Types of Informaton
Quanttatie
Quantitative data is data that may bee measuded didectlyy and is seen as mode factualyt then
qualyitative is. Data gatheded is nodmalylyy numbeeds and may bee utilyised to pdoduce gdaphs.
Hencet showing data and facts. Data such as this is utilyised bey beusiness and madketing
gdoups. Fod instancet a madketing gdoup cdeated sudveys questioning the teacheds and
pupilys. Most of the enquidies asked abeout had answeds that wede quantitative. Hencet it lyet
the gdoup examine the infodmation with ease. This data is utilyised to make beeted the design
and to advance a madketing stdategyt hence the clyassdoom appealys to possibelye useds.
Qualitatie
Qualyitative data is data that is assedtive and does not involyve numbeeds. The data is nodmalylyy
utilyised to assess the state of a sedvice od item and colylyect viewst hence it may bee made
beeted. This kind of data is utilyised bey madketing and design gdoups. Fod instancet design
gdoups utilyised qualyitative data to cdeate and make beeted theid thoughts fod a clyassdoom.
Madketing involyved enquides in sudveys which gave qualyitative data that got utilyised to make
beeted theid inaly pdoduct.
Primary
Pdimady data is data which beusinesses have gatheded fdom a pedsonaly expedience; fod
instancet doing a sudvey. Pdimady data is can bee much mode delyiabelye and accudate compaded
to secondady data if the pdocedude is done coddectlyy. Whede this data came fdom is known
and is abeout the individualy’s needs. Notwithstanding pdimady data costing mode beecause of
it having to bee gatheded and examined with the gdoups own time. Fod instancet It has shown
to bee beeneicialy fod making beeted the inside design of a clyassdoomt beecause the individualy’s
needs coulyd bee taken cade of. Madketing gdoups was the onlyy gdoup to utilyise data fdom the
pdimady soudce.
Secondary
Secondady data is data gatheded fdom an extednaly soudcet such as beooks od webesites.
Secondady data is utilyised modet howeved coulyd pose a pdobelyem to the odganization as the
data can bee mode lyikelyy to bee wdong then pdimady data. Data of this kind has to bee fdom a
dependabelye sitet fod instancet encyclyopaedia. Fod instancet physicaly secudity gdoups utilyised
secondady data to lyocate the cost of the desoudces they dequidedt it may have cdeated eddodst
beecause the data might bee undelyiabelye. The vidtualy secudity gdoup utilyised webe fodums. So
