Overview

Module aims and purpose

This is a compulsory module delivered at 澳门六合彩开奖记录 providing an overview of qualitative research design, methodologies. methods and analytic techniques. The two main themes are: a) intellectual traditions underpinning qualitative research methodology; b) research design, data collection and analytic issues associated with conducting qualitative research.

These themes are explored through relevant methodological and philosophical theories and conceptual frameworks, as well as exemplar studies and students鈥 own work. Students are encouraged to engage actively and critically with the theoretical and empirical content of the module through interactive lectures and preparatory exercises, drawing upon their own research as examples. Moreover, students are expected to demonstrate an ability to integrate theories and research practice in their coursework.

Module learning outcomes

By the end of the module, it is expected that students will be able to demonstrate a critical understanding of:听

  1. Qualitative research design, including the role of the researcher听

  1. Typical methodologies within the qualitative tradition and their associated research methods for collection and analysis听

  1. High impact qualitative research听听

They will demonstrate their ability to integrate these learning outcomes into a research proposal for qualitative research.听

Module content

The module covers a rich and varied palette of qualitative research approaches through weekly lectures that introduce the student to the qualitative research process. Following an introduction to the qualitative tradition the course covers听alternative paradigms and beliefs, the essentials of a rigorous, reflective and relevant research design, including the role of the researcher explores core methodologies such as case study, ethnography, grounded theory and process and longitudinal research, followed the major methods for data collection and data coding听analysis in the qualitative traditions. Finally it considers the role of qualitative research in theorising and the process of communicating qualitative research听both orally and in the written word.听 The module uses structure activities designed to develop the student鈥檚 ability to reason critically and analytical, construct original arguments learn independently and work effectively in groups to support thinking.

Structure

Teaching and learning methods

The module comprises interactive lectures where students are encouraged to discuss their own research and apply the topics to their own area and that of others in the class. Students are encouraged to familiarise themselves with key readings and contribute to the lectures, sharing their ideas and relevant journal articles from their research area. Some classes have exercises to reinforce the learning while others require students to give an account of how a particular research method is used in their field. Students are expected to have supervision with their supervisors on at least four occasions during the course to clarify their use of methodology.

Study hours

At least 0 hours of scheduled teaching and learning activities will be delivered in person, with the remaining hours for scheduled and self-scheduled teaching and learning activities delivered either in person or online. You will receive further details about how these hours will be delivered before the start of the module.

Assessment

Requirements for a pass

50% pass mark - 鈥淪tudents need to achieve an overall module mark of 50% to pass this module.鈥

Summative assessment

Written coursework assignment A focused qualitative research proposal with reflections on a short pilot study application of a method 100 5,000 words Semester 2 week 7

Penalties for late submission of summative assessment

This module is subject to the Penalties for late submission for Postgraduate Flexible programmes policy, which can be found at:

/cqsd/-/media/project/functions/cqsd/documents/qap/penaltiesforlatesubmissionpgflexible.pdf

The Module Convenor will apply the following penalties to work submitted late:

  • where the piece of work is submitted up to one calendar month after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): 10% of the total marks available for that piece of work will be deducted from the mark;听
  • where the piece of work is submitted more than one calendar month after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): a mark of zero will be recorded.

You are strongly advised to ensure that coursework is submitted by the relevant deadline. You should note that it is advisable to submit work in an unfinished state rather than to fail to submit any work.

Formative assessment

Formative assessment is any task or activity which creates feedback (or feedforward) for you about your learning, but which does not contribute towards your overall module mark.

A formative presentation in the final week of Semester 1 will provide faculty feedback on the research design that will be the foundation for the final assessed research proposal.
