SGER: Support for Institutes in Qualitative Research Methods

这个探索性研究的小额补助金为两个年度研究所提供支持，每个研究所将汇集大约60名研究生和初级教师以及15名教师，进行为期两周的定性研究方法的强化教学和讨论。这些研究所寻求几个互补的目标。 首先，他们对研究生和初级教师进行定性方法的培训，以便他们能够在自己的工作中改进这些方法的使用，并在自己的机构教授定性方法的研究生课程。 第二，他们允许教师介绍最近和正在进行的工作，从其他教师以及研究所的学生的反馈定性方法。 第三，他们提供直接反馈给研究所学生对他们目前的研究设计（在大多数情况下，他们的博士研究设计）。thesis）。 第四，它们为学生和教师之间提供了建立网络的机会，并鼓励合作，努力改进和传播定性方法。 2003年研究所的教学大纲和分发给与会者的Facebook的PDF文件可在CQRM网站上获得：http://www.asu.edu/clas/polisci/cqrm.This培训补助金具有为从事定性研究的学生提供杰出标准的更广泛的社会价值。

This Small Grant for Exploratory Researh provides support for two annual institutes that will each bring together approximately 60 graduate students and junior faculty and fifteen instructors for two weeks of intensive instruction in, and discussion of, state of the qualitative research methods.These institutes seek several complementary goals. First, they train graduate students and junior faculty in qualitative methods so they can improve the use of these methods in their own work and teach graduate courses on qualitative methods at their home institutions. Second, they allow faculty to present recent and ongoing work on qualitative methods for feedback from other faculty as well as institute students. Third, they provide direct feedback to institute students on their current research designs (in most cases, the research design of their Ph.D. thesis). Fourth, they provide networking opportunities among and between students and faculty and encourage collaboration in efforts to improve and disseminate qualitative methods.The institutes are sponsored by the Consortium on Qualitative Research Methods (CQRM). The syllabus from the 2003 institute, and a pdf file of the face-book distributed to attendees, are available at the CQRM website: http://www.asu.edu/clas/polisci/cqrm.This training grant has the added broader societal value of providing outstanding standards for students who indertake qualitative research.
