The sampling design being used is available sampling, also known as convenience sampling. This method involves using participants who are readily available and willing to participate, without any randomization or specific criteria. In this case, the researcher is only using the students in their research methods class, who are available and willing to participate, without any randomization or selection criteria. While this method may not be the most representative or generalizable, it is the most practical and efficient given the constraints of the situation.
