Research design is often the process one might use in order to answer a research question. Research method refers to a strategy that is used to make that process work. For example, if a person wanted to answer their research question, they may consider using a descriptive, correlational, experimental, review or meta-analytical design in order to obtain the information they want (Watson, 2018). For a descriptive design, a person might create a case-study, use naturalistic observation or survey’s in order to obtain the information they are looking for. A meta-analysis can be used as a statistical tool to filter results from many different scientific studies to create a better picture of their research (McKechnie & Fisher, 2019).

Research methods are equally valuable in order to make these designs work. Some of the most common forms of research methods include survey’s and experiments. When choosing research methods, it is important to consider the amount of detail one is looking to find, as well as the amount of time they must find their research. Survey’s are good at collecting data in a timely manner but can certainly lack in terms of depth and descriptiveness. They can also draw out information from a larger population than other methods with far less time being consumed. Experimentation on the other hand is a much slower process for collecting research data that can be painstaking if done the right way. However, experimentation can also lead to better research with much more depth than survey’s can ever obtain.

*I tried to create the essay, but I’m having a hard time, i dont think I’m answering the questions correctly. Here is a draft, I have to record a 3 min video answering those 3 questions

Coming from La Havana Cuba in a population of nearly 3,500 people in the 1980’s. I am

very fortunate to be alive as we know in a country which was under communism, we had very

limited education. Although my grandfather was a Doctor in Cuba my parents made it their

primary obligation to get myself and my brother a better education in order to for us to have a

promising future. With that being said we migrated to the United States and became Legal

Sworn American Citizens. I’ve always studied hard in school and had a passion for the medical

field as a young child and also have been uncertain as to exactly which field I wanted to major

in. Upon graduating from high school I began having children and caring for my kids felt

amazing. I never knew how much caring for someone aside from yourself could have an impact

on you.

I went on to work with a Diploma on EKG’s, I did this type of work for several years yet

I lack something. I felt the need to be more hands on with my patients where I could interact

more effectively. Yearning for more I enrolled myself for the nursing program to satisfy my

passion in the medical field. I desire to help those who are less fortunate to help care for

themselves in hard times like we’re currently facing today with the Coronavirus with the

education which will be taught to me throughout my school along with my personal experience

on having a miscarriage. I nearly lost my mind and soul, although I was educated enough to take

care of myself throughout my pregnancy. I never once imagined this could have happened to

someone who may have experience high volume of stress from work or school or perhaps it may

have been lack of vitamins. Well once everything had subside, I soon realized that yes I had just

got a new job and my stress levels were in fact really high causing extreme amount of stress on

the fetus. No unborn fetus (child) should have to go through such a horrific ordeal and this is my

mission a future nurse whether in the NICU or just in the ER I want to educate women in general

to pay attention to the minor factors in life that could cause damage to your physical well-being.

I truly believe that I will impact the live of patient, families along with loved ones in a

very impeccable way that they will forever remember my name and service rendered to them. I

plan on helping my community the best way possible especially in times of crisis like what we’re

facing today. Patient’s, families and friends needs someone in the medical field that they could

relate to, someone who has been on the opposite side and knows that there is someone there to

care for them in times like a pandemic, epidemic or just a common cold etc. My job is not only

to take vital signs but it’s to relate and understand my patients the best way that I can to better

provide the assistant needed.
