This module covers the theoretical and practical aspects of mixed methodology. Firstly, we will explore the theoretical and ethical dimensions of mixed methodology. This is followed by an examination of the different types of mixed methods, including discussions regarding the strengths and limitations of using this approach. Finally, we will engage with the practical aspects of collecting data using mixed methods, and associated analytical strategies. Throughout the two day module, we will engage in discussion, debate and practical tasks in order to experience various aspects of using a mixed methods approach to research. A context for the module will be mixed methods in educational research but with application to other social science areas.
