Definition
• Data- refers to groups of information that represent
the qualitative or quantitative attributes of a variable or set of variables
![Page 3: Educ 190_Data Analysis and Collection Tools](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052410/55494263b4c905144d8b5390/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Definition
• Data Collection and Analysis
- Data are collected, created, and kept for the purpose of analysis
- Without analysis, it’s just a bunch of bits

Data Collection Tools
• VistaMetrix– VistaMetrix provides an easy way to extract
useful numbers from graphical images, especially when the data used to produce an image is unavailable.
– This includes graphs, maps, or other images that might be scanned, downloaded from the Internet, or captured as digital photographs or video files.
![Page 21: Educ 190_Data Analysis and Collection Tools](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052410/55494263b4c905144d8b5390/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Data Collection Tools
• What can you do with VistaMetrix?1) Extract values from continuous or discrete graphs. It
handles multiple data sets and graphs that have been tilted due to scanning.
2) Measure distance and area on multiple, curved paths. Along these paths you can place annotated markers that show intermediate distances.
3) Measure angles and straight-line distances.
4) Record the color values at multiple points in the image.

![Page 33: Educ 190_Data Analysis and Collection Tools](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052410/55494263b4c905144d8b5390/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Advantages
• Capability for understanding dynamic developments in a program as it evolves
• Awareness of time and history• Availability of software for particular set of
data• Programs can cope with both multiple
codes and over-lapping codes which would be very difficult for the researcher to cope with without the aid of a computer.
![Page 34: Educ 190_Data Analysis and Collection Tools](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022052410/55494263b4c905144d8b5390/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Advantages
• Some software can conduct multiple searches in which more than one code is searched much more quickly and efficiently than by the researcher.
• Programs can pick out instances of pre-defined categories which have been missed by the researcher during the initial analysis.
• Computers can be used to help the researcher overcome ‘analysis block’.

Disadvantages
• Software can only support the intellectual processes of the researcher – they cannot be a substitute for these processes.
• The software might be beyond an individual’s budget.
• User-error can lead to undetected mistakes or misleading results.
• Using computers can lead to an over-emphasis on mechanical procedures
• Abundance of codes to memorize
