I had been always thinking there are
something similar or even same between the qualitative research
approach of grounded theory and DBR's experimental studies. Because
both of them are inductive, producing some theories to guide the locale
practice.
Also, both of them, the researchers must adjust their questions, methods, and strategies according to the data they collect in the researching process.
Today I just read Sharan B. Merriam
et.al's book of Qualitative Research in Practice, and found there are
some clearance for both of them:
"Unlike hypotheses in experimental
studies, grounded theory hypotheses are tentative and suggestive rather
than tested."
I hope I could read more about these two conceptions.

I have not belived what my mentors and peers told me: Reading through
the articles' or books' reference until just now I read through a
reference and found something useful for my coming QUAL8400 assignment due:
We have an assignment due on Feb 1st, which is requiring us propose a article using qualitative research methodoloy and make comments.
And I just found there is a journal named :"Qualitative Studies in Education".
That will be helpful for me find one article realted with my research interest I think. |
