Three days National Level Workshop on "Research Methodology, Statistical Data Analysis and Interpretation" using SPSS & AMOS, 9th-11th February, 2018, Chennai

Research Methodology: It is often necessary to include a consideration of the concepts and theories which underlie the methods. For instance, if you intend to highlight a specific feature of a sociological theory or test an algorithm for some aspect of information retrieval, or test the validity of a particular system, you have to show that you understand the underlying concepts of the methodology.
When you describe your methods it is necessary to state how you have addressed the research questions and/or hypotheses. The methods should be described in enough detail for the study to be replicated, or at least repeated in a similar way in another situation. Every stage should be explained and justified with clear reasons for the choice of your particular methods and materials. There are many different ways to approach the research that fulfils the requirements of a dissertation. These may vary both within and between disciplines. It is important to consider the expectations and possibilities concerning research in your own field. You can do this by talking to your tutors and looking at dissertations written by former students on your course.
Data Analysis: Preliminary data visualizations including histograms, boxplots, density plots etc. Summary statistics, correlation, simple regressions, analysis of variance, cluster analysis, principal component and factor analysis (depending on the level of statistical expertise of the participants).
