Description
In this course, you will gain a good understanding and knowledge about fundamentals of qualitative research. In this course, my aim is to teach you, both the theory, including different types of interviews and interview questions, and practice - including Postpositivist Worldview, Constructivist Worldview and Transformative Worldview. Moreover, we will learn about different research design like Phenomenology, Ethnography, Grounded Theory and Narrative Inquiry.  Research Problem, Theoretical Framework development, conducting literature review and Sample Selection are cores of this course. While doing so, I also point to specific sources in the literature, so that you can find them and support your arguments with academic references.
