About the Course

In this course you will be introduced to the basic ideas behind the qualitative research in social science. You will learn about data collection, description, analysis and interpretation in qualitative research. Qualitative research often involves an iterative process. We will focus on the ingredients required for this process: data collection and analysis. You won't learn how to use qualitative methods by just watching video's, so we put much stress on collecting data through observation and interviewing and on analysing and interpreting the collected data in other assignments. Obviously, the most important concepts in qualitative research will be discussed, just as we will discuss quality criteria, good practices, ethics, writing some methods of analysis, and mixing methods. We hope to take away some prejudice, and enthuse many students for qualitative research....

An interesting take on qualitative methodology. The exams are some-what tough, compared to many other coursera courses. The teacher is very enthusiastic and has a clear idea about his topic.

My submission has been done and graded, but for some reason, I am stuck and can't get past it, even though I have completed the required number of peer reviews to complete it. The course is 99.9% completed, yet I can't get past that or even see that I have completed the course or certificate. I need to proceed, as this is a specialization course, but I feel stuck

The instructor moves and jumps a lot. It is honestly kind of distracting.
