Quantitative research consists of various stages, from the initial idea to data collection to analysis.

This session looks at the various stages of designing and analysing a quantitative study, with the goal to plan your data collection and analysis together rather than as separate tasks. By the end of this session you should understand how to choose the data you need to collect and how to make a data analysis plan.

Further information will be posted on the Maths & Statistics Canvas module before the class.
