential care, or the relationships between those in residential care and those who care for them. Generally, qualitative data is produced in words rather than figures and will consist of descriptions and information about people’s lives, experiences and attitudes.

Your work practice should be updated and improved as a result of reading research articles, watching TV programmes and attending training days. It is often difficult to find time to keep up to date and to change the practices you are used to. Any form of change takes time and is almost always a little uncomfortable or unusual to begin with. You will need to make a very conscious effort to incorporate new learning into your practice. You need to allocate time to updating your knowledge, and incorporating it into your practice. You could try the following ways to ensure that you are using the new knowledge you have gained.

Thanks this is very useful, sometimes i just seem to read and re read the question and feel like I am getting know where.
I wonder sometimes how much the assessor is wanting me to write, for instance "explain" well i can explain things but i wonder how much they want, "Summarise" this is to me concise and straight to the point - not to waffle as I usually do!! :)

I often struggle with this to (Mainly the describe, although it seems the easiest.)
Like for instance; 054 3.1- Describe how to respond to complaints.

(This was my answer)

I would respond to complaints by;
 Listening carefully
 Ensuring confidentiality
 Providing a quiet place in the environment
 Giving the complainant time and respect
 Recording the information
 Reporting to a senior member of staff
 Accessing the complaints policy and ensuring the complainant has a copy
 Ensuring all parents are made aware of the policy and its content on first contact, with easy accessibility always.
 Ensuring the complainant knows what will happen next.

My assessor sent it back to me and told me this is not describing! and has asked me to do it again.

(I dont quite know what else to do)

Hi, the information you've posted is excellent to use as a checklist for how you personally manage complaints, it's a list that you could take with you when you're about to settle into a new position or to help make the transition from one set of procedures to a new set or assess new responsibilities.

How you put the list into practice will depend on each individual setting that you work in.

Maybe add extra information to describe what happens by identifying the different forms used in the setting for formal/informal complaints, describe where they're kept, who has access to them and how this ensures confidentiality, who handles complaints eg. manager, designated officer, and deals with the process from submission to resolution/action plan. Where is your quiet place to make complaints, explain how this privacy, time and respect provides the opportunity to express exactly what the grievance is and how by enabling this ability to communicate it supports your parent partnerships.

Hth

i would agree this isn't describing it is listing. describe means to say what you would do so for example
recording the information i would do this by........

making a list demonstrates very little knowledge so the describe component is important.

on my classroom wall i have three huge posters which say
HOW WHY and BECAUSE if an answer doesnt have these in then it is probably insufficient .

good luck!

That list is so useful. I'm sorry I've only just found it. Really helps understand what type of answer the different questions require.
I've had trouble wording the ones that begin analyse but think I have a better idea now.

This is great thank you. I find doing a course where I am not with other learners or tutors on a regular basis the 'wording' of things confuses me so this helped a lot! ..Can anyone tell me what i should put when the 'answer' was an observation or has been assessed by my tutor please? :-)
