Seminar Room 2/3, Gilbert Murray Hall<br />
Research Workshop – H<strong>and</strong>ling qualitative data: Part 1<br />
Professor David Pedder<br />
University of Leicester<br />
This workshop will provide practical h<strong>and</strong>s-on opportunities to work with qualitative data using<br />
inductive <strong>and</strong> deductive approaches. The data examples are drawn from research with (a) beginning<br />
<strong>science</strong> teachers <strong>and</strong> (b) experienced <strong>science</strong> teachers who consult their pupils about the helpfulness<br />
of their teaching.<br />
As we compare inductive <strong>and</strong> deductive approaches to data analysis, we shall focus on key aspects of<br />
the collection, management, interpretation <strong>and</strong> reporting of qualitative data, looking in particular at<br />
how decisions in these areas connect with research aims <strong>and</strong> questions.<br />
