Research Methodology
This section presents the research design, locale, sample and sampling
Research Design
The study used qualitative research design since the study assessed the
data in order to find distinct themes and their connections. The researchers
prefer choosing words or short phrases because they are simpler to recall,
skim, and arrange. Specifically, inductive coding, also known as open coding,
begins with a blank slate and produces codes depending on the qualitative
data. The researcher did not have a predetermined codebook; all codes come
from the survey results themselves. This method were used to gather data on
