knowledge about providing a rationale for the method selected and understanding the best method to use to answer the research question was biased towards a quantitative approach.

research as a method that collects data evidences and analysis data in numerical format which are based on the positivist position. Quantitative research is a type of research design which is concerned with measurement and to test relationship between variables (Janet 2009, Punch and Punch 2005). This research study design is classified broadly as experimental and non-experimental which are further categorized into various types according to time of experiment and time of data collection (Valmi 2007).
