Description:
This two-day workshop will support researchers wishing to produce diverse kinds of data in their fieldwork: field notes, sound recordings (of interviews, conversations or naturally occurring events), photographs (created by participants and/or researchers themselves), video images, drawings, digital text, etc. Techniques for the collection and analysis of multiple modes of qualitative research data will be explored. The workshop will address the questions: How can we make informed choice between various modes and media? How can various modes be meaningfully combined in research practice?
Primarily based on the combined use of textual, visual and audio field data, the course will give participants the opportunity to experiment with collecting and analysing different kinds of qualitative data and to consider how they might be combined both practically and theoretically.
Cost:
UK Registered Social Science Postgraduate Research Students free of charge (subsidised by an ESRC advanced training bursary). A limited number of travel bursaries are available to social science research students enrolled in a UK HEI.
