Week 8: Population and Sampling.

Image
In the first case, when saying about the population, we would have to ask the estimation of overall population in large space area. For example, the number of teacher in Selangor. is about 31.7 million people in 2016.  It is obvious that making an interview or distribute questionnaire to more than 30 million people and will required a very huge effort in many field. To make it, there will be long period of time, huge spent of money as it is necessary to employ many people to do interview, and distribute questionnaire. There're a lot of factors need to consider when applying the population and sampling method. Therefore, somehow we ”destroy” this element of the population. If we would have to try each and every battery of the population, we would keep none of them.

The feel of reasoning in problem statement is like, the half of the thesis's heart have been complete. By starting the chapter 1, I can find several problems that related to my study. And of course because of my interest in occupational safety and health field, I do several reading to find the problem present to be investigate. Regarding to the readings, I could see that the implementation is not yet become our culture or in other word, I can say, the OSH Culture in our society. The knowl
