Lesson 2: Qualitative Research Methodology Lesson Introduction Qualitative Research Methodology This week, you will begin to further the development of your research by grappling with some questions. What is a framework, and should you use one? A framework is a lens through which you and your readers will develop an understanding of the direction and outcomes of your study. In this week’s resources are two documents that concisely define the commonly applied frameworks in research. As you review these materials and with your research problem in mind, consider why you would select one. Yes, every study must have a framework. Another consideration is: What is your worldview? According to Creswell (2013), a worldview is an orientation to the world shaped by the field of study, beliefs of self and others, and previous experience. Four worldview categories are: (a) postpositivist, (b) constructivist, (c) advocacy/participatory, and (d) pragmatism. Traditional, modern, postmodern, and integrative are other ways that you can view the world (Mertens, Holmes, Harris, 2009). After reading this week’s resources, you may be able to discern your worldview. What is the connection between that part of your thinking and your approach to the research problem? Video: Types of Qualitative Research with John Creswell . The final aspect to determine this week is whether your degree type makes a difference in selecting a framework. Read the NU document “Differentiating the Research (Ph.D.) and Applied Doctoral Degrees.” Be sure to review this week's resources carefully. You are expected to apply the information from these resources when you prepare your assignments. References: Bloomberg, L. D. & Volpe, M. (2018).
