Post by Day 4 an explanation of the criteria you could use to evaluate alignment between
data collection methods and other research components, such as the problem, purpose,
research questions, and design. Then, reflecting on the course content, discuss the extent to
which your newly acquired research knowledge and skills can support your role as an
agent of positive social change. Be specific and provide an example(s).

analysis. First the researcher should conduct a frame survey on the target population using any
information that is available in relation to the target population. The next step is to conduct a
pilot survey on the target population to determine whether the method of data collection in place

population under study. This data can be very beneficial to me in implementing appropriate
changes in the community based on the generated results. The data gathered shows areas of
concern in the target population. I can use this data to determine the necessary adjustments that
