This intermediate-level course builds on prior knowledge about qualitative research approaches and their philosophical bases. The emphasis in this course will be on how the approaches affect sampling and data collection, data management, analysis, interpretation, and write-up. Students will also examine the writing of qualitative research proposals, including consideration of ethical issues. The course is based on active involvement of learners through studentdirected discussions and hands-on experiences, guidance and facilitation by graduate faculty with expertise in qualitative research, and interdisciplinary collaboration with faculty and classmates.
