To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Review the Learning Resources related to qualitative research.

  1. What is the phenomenon of interest?
  2. What experiences or contextual issues might influence how this phenomenon could be studied?
  3. In what setting(s) could a topic like this be explored?
  4. What connection do you have to this topic, and why do you think it is important to explore this as a qualitative study?
  5. What possibilities could the results of this research have for social change?
