This course offers a hands-on introduction to creative approaches to doing qualitative research. It is designed for researchers and PhD students who already have a background in qualitative research techniques and would like to expand their knowledge to include more creative techniques. The course will engage with various stages of research including data collection and analysis through to sharing qualitative data.
The course is taught by a team based in Sociology. The team are all members of the Morgan Centre for Research into Everyday Lives which is established internationally as a centre of excellence for research in the fields of personal life, relationships, and everyday life.
The course will begin by introducing what is meant by doing qualitative research creatively and course participants will have the opportunity to provide short introductions to their research projects.
Participants will be given a practical and hands-on introduction to methods such as elicitation and sensory methods. We will also introduce facet methodology and cover creative ways of analysing qualitative data and practical and intellectual strategies for sharing qualitative data.
The course includes practical exercises involving creating qualitative data and data analysis. Participants will also have the opportunity to discuss methodological issues related to their ongoing research projects.
