Hi ,
I am writing a research proposal for one of my units. My research topic is leadings factors of poor mathematics performance in Fiji. Though, I have chosen this topic, I am a little confused on what research paradigm will be more suited to this kind of research and also the research methods that will be more suited. I am also a bit confused when it comes to relating epistemology ad ontology to my research, together with positivism, constructivism and so on. Can someone assist me on what types of such methods and methodologies and paradigms will be more suited. As for me, I thought to use mixed methodology which includes a mixture of quantitative and qualitative research.
