Part of the aim is to disclose the relationship between research approach (theory of science), method, (including) methodology, and content. Even though the workshop includes theoretical material, the focus will be on how this material relates to practical, research skills. Included will be training sessions in how to phenomenologically reflect (as it relates to data collection), as well as the hands-on task of how to phenomenologically approach data analysis. The participants in this workshop will contribute themselves with the data material to be reflected upon and analyzed. A time slot in the schedule has also been made so that preparatory tasks could be completed. Specific instructions for assignments and tasks will be provided on Day 1.
The course is organized by Centre for Women’s, Family and Child health, and is open for internal and external applicants.
