Social scientists are often interested in untangling complex social issues, which require creative and expansive data and methods to address. Mixed methods research typically refers to research design and implementation that combines qualitative and quantitative data collection and/or analysis techniques. The goal of this two-day course is to introduce conceptual and practical frameworks and considerations in developing, designing, implementing, executing, analyzing, presenting, and writing up mixed methods research.
We will focus on practical tools and challenges confronted across the stages of mixed methods research. This course is designed for those relatively new to mixed methods research, and interested in learning about it as a research approach and learning about considerations and principles in designing and executing it. Participants are encouraged to bring questions and queries about their own projects so we can discuss these as a group.
Shiri Noy is Assistant Professor of Sociology at Denison University. She has taught both graduate and undergraduate research methods, and has conducted and published interdisciplinary and sociological research across methods and in mixed methods. She is fundamentally interested in how we approach ways of understanding the social world, and how best to collect and analyze data that helps us untangle and address issues of substantive, conceptual, theoretical, and empirical interest.
