II. PRESENTATION (Lesson Proper)

Discuss the following specific subject areas, giving examples to

make points clear when necessary

• define sample and population;

• recognize the importance of slovin’s formula;
• solve problems involving slovin’s formula; and
• differentiate the types of probability sampling techniques.

*SAMPLE AND POPULATION

A population is the entire group that you want to draw conclusions about. It is known as
a larger set from which the sample is drawn.
In research, a population doesn’t always refer to people. It can mean a group containing
elements of anything you want to study, such as objects, events, organizations,
countries, species, organisms, etc.

A sample is the specific group that you will collect data from. The size of the sample is
always less than the total size of the population.
 *SLOVINS FORMULA

• is used to calculate the sample size (n) given the population size (N) and a
margin of error (e).
• it's a random sampling technique formula to estimate sampling size.
whereas:
n = sample size
N = total population
e = error margin / margin of error

Example1:
For instance, in your research, if the population is 1,000 and the margin of error
you allow is 5%, what is your representative sample?

✓ 1st step: Identify the given values

N = 1,000 e = 5% or 0.05 𝑛= ?
𝑁
✓ 2nd step: Write the slovin’s formula 𝑛= 1+𝑁𝑒2
1, 000
✓ 3rd step: Substitute the given values 𝑛= 1+(1,000)(0.05)2
1, 000
✓ 4th step: Solve for the value of n (PEMDAS) 𝑛= 1+(1,000)(0.0025)

1, 000
✓ 5th step: Solve for the value of n (PEMDAS) 𝑛= 1+(2.5)

✓ 7 step: Solve for the value of n (PEMDAS) 𝑛 = 285.7142 or 285.71
✓ 8th step: Round off to find the sample size 𝑛 = 286 respondents
✓ 9th step: Draw a conclusion
∴ the total number of respondents to be studied is 286.
Example2:
For instance, in your research, if the population is 5,555 and the margin of error
you allow is 10%, what is your representative sample?

✓ 1st step: Identify the given values

N = 10,000 e = 5% or 0.05 𝑛= ?

∴ the total number of respondents to be studied is 385.

*SAMPLING TECHNIQUES

1. Simple Random Sampling - is a method of obtaining a sample from a

population in which every member of the population has an equal chance of
being selected.
2. Stratified Random Sampling - is a method of obtaining a sample from
a population in which the population is divided into important subgroups and
then separate simple random samples are drawn from each subgroup
which are known as strata.
3. Cluster Sampling - is a method of selecting a sample from a
population in which the population is divided into subgroups (i.e.,
clusters) and a simple random sample of those subgroups is taken; all
individuals within these clusters may be sampled, or a simple random sample
may be taken from the selected clusters.

*STRATIFIED RANDOM SAMPLING COMPUTATION

▪ ABM = 180
12A = 48 12B = 45 12C = 47 12D = 40
▪ HUMSS = 200
12A = 45 12B = 43 12C = 38 12D = 34 12E = 40
▪ STEM = 95
12A = 35 12B = 37 12C = 33
▪ TVHE = 87
12A = 31 12B = 29 12C = 27
▪ TVIA = 58
12A = 30 12B = 28
✓ 1st Step, Find the value of N or the total population.
ABM = 180
HUMSS = 200
STEM = 95
TVHE = 87
TVIA = 58
N = 620 Grade 12 students

✓ 2nd Step, Determine the sample size using slovin’s formula.

▪ 1st step: Identify the given values

N = 620 e = 5% or 0.05 𝑛= ?
𝑁
▪ 2nd step: Write the slovin’s formula 𝑛= 1+𝑁𝑒2
620
▪ 3rd step: Substitute the given values 𝑛= 1+(620)(0.05)2
620
▪ 4th step: Solve for the value of n (PEMDAS) 𝑛= 1+(620)(0.0025)

620
▪ 5th step: Solve for the value of n (PEMDAS) 𝑛= 1+(1.55)
620
▪ 6th step: Solve for the value of n (PEMDAS) 𝑛= 2.55
th
▪ 7 step: Solve for the value of n (PEMDAS) 𝑛 = 243.1372 or 243.14
▪ 8th step: Round off to find the sample size 𝑛 = 243 respondents
▪ 9th step: Draw a conclusion

∴ the total number of respondents to be studied is 243.

✓ 3rd Step, Determine the strata sample on each strand using the stratified
random sampling percentage computation.

Identify the total number of students per strand and divide it to the total number
of Grade 12 students to get the percentage of respondents in each strand to
be studied and multiply to the total number of sample size being determined.

ABM = 180/620 = 0.29*243 = 70.54 or 71 respondents

HUMSS = 200/620 = 0.32*243 = 78.39 or 78 respondents
STEM = 95/620 = 0.15*243 = 37.23 or 37 respondents
TVHE = 87/620 = 0.14*243 = 34.09 or 34 respondents
TVIA = 58/620 = 0.09*243 = 22.73 or 23 respondents

✓ 4th Step, Determine the strata sample on section using the stratified random
sampling percentage computation.

Identify the total number of students per section and divide it to the total
number of Grade 12 students per strand to get the percentage of respondents
in each section to be studied and multiply it to the total number of available
survey forms.
▪ ABM = 180
12A = 48/180 = 0.26*71 = 18.93 or 19 respondents
12B = 45/180 = 0.25*71 = 17.75 or 18 respondents
12C = 47/180 = 0.26*71 = 18.54 or 19 respondents
12D = 40/180 = 0.22*71 = 15.78 or 15 respondents

▪ HUMSS = 200
12A = 45/200 = 0.22*78 = 17.55 or 18 respondents
12B = 43/200 = 0.21*78 = 16.77 or 17 respondents
12C = 38/200 = 0.19*78 = 14.82 or 15 respondents
12D = 34/200 = 0.17*78 = 13.26 or 13 respondents
12E = 40/200 = 0.20*78 = 15.60 or 15 respondents

▪ STEM = 95
12A = 32/95 = 0.33*37 = 12.46 or 12 respondents
12B = 30/95 = 0.31*37 = 11.68 or 12 respondents
12C = 33/95 = 0.34*37 = 12.85 or 13 respondents

▪ TVHE = 87
12A = 31/87 = 0.35*34 = 12.11 or 12 respondents
12B = 29/87 = 0.33*34 = 11.33 or 11 respondents
12C = 27/87 = 0.31*34 = 10.55 or 11 respondents

▪ TVIA = 58
12A = 30/58 = 0.51*23 = 11.89 or 12 respondents
12B = 28/58 = 0.48*23 = 11.10 or 11 respondents

✓ 5th Step, as you completely determine each stratum for each section of all the
Grade 12 students, you can now proceed in identifying your named
respondents using the random sampling technique using fish bowl material.
Make sure that everyone will be given a chance to draw on the fish bowl.

• Recapitulation of the lesson/Important points discussed

SAMPLE - a small subset of a larger set of data.
POPULATION – is the larger set from which the sample is drawn.
SLOVINS FORMULA - is used to calculate the sample size (n) given the
population size (N) and a margin of error (e). It's a random sampling technique
formula to estimate sampling size.
whereas:
n = sample size
N = total population
e = error margin / margin of error
