Description

Learning material: Pre course assignment: Please provide a one-page summary of your research interests, e.g. what research tradition/genre provides a framework for the research you have done or would like to do, have you ever conducted interviews, how do you usually communicate your research, and what led you to enrol on this course.

Learning outcomes

Supporting early career qualitative researchers on their way to becoming a reflexive researcher is the main aim of this face-to-face course. Over a period of several months, we will create a collaborative learning community to read and give feedback on each other's work, including but not limited to transcripts/interview extracts in order to enrich our own understanding. Everyone is welcome to join the group to be challenged and validated, whether they are doing mainstream research or experimenting with innovative methods. Group members are expected to take an active role and responsibility for their own and the team's learning.
