The project was to test the salinity of the water in the hotwell. On checking the salinity meter, the readings were unexpectedly high at 500ppm from the normal 0.5 to 2ppm.

Data collection is vital for any aspect of any research study. However, inaccurate data collection can lead to poor results and ultimately be, a waste of time. There are two main strategies of data collection these include quantitative method and qualitative method. Quantitative data collection, relies on structured methodologies and random sampling. As a result of good quantitative method, research results are in many cases easy to generalize and summarize. In comparison, qualitative data collections are equally important in evaluating and establishing information needed to understand and assess changes in people’s needs and perceptions on smoking.
