This book provides theoretically grounded, real-world advice for students beginning to learn how to conduct qualitative research. Drawing on Erin Horvat’s extensive experience teaching qualitative methods, the text uses students’ questions and concerns as an organizational framework.

While designed specifically for beginners, seasoned qualitative researchers will find useful insights, helpful tips, and new ways of thinking about qualitative research. Book Features: Real-life, engaging research examples with detailed advice. A succinct and user-friendly presentation, perfect for course adoptions. Lessons from students as they learned how to do qualitative research. An appendix with site selection and site prospectus guidelines.
