Ma'Mon Abu Hammad

Key challenges with paper-based data collection methods:

Time-consuming: Paper-based data collection processes can be time-consuming due to the need for manual data entry and transcription. Researchers have to spend additional time inputting data into electronic formats, which can be prone to errors.

Data entry errors: Manual data entry increases the risk of errors, including typographical mistakes, missed entries, or misinterpretation of handwriting. These errors can lead to data inaccuracies and may require additional effort to identify and correct.

Joseph Amailuk

Yea, Ma'Mon Abu Hammad agreed; my biggest worry is the data entry errors. It so corrupts everything.
