During the last seminar
of this course we began by discussing the papers we had read, first in smaller
groups followed by a full class discussion. One thing i found to be interesting
is what was discussed in relation to case studies. There seemed to be some
ambiguity concerning what a case study actually is. I don't remember all the
details at this time, but one example of a case study that was brought up,
described how researchers had created an artificial environment, in which they
placed their test subjects, to study their behaviour.
I found the topic of qualitative research quite interesting and perhaps some of the knowledge i gained will
come to good use this up coming period.
Hi Anton,
SvaraRaderaI think the example of researchers create an artificial environment in which they can place their subjects to study their environment. Its interesting that its even is working. I mean, I though doing a case study was all about studying and investigate a real area or case. So I don’t really know how this is working. I also think our discussions according to case studies have brought me new insights and will help me in the future.
