Research Sampling Sample Clauses

Research Sampling. Data were collected with the help of three main instruments such as face-to-face individual semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions and lesson observations. The selected teachers were informed via e-mails where they received the official consent forms with the explanation of their rights and duties to take part in the study as respondents. It was considered to be beneficial for the researcher in order to create a comfortable atmosphere for the participants for getting their assistance and support within the research. The participants were selected through maximal variation sampling strategy (Xxxxxxxx, 2014) which included next criteria: a) Teachers with and without prior to NIS teaching experience; b) Men and women; c) Science and language subjects; d) Teachers’ willing to participate. Thus, two teachers were selected as the main participants of this study for conducting individual semi-structured interviews. Each participant was interviewed twice. The first main participant is a woman who is a teacher of English with 10 years of experience. Meanwhile, the second main participant is a man who is a teacher of biology with 2 years of experience. In addition, I also observed their lessons for analyzing their assessment practices. Eight teachers were selected for two focus group discussions with four teachers in each group. Both groups involved teachers of science and language subjects. They teach Kazakh, English, Mathematics, Biology and Physics. The experienced teachers were selected according to their previous assessment practices who used a traditional 5 scale assessment, and whose teaching experience varied from 6 to 20 years. The second group of participants included new teachers who had not previously used any other assessment models at all because they had just graduated from universities, and those whose teaching experience did not exceed 3 years of teaching in general. Thus, the focus group of experienced teachers included a teacher of Kazakh with 20 years of teaching experience, a teacher of English with 7 years of teaching experience, a teacher of chemistry with 6 years of teaching experience and a teacher of mathematics with 6 years of teaching experience. The focus group of teachers with a small experience included a teacher of English with 1 year of experience in a mainstream school, a teacher of physics with 1 year of experience in NIS, a teacher of mathematics with no experience, and a teacher of biology with 1 year of experience i...
