Dersin Amaç ve İçeriği

Course Objectives: The course will attempt to answer the questions on the neutrality and the difficulties of research. Attempting to answer those questions and the various issues underlying them is the primary objective of the course. This will be achieved through combining a theoretical and practical approach to the study of qualitative methodology.
The second objective of the course is to explore both the “hows” or research and, at the same time, examine the underlying assumptions and values of qualitative research practices.
The third and overarching objective of this course is to examine not only how one goes about “doing” those aspects of one’s work but also delve into a variety of ethical, epistemological, ontological and methodological issues, as well as improving critical thinking and increasing methodological knowledge inherent in that “doing.”
Course Content: In the last two decades, emerging theories in qualitative research have drawn attention to the complexities inherent in research.
In light of these theories, research can no longer be regarded unproblematic, objective, or value free, where data is neutrally and naturally collected, interpreted and textualized by disinterested researchers. Rather, research methodology has become a problematized and contested terrain depicting a double crisis of representation and legitimation. What is (and why) this double crisis? And what implications might it have for the field of qualitative research and for the researcher working (in) that field?
