Qualitative Research Design
This book gives researchers and students a user-friendly, step-by-step guide to planning qualitative research. Rather than the rigid, linear approach to design that is usually found in research methods textbooks--and which is particularly ill suited for qualitative research--this book presents a flexible, systemic model of design. Based on a course that the author taught for 7 years at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, it is written in an informal, jargon-free style and incorporates many examples and hands-on exercises.
This edition includes new or substantially expanded discussions of research paradigms, defining a research problem, site and participant selection, relationships with research participants, data analysis, and validity, as well as more examples and exercises. This model not only better fits what experienced qualitative researchers actually do, but provides a clear framework for designing a study and developing a research proposal.
