1. Primary & secondary research.

PRIMARY RESEARCH

=Primary research is the research that you can get by asking question, conducting trial and collating result. This research can take form of quantitative or qualitative research.

·         * Quantitative research

Is a research that use scientific approach and make the hypothesis. From the hypothesis there are researchers will figure out whether to approve it or disapprove it. The technique use are usually easy to measure and the data generate can be analyses mathematically.

·         * Qualitative research

This research is more concern about opinion and feeling. The data not necessary end up with the group of number that can be analyses it can be look at the total picture rather than the separate component.

=The primary research is more complex and need the in depth exploration

=One to one talks with activities industry players & observation

=Only focus to the prospect companies 

SECONDARY RESEARCH

=Secondary research is a research that base on the finding from other people research. It is include the research that we can get from the books, reports, or internet. All the information that we get must be gathered to support your conclusion.

Secondary research may also include:

·         *Statistical analysis

·        * Information analysis

=Secondary research can save time and you can easily incorporate your sources from Internet searches into your folio.

=Obtain from public source and focus on market.

=Easier to conduct and need broad understanding.

2. Visual anthropology

I’m tried to search about this word and I don’t really understand what the meaning and what is actually visual anthropology is. This is what I get,

=Visual anthropology is about human, the study of visual aspects of human behavior and the use of visual media in anthropology research, representation and teaching

=Research topics include sand paintings, tattoos, sculptures and reliefs, cave paintings, scrimshaw, jewelry, hieroglyphics, paintings and photographs.

 And this is a video that I get from you tube about visual anthropology:

Subj : Critical Thinking
Lect : Mr. Kamarul

We are ask to pick 2 thing and draw 10 picture from the thing that we have pick.

So this is my drawing may be not nice but I try my best to draw it.

This is the 2 thing that I have picked:

1. Feather

2. Sugar case

1. The sun and the flower.

From here I understand that the flower need the sun to grow and to get energy same goes to human, human need sugar to get the energy to do a lot of work in a day.

2. The eye.

Every human being use eye to see and record what happen in their daily life and the eye are very important part of the body. Without eye human being will feel very difficult to move and do a job. It same goes to the function of the sugar, our body needs sugar to gain the energy. If our body do not have sugar we will feel weak.

3. The snail.

The shape of the sugar case are round so I think it is similar with the shell of the snail.

4. The tortoise.

 The shell of the tortoise is round so I put the sugar case at the back of the tortoise and it look like the shell of the tortoise. We as a human need sugar if our body contains less sugar we will feel weak and do not have energy. When we not have energy the work that we want to do will be slow like a tortoise.

5. An orange

The shape of orange are circle same shape with the sugar case. Orange have a lot of vitamin and inside the orange also contain sugar that need in our body.

6. The lizard.

The pattern of the feather like a tiger fur so I imagine that the pattern on the lizard body.

  7. The pen.

The ends of the feather are sharp and also look like a pen. It has been use long time ago.

8. Cover of the Keris

The pattern of the feather very nice and it will be nice if we use it as a cover of the Keris.

9. Perfume bottle.

The pattern of the feather can be the cover of the perfume bottle and the end of the feather look like the tube in the perfume bottle.

10. Dress.

The feather pattern can be the new design for the dress and it looks nice.

WHAT I GET FROM THIS ACTIVITIES

* Try to think faster and always think creative.

* Don't scare to make a mistake

* Try to think something that outside of the box about the thing.
