Week 1, Module 5
There is considerable debate about whether the conflicting foundational assumptions of quantitative and qualitative research methods allow researchers to "mix" methods. The readings above offer a number of different answers, and approaches to this question. How will you address the issue of "mixing methods" in research?
Week 2, Module 5
How do you justify the mixed method research position you find the most relevant and sound for the type of research you wish to conduct? For all discussions, you will need to respond to or evaluate two peer postings with at least a 125-word response. This will cause you and your peers to generate creative ideas and concepts for your Case Assignment and SLP. As required for all discussion questions, your response must be appropriately referenced and supported.
