luxanne:


Lool.

Definitely not those kind. Strictly educational cartoons I agree.



So what primary level do you use then?

luxanne:



Anyways, some supervisors are like that, most times these topics they give out are their own personal projects they are either working on or intends to.

luxanne:


However, TBH with you, this topic is cool unless you don't find it interesting enough.

luxanne:


Cartoons now seen as kid's thingy? Children have always been tagged with cartoons but when they've grown up, they still can't let go even in adulthood, lool. And @your second statement, do you have a research as proof on this view of yours? Because I think its the other way round. We should find out.

luxanne:


Questions shouldn't necessarily be based on the cartoons they've watched, it could be general cartoon questions. Besides, the internet would have been helpful with these questions or even your supervisor, that is, if you both have a good resonance, afterall, its his/her topic. BTW, is your supervisor M or F?

luxanne:

Lool definitely not, you can't ask them that. But then again, you would be surprise to find out that, some of these secondary school students do not know how to read time, how about the 24 hours time format? Even adults find that difficult to read.

luxanne:

So what number of pupils are you using as case study then?

luxanne:


For the sampling technique ideal for your research, rather than using the Purposive sampling technique, how about giving out these questionnaires to pupils who watch cartoons and those who don't, from their responses, it would be effective to compare and draw conclusions...reason why I preferred you'd used the secondary school students instead, well let me not ruin your already made objectives.

Emmyk:


Primary 4.

Eh ehn... That's true oo

Tell you what, I love the topic. I really do.

Well well, not really. I do have a scholarly backing tho.

There are lots of television contents designed for different gratifications of their target audience, which may be for children, teenagers, youth or adult to achieve objectives. Cartoons and animated films were once the favourite program of viewers of different age group in the society. These cartoon and animated films were enjoyed by almost every person from different walks of life on their television sets and theatres. In the beginning when the animated movies and cartoon started their journey, the program content of both contained humour and entertainment for all age and sophistication levels. Cartoons, however, now lacked their cross-generational appeal and converted into “kids stuff” (Kellogg, 1992). Cartoon is not a precise term now a day as it is applied to multifaceted graphic form. It is the most entertaining source for kids as they developed strong affiliation and attachment with it (Kermnitz 1973).

M I'll show him my questionnaire when we resume.

I'll give that a thought.

Say 60-80

I think I'll do just that. In the section A of the questionnaire, I'll put HOW OFTEN DO YOU WATCH TV CARTOONS? DAILY? WEEKLY RARELY?

Just as you said, it will help me at the end, if pupils that thick "daily" perform better ( section B's test)... My conclusion will be PUPILS THAT WATCH TV CARTOONS REGULARLY PERFORM BETTER THAN THOSE WHO DONT. What do you say on this?

I think I won't need Purposive ST. like you said.

I'm not too familiar with the thing fa. All I know is, you use the formula to get your sample, from your population.

luxanne:


Alright

But is Primary 4 the highest level the school got? I'l recommend the highest level tho.



I see, however, these literatures aren't recent. Might be agreeable then but presently, in this 21^st century, I think cartoons and animated movies got cross-generational appeal, its no longer kids stuff.

Was gonna research on this too but it skipped me...I definitely will.





How about a sample of hundred, too much to handle?



Exactly...



Another concept for me to research upon then

9icegee:
*hmmmm my buddy!!! i miss him. hope he's ok*

Emmyk:


Alright. I'll use primary 5 pupils

That's true. I think i'll just remove that part from my project.. You know what, out supervisor even told us not to cite any author before 2000.. that is, 2000 till date... that at times, I'll see a useful quotation from a scholar and I won't be able to use it as no one as said anything related to it recently or I simply delete the author's name and I don't reference it Bad eehn?

Sample of 100... Well Taro Yamene will decide for me. You can't just pick a random number. Lemme show you the Formula n=N/1+N(e)2

where n=sample size, N=population
size, e=the error of sampling.

Whatever you get from the workings will be your sample size.... I pray it favors me tho

Emmyk:
Luxanne , how do you manage to segment my replies, treating em one by one? it's pretty tough for me as I have to copy two things for each segment

luxanne:




Of course, you can take out the sources but you'l have to edit and paraphrase it to align your objectives, and also, most importantly, you need to understand the statement just in case you will be asked to defend it.

I see...I need to visit my project again then, cuz I can't recall using Taro Yamane or any formular for sampling.

So the n = 60 or 80? (Which number exactly is your sample size?)

And you have your population size and sampling error as what?

My population size... I was planning to use 1000... the total of pupils in the 4 schools... But since you said I should limit it to primary 5pupils.... It shouldn't be up to 1000.. Sampling error = 0.05

luxanne:




[/b]

You have to use the above option on [b]each segment of my reply you quote, and your answers should be written after that...you get?

Emmyk:


Noted.

Lol. It depends on your supervisor. Some don't make it compulsory while others do.

The n' doesn't have a value yet... you just leave it that way.... it's like saying "sample size =" when you want to find your sample size, you dig?

My population size... I was planning to use 1000... the total of pupils in the 4 schools... But since you said I should limit it to primary 5pupils.... It shouldn't be up to 1000.. Sampling error = 0.05

My Research questions are
1: Does Television cartoon improve children's academic performance?

2: How frequent does the pupil watch television cartoon?

3: Should television cartoon be encouraged or discouraged?

4: What TV cartoon(s) so children wat h their cartoons?

Are they inline with my topic?
Also, in my chapter 4, data analysis I feel my number 1 n 3 research questions look similar as the table/chart that will represent the questions are their scores in the maths n English tests.

Emmyk:

Lol. I see. I do something similar just that mine is author= with the specific no of your post.

Yours seem shorter.

luxanne:


Alright.

The primary 5 pupils can also be gotten from the 4 schools innit? So they can be up to a thousand.




Yeah Q3 seems like a follow-up question that will be answered in Q1.

How about?

*To what extent are educational cartoons watched by kids?

That can replace your Q3.

Emmyk:


Yes. They can be gotten.

I'll defo keep you updated

Thanks for your input thus far.

luxanne:

Awwww you are very much welcomed dear.
It was my pleasure. Am here anytime
All the best OK?

Emmyk:

Thanks. Amen.
You still up, no?

Shymm3x

Oya talk here lol

Flashh:
Richiy, how you doing? Hope you are good?

I hardly read people's diaries on here, but I found yours appealing. Sometimes I don't seems to understand where you driving at @your diary.

Btw... What's your real name and where do you live? if I may ask and also deserve an answer.

Richiy:


Hey Lewis. Its funny that you brought me to a section of Nairaland I have never visited. Lol. The reason why you may not understand my dairy is because I kinda leave some details out. Just to maintain some privacy.
My name is Dirichi. I stay in Abuja.

Yeah! I just think this section is the a best place on here to have such conversation. I don't visit this place too though.

Yeah, people like keeping some things private, I am one of them.

I would have like to create a diary, but I am a bit conservative.

Well, lovely name you got there.

Richiy:

Ha-ha. Let this forum users catch us.

Dem no fit do me anything na. We are always bold to enter any section.

Anyways, I am only conservative in writing. Probably because I can cross check and want to maintain decorum. In reality though, I am quite the opposite.

Are you conservative online and offline? Do you know what my name means?

No! I'm only conservative online. But I do my things codedly, only those who are close to me will know much about me offline.

Would like to know the meaning of your name.
