Talk:Qualitative_research
Nidhi + Roger: I've noticed that each lesson-plan in session two needs a time allocation if they are to be consistent with previous formats. Arathi
Yes, I've put in some estimates in bold italics and would ask Nidhi to confirm or disagree. Also, I think we need to decide whether to split these up into three separate 'sessions', since the topics are different (and this would make it easier for people to navigate through the 'structure of the course' and find what they are looking for.

Ethics - a separate section?
Roger, I've had a look through the places where issues of ethics arise so far in the workshop. It does seem to be integrated in the sessions which is important, but i think perhaps a more focused brainstorm in this session 2 could be valuable: it could help situate further references to ethical considerations, so they don't get mistrued as appendages or side-issues to the sessions at hand. There is reference in this session to 'reflexivity and ethics'. Perhaps a short brainstorm for participants to do about what this means in the context of 'good' qual research, and being a 'good' qualitative researcher. What are the ethical issues, requirements, dilemmas of each research context? WHOSE issues/requirements/dilemmas are these? HOw does a reflexive approach help us to 'see' what the dilemmas might be? How do we go about addressing these in our work, at each stage of the work (ie, not a tick-box approach to ethics.) Just an idea. Any thoughts? Arathi.
Thanks, this is useful. I think there is a danger that ethics will be forgotten about after this session -- and the issues under the 'ethics' section are long enough and complex enough to warrant being flagged up, I think, with a separate heading and link. Then we would also need to go through all the other sessions and check whether ethical issues are flagged up everywhere they should be (and perhaps then linked back to this session). I know the ethical issues are there in the visual methods; not so sure about the fieldwork sessions, for example. Let's see what Nidhi thinks. Roger
