It is time to revisit this blog. By doing this I am actually taking a break (a short break) from the fragments of data that I have collected for my study. The project paper has to be submitted in two weeks time. It was really hard to piece them together and to make meaningful discussion from them. So, this short break allows me to refresh my mind like defragmenting a hard disk.
The study I conducted was a qualitative study. Why it was the choice? The answer is when I came across this verse in the Holy Quran... which means
In The Name of Allah The Most Compassionate and The Most Merciful
O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise (each other). Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is (he who is) the most righteous of you. And Allah has full knowledge and is well acquainted (with all things).(49:13)
This verse encourages me to know the students more. Students were not born with same qualities, attitudes and needs. After I had taken a naturalistic enquiry class, I started to love this way of study in observing humans. Based on the experience I had, this type of study was easy to conduct but interpreting the data was extremely hard. I would say ... like eating sambal belacan! It is extremely hot but it is nice to eat. The picture below are something I would share how the process of interpreting the data looks like.
The coding process
Coding --> recoding --> coding --> recoding arghhhh...
My reused girlfriends - Murcia & Freeman. They are hot babes!
