The ESRC National Centre for
Research Methods,
School of Nursing & Midwifery,
School of Education, School of Management, and the Southampton Research & Development Support Unit,
are pleased to announce three
seminars on
Controversies
in qualitative research
These seminars look at disputes and ‘hullabaloo’ surrounding three qualitative approaches – action research, participatory research and biographical/narrative research – which are increasingly used in research on health, education, management and organisation.
The seminars will be deliberately provocative – we have asked two experts known for their challenging and stimulating contributions to the debates to start off each seminar and we are hoping that participants will join in with what promises to be a lively and engaging seminar.
There is no
such thing as action-research – isn’t it just ordinary change
management?
