- Plan a strategy for gathering data
- Consider about what type of data you need with your choices
(quantitative or qualitative or both)

- Implement data collection takes time

- Keep accurate record, organizing data files, examining the
quality of information

- Show the results to others to find out how they would interpret
the findings.
- Compare some group data or relate several variable
- Keep the data analysis manageable, identify useful information
- A plan may be an informal statement
- A plan to reflect on alternative approaches to addressing the
problem or share with other what you have learned
- Formally write out this plan or present it as an outline

- Show the results to others to find out how they would interpret
the findings.
- Compare some group data or relate several variable
- Keep the data analysis manageable, identify useful information
