Mixed Methods (LT)

New

Mixed and multi method approaches are increasingly common in the social sciences. Whilst much has been written about the justification, design and benefit of mixed methods, there is correspondingly little published empirical research which rigorously employs such approaches. In this interactive session, we will consider what mixed and multi methods approaches are, when you might use them, and - most importantly - start to think about how you can integrate quantitative and qualitative data (a) across a series of studies and (b) within a single study.

• Postgraduate students and staff
• Further details regarding eligibility criteria are available here

Number of sessions: 4

• To define key aspects of mixed and multi methods approaches, and describe their applicability within your research

• To identify research questions appropriate for mixed methods approaches

• To be able to describe key considerations in combining qualitative and quantitative data

Moodle is the 'Virtual Learning Environment' (VLE) that the SSRMP uses to deliver online courses.

SSRMP lecturers use Moodle to make teaching resources available before, during, and/or after classes, and to make announcements and answer questions.

For this reason, it is vital that all SSRMP students enrol onto and explore their course Moodle pages once booking their SSRMP modules via the UTBS, and that they do so before their module begins. Moodle pages for modules should go live around a week before the module commences, but some may be made visible to students, earlier.

This module runs once in Michaelmas Term, and once in Lent.
