INI ADALAH SEBUAH VIDEO OBSERVASI

Introduction

This tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on how to conduct an observational study on transportation, as demonstrated in the video by SOCIAL MIRACLE. The purpose is to help students understand the process of gathering and analyzing data for a sociology assignment, specifically focusing on transportation modes.

Step 1: Formulate Your Research Group

• Identify group members and assign roles:
  • Chairperson: M. Kelvin Reyhan
  • Secretary: Ayunda Syafne
  • Editors: Surya Faridh Ramadhan, Olga R
  • Online Transport Researchers: Haidir Fadillah, Alfiansyah Ramadhan
  • Public Transport Researchers: Ayunda Syafne, Alvi Anaya, Annisa Putri Sajdiah
  • Location Surveyor: Angga Pradana
  • Location Surveyor: Tongku Syarif
• Ensure each member understands their responsibilities for an organized approach.

Step 2: Define Your Research Objectives

• Determine the specific aspects of transportation you want to observe:
  • Types of transportation (public vs. online)
  • Frequency of use
  • User demographics
• Write down these objectives to guide your observations and data collection.

Step 3: Plan Your Observation Strategy

• Select locations for observation:
  • Consider busy areas where different transportation modes are available.
  • Schedule times for observation to capture peak usage.
• Develop a checklist of what to observe:
  • Types of vehicles
  • Number of passengers
  • Waiting times

Step 4: Conduct the Observation

• Visit the selected locations on the scheduled dates.
• Use the checklist to systematically record your observations.
• Take notes or use a voice recorder to capture real-time data.

Step 5: Analyze the Data

• Collect data from all group members and compile it into a single document.
• Organize the information into categories based on your research objectives.
• Look for trends or patterns in the data, such as:
  • Most commonly used transportation mode
  • Peak times for use

Step 6: Prepare Your Report

• Structure your report clearly:
  • Introduction (overview of the research)
  • Methodology (how observations were conducted)
  • Findings (data analysis and key observations)
  • Conclusion (summary of results)
• Assign sections of the report to different group members based on their contributions.

Conclusion

In summary, conducting an observational study on transportation involves careful planning, clear role assignment, systematic data collection, and thorough analysis. By following these steps, you can successfully complete your sociology assignment and gain valuable insights into transportation usage. For next steps, consider sharing your findings with your classmates or presenting them in class to spark discussion on transportation issues.
