However, there is quite some agreement on what good practices of qualitative research are. In this module we will start in lesson 1 with a discussion of good practices of qualitative research.

por XJJun 4, 2017
Please provide the complete transcript of a week in pdf format like quantitative research methods?\n\nThe slides are too dark (black background) and don't look good in print.

Genuinely engaging and challenging. The more I engaged, the more I made sense of the challenge. I finish with a new set of useful skills to take forward in work and life.
por LPJun 6, 2016
Interesting and very special course ,because of it qualitative nature.Though this also adds the assessment problems.I would give a 5+ ,if not the assessment part.
por CGJul 28, 2019
The assignments were really interesting and I understood everything. However I found the lecturing style distracting so just read the transcripts and slides.
por MKSep 21, 2016
The material is good and the professors quirky way of presenting is interesting to me at least. I'm enjoying his lectures and am able to follow his examples.
