As always I enjoyed reading your blog posts since you sincerely recap on what you have learnt throughout the week and structure your thoughts in an easy and clear manner. We probably all have gone through qualitative and quantitative methods throughout our school or university life, still, you highlighted two important aspects I haven't thought about anymore. In our seminar we started to discuss our bachelor theses, which also shows how different bachelor programs produce diverse methods in approach. Reading through your pre theme post, it is obvious that you analyzed the research paper on FoodLog in-depth, in order to detect its strengths and weaknesses. Great job!

You did a great job reflecting on the past week by extracting the most important things you have learnt. In my blog post I also put together the key elements when setting up a questionnaire, that's why I found your inside information on this particularly interesting. I share the opinion that even seemingly unimportant things like the layout or the number of questions can already influence the data results. Therefore, questionnaires are one very defining part in the design research of quantitative research studies and strongly shape the quality and magnitude of the outcome.

Thank you for your reflections on this week's theme Quantitative Methods. I agree with you that this topic neither gave away a lot of new information nor provided much room for a discussion similar to our first themes. However, it is very interesting to read about your group discussion and in particular about the categorization procedure of a questionnaire. Moreover, your clear structure succeeds in guiding the reader through the text and communicates your knowledge well. Well done!

It was interesting to read about your thoughts and experiences during the past theme. Each week we have passed, it gets harder to remember what we had actually read for the week, so I agree with you and admit to always re-read my own postings as well! In our seminar, we ended up discussing the methods of our bachelor theses, but in the end that just proved how diverse quantitative methods could be. Reading your pre-bog post, I think your revision of methodology is very helpful. Also the division into the areas of design, sampling, data collection and data analysis was a great way to answer the given questions enhanced by the clear structure. You did a great job preparing and reflecting on this week and I enjoyed reading your postings!

I really enjoyed reading about the research paper chosen in your pre-post and the insight scoop on its chosen variables and the outcome of the study. In your reflections you also demonstrate your knowledge about the qualitative and quantitative methods while detecting their benefits and limitations. I was particularly interesting to read about your bachelor thesis topic! Great job!

Thank you for your well-rounded reflections on this week's theme quantitative research. It feels like you have a deep knowledge of the subject and can appoint easily when this method should be used. In addition, your explanation on its benefits by using your research paper achieves to emphasize the accuracy and scope of this method. Furthermore, I think you're text is very well written and nicely structured. I especially appreciate the text highlights since they really emphasize the most important messages.

You did a great job reflecting on what you and your seminar group have learnt and discussed this week. I especially appreciate your comment on the gender perspective of the article Drumming in Immersive Virtual Reality, since I haven't thought about this before. You also summarized perfectly how categorization in quantitative research can also influence the quality of the outcome by its limited response scale. However, there's probably no perfect solution since one is dependent on classification with a growing data extent, but when using a more individual method of gathering data, the research is very likely smaller and not generalizable at all.

You really demonstrate an usual and distinct approach in your reflections, which made it very interesting to read! I haven't though about the levels of subjectivity and objectivity in quantitative method in-depth like you did, but now with your structure, well-written thoughts and examples you really explained the difference and the underlying problems perfectly.
"Although abuse of data is much less found in research papers than in magazines, newspapers, polls and TV, it is important to realize that statistics is not always “objective” or reliable." How often do we hear 'based on the study of...', 'following new numbers of...' in nowadays media. Your statement here really zones in on the problem of quantitative methods: that the word study might actually have a bad connotation since it is misused in our everyday life and that we are actually confronted with a lot of wrong data on a daily basis!

Your reflection really summarizes all the important messages of this week's theme quantitative methods. It is clear that you already had a good understanding of these techniques before, but I still appreciate your concise discussion of their benefits and limitations. I especially like that you put your own thoughts in this and tried to get more out of the topic, although you were very familiar with it. You found a good example to explain the combined use of qualitative and quantitative methods - this really visualizes how research can increase in value by blending both together. Enjoyed reading your posts!

Thank you for your well-written and crisp reflection! You succeed in guiding the reader through your text making it easy to follow your thoughts. It is interesting that the lecture and seminar could change your perspective on objectivity and how we are often judging before assessing. Your explained the connection between the design of the study and the researcher's perception in a very understandable manner. The visualization with candy really helps to clarify your point in favor of a combination of the two methods: "this would shed light on our perception of quantity" – Well said!
