| How to Design a Mixed Methods Study | |||
| The intent of this interactive workshop is to learn the steps in designing a mixed methods study and to practice the steps by writing a plan for a group study. Mixed methods research is a design for collecting, analyzing, and mixing both quantitative and qualitative data in a single study or a series of studies. To implement this definition, workshop participants will go through steps such as identifying a research problem and question, specifying the types of quantitative and qualitative data to collection, considering the reasons for mixing, specifying the type of mixed methods design suitable for their research problem, learning how to visually depict their type of design, and understanding the basic of data analysis within the types of designs. Emphasis will be placed on four distinct types of mixed methods designs. During the workshop, participants will write out the components of a group design and individuals with mixed methods projects in mind can write out their projects. At the end, the group and individual projects will be shared with all participants. | |||
