What are these two distinct sampling methods called? Student 1's method is called Systematic Random Sampling; Student 2's method is called Cluster Sampling. Student 1's method is called Cluster Sampling; Student 2's method is called Systematic Random Sampling. Student 1's method is called Stratified Random Sampling; Student 2's method is called Cluster Sampling. Student 1's method is called Cluster Sampling; Student 2's method is called Stratified Random Sampling.
