Explanation / Answer

a- Sample

Description how sample will be selected for proposed study :- Two samples need to be taken one of teachers that use Social media to reach out to the students and Second of Students to understand the effectiveness

Characteristics of population are described.- 1. Teachers that use Social media 2 . Students of such teachers

Rationale is provided for choice of sampling method.:- Stratified Sampling , based on purpose

Sampling scheme, number of participants, and characteristics of participants are appropriate for the proposed study.:- Generally in stratified sampling the number of participants is less so you can decide how much sample you want based on your convenience ( in that case it will be stratified convenient sampling) , ideally 8-10 such teachers and 20-30 students is sufficient

b-Instruments:

The instruments you are proposing to use (questionnaire, interview, etc.) :- If a large sample is there then predefined questionnaire is best but if you have less number of sample for example 4-5 teachers then use unstructured interview or Focus Group Discussion

Description of how the instrument was developed or chosen.;- Questionnaire if developed should have a scale of 1-5 with difference questions such as their perceived effectiveness . frequency of interaction etc rest it depends on you entirely whatever you may want to ask

Instrument(s) match study objectives and purpose.

Administration, scoring, and administration are fully described.

Discussion of instrument validity and reliability. Wont be a question if unstructured interview or Focus Group Discussion is taken . Also it is very hard to generalize the results from this research question as every student may have different opinion about the effectiveness and usefulness of using Social media

Instrument(s) is/are well thought out, easy to interpret, and neither too long or too short.

Procedure

Procedure is directly related to the research objectives / questions.

Study design is identified and appropriate for the research objectives and sample.

Ethical consideration are clearly described. Tell participants before hand what and why you want to do

Procedure described in sufficient detail to enable replication of study.

Questions of validity and reliability have been addressed.

Proposed Analyses

Description is provided detailing the proposed analyses. depend on answers of survey groups

Proposed analyses directly address research objectives (questions / hypotheses)

Demonstration of understanding of analyses choices is present.
