Data analysis enables you to get the most out of data. Not only does it allow you to describe past events, but it also allows you to explain them, find relationships between them, and predict them. Data analysis is an ongoing process that should occur throughout your research project.
There are different types of data analysis methods and tools available.
The tool of data analysis depends on the type of data you have and what you want to achieve with it.
If the data you have is quantitative, then you should choose the quantitative method. Otherwise, you should choose the qualitative method.
In the case of quantitative analysis, you would have tools like average, mean, mode, median, regression, correlation, variance, and frequency. In the case of qualitative analysis, tools like content analysis, narrative analysis, discourse analysis, and ground theory available to you to analyze the data.
