Why is a specific methodological approach and a method of analysis promising in relation to an overall research purpose and according to a specific research tradition?

In the assignment the following questions need to be discussed and argued for:
– Why is a specific methodological approach and a method of analysis promising in relation to an overall research purpose and according to a specific research tradition?
– How can exemplified data (your own collected or secondary) be analysed in detail according to the chosen tradition and why is this more promising than other possible choices?
– How are quality criteria for the chosen study considered including research ethics?

Over and above embedding aspects of critical literacy, clear argumentation, skillfull reference technique and the academic style of writing the paper will be of utmost importance. Course Paper Length and Word count The course paper should be between 2500 and 3500 words in length. Course papers that are shorter or longer than the prescribed range will be affected in their grading. All text in the paper, with the exception of table of contents, list of abbreviations, appendices/annexes, and the reference list, are included in the word count.

The study will use a quantitative method of analysis.
First hand statistical data will be collected on the class sizes (student numbers) of 10 high schools from each of the 2 states.
US high schools have grades 9 through 12.
