The course addresses different research methods and designs for generating data and analysis. Different types of study designs will be covered from both quantitative methods (e.g., experimental and epidemiological studies), qualitative methods (e.g., grounded theory and phenomenological studies) and mixed-methods studies. The course illustrates a scientific approach where students formulate a research question and choose an approach in terms of method and design, while also considering the strengths and weakness of data generation and analysis.
Mandatory online meetings will be held according to the schedule.
Surf on the Internet, read and send emails, use a word-processing programme (e.g. Word). Connect a camera and headphones to the computer and install a programme using instructions.
