COM3005 Research Skills: Assessment 2 - Big Data and IT Analysis

This report, for the COM3005 Research Skills module, examines the crucial role of Big Data and Information Technology in modern society. It begins by addressing tutor feedback on communication and research skills, followed by a mini-proposal that outlines the research topic: the analysis of Big Data and IT's influence on society. The report highlights the interdependence of Big Data and IT in supporting societal performance and addresses the growing concerns regarding data security and information leaks. The research aims to identify how these technologies impact organizational growth, employing a qualitative research approach with an inductive research approach and interpretivism philosophy. Data collection methods include primary sources like surveys and questionnaires, and secondary sources such as books and journals. The report discusses the methodology for data analysis, focusing on creating themes to prove the research's aim. The research includes references to support its findings, including books, journals, and online sources related to the topics of Big Data and IT.

ASSESSMENT 2
Evidence

Responding to feedback
The feedback of the tutor was regard the quality of the communicational skills and the
research skills that was explained in the assignment. In order to responds to that proper proof
reading was done for being able to find out the key issues that are with the assignment 1. In this
all the sources that are collected for the use of information is studied for being able to gather the
information that is required. This is also considered to be the factor that is able to gather the
growth of the operations. Use of proper tools for measuring the reliability of the data gathered is
going to be very effective for analysing the success with the assignment.
MINI PROPOSAL
RESEARCH TOPIC:
To analyse the role of Big Data and Information Technology in society. This topic has
been used because it is considered to be a very common issue in the current generation. It has
been found that the involvement of the Big Data in business has been the current trend for the
digital business.
SUMMARY
Both the big data and IT are considered to be very important part of the world in the 21st
century. They are also dependent on each other for supporting the performance of the society.
These preferences are also considered to be very important for the individual to be able to

generate the aim that is the key towards the success of identifying the problem. Society is also
facing the issue of leak of information due to the big data (5 Essential Concepts for New Data
Scientists, 2021.) The needs of security have also increased due to the increase in the use of these
two factors. The understanding of the ways in which these factors work is considered to be the
key part of the success that is able to influence the learning.
BACKGROUND TO THE PROBLEM
Big Data can also be leveraged as the focus of the forecast of the ways in which the
different aspects with related to the weather, market, business, customer behaviour and other
factors can be studied. IT also plays a very important role in the society as it is able to play a
very significant role in the ways in which the it changes the ways in which people are
communicating in the society (Galati and Bigliardi, 2019). This is able to provide the
information that is needed for the work to be conducted in the form of business and interact with
the government agencies and how they are managed.
AIM OF THE RESEARCH
The aim of this research is to find the role that both the Big Data and Information
Technology is playing in influencing the factors that affect the growth of the organization. This
research is going to also help find the measure that are going to aid in the use of these two factors
for the growth of the organization (Zheng and et.al., 2020).
METHODOLOGY
Research type
In this research the qualitative form of research type is going to be used that is going to
help in indicating the ordinal values. Qualitative research involves any research that uses data
that do not be able to indicate the ordinal values for studying thing in their natural setting to
make sense of the
Research approach
This research will be using the inductive approach to the research that involves the
search patterns from the observation and also the development of the explanation of theories.
Research philosophy

Interpretivism philosophy is the one that is used for this research that is going to help in
the contribution of how the business is going to help in the achievement of the results that are
required (Tirachini, and Cats, 2020).
Data collection
The collection of the data in this research is going to be of both primary and secondary
sources. Primary sources will include data through survey and questionnaire results. For
secondary data the sources are going to be books and journals that are going to use for the
supporting the findings.
SOLVING PROBLEM
The data that is going to be collected is going to be used for creating themes that is going
to prove the aim of the research that is related to the ways in which these factors are affecting the
business objectives. The focus of this research is to identify the aim of the research that is able to
gather the information that is required for achieving the results.
