Research Methodology

Upon establishing a research topic in addressing the current education discourses in the architectural environment. The methodology was the next item to be negotiated. Researching into quantitative vs qualitative, it was quickly realized that both items approaches would be needed. The reason for this is that the statistical data for example 53% of 1.5 billion total global world don't have access to private digital devices, isn't separate to the booklet series on "Decentralization of Education". Its like Manuel Castells discusses in network society, that excluding data from the network means it can't negotiates self as a whole. Therefore mixed methodology was chosen. To export the research topic, "Miro" the free version (online whiteboard/virtual studio) was used to negotiate literature reviews and statistics into the form of research knowledge network. See below the first screen grab on the example of a mixed research approach which was used to start the development of the research topic. Taken on the 11/09/2020.
