Research on Usage of Internet and other resources by school students
1. Research Methodology
Research will be generated through questionnaires and it will be both quantitative as well as qualitative. Apart from collecting the responses to questionnaires, we will also interact directly with the students, teachers and parents. This will help us gain further insights, as the responses will be candid and more spontaneous. The student and teacher/parent responses will be analyzed and compared.
Primary research will be conducted at various schools to collect responses for the questionnaires. We will visit the schools and get the responses from students and teachers. We will also try to visit some schools during the parent-teacher meet so that the parents’ responses also can be recorded.
