Course contents :
|
| Qualitative approaches are fruitful to produce theories congruent with phenomena that interest humane sciences. However there is no simple reciepe for qualitative research. Its learning requires a regular practice, in order to be able to construct accurate theories by yourself. This course is designed as a framework for such a learning-in-action. Grounded Theory Methodology (GTM) is referred as a formalisation of qualitative research rather than a particular technique. |
|
Learning outcomes of the course :
|
|
- Label the operations of qualitative research using the terms from the Grounded Theory Methodology : microanalysis, labelling, open coding, axial coding, selective coding. All peculiarities of each of these operations have to be known.

- Identify, sort and organize topics from one of several texts. Generate accounts at a theorical level.
- Write and edit (coding, analytical, theorical, scenario) memos according to accurate their styles and rules
- Update log
- Listen and learn from other analyses
- Generate theories accounting broader situations
