Within Reader 6 a quote that I felt a particular connection with was Black's "quantitative research is quite good at telling us what is happening, and often qualitative studies are better at determining why events occur". The interesting argument that although quantitative research mainly referred to for data results, which would largely not be appropriate for my particular line of inquiry, is sometimes necessary to get a solid base for the inquiry, is one I related to for my own. With the ideology that then using qualitative research prior to the data in order to elaborate upon the inquiry and therefore make the results more reliable. For this reason I decided to make my informal trial a survey for others partaking in this course based on the series of original inquiry questions I had designed at the beginning of the module.
I was able to create the survey and then share amongst peers using the popular website:
www.surveymonkey.com
This website has enabled to me to make many surveys in the past and shows the responses clearly for analyses.
How much knowledge do you believe you have about nutrition?
Where did you learn this?
Is it an aspect of your profession you find important? Why?
Are you always able to fill your dietary requirements?
What do you find most difficult about keeping to your dietary needs?
Does your profession affect your opinion about your dietary requirements?
Were you advised about nutrition during training?
How helpful did you find it?
Do certain foods seem to affect your dancing abilities?
Have you been injured during your training/career?
What was the injury?
What do you believe caused the injury?
Do you often feel tired or unmotivated when dancing?
Do you find it difficult to stay focused whilst rehearsing/performing?
If given the opportunity, would you wish to learn more about your nutritional requirements?
I would greatly appreciate any more responses, although this survey is aimed at dancers only, using the link below:
