CASE STUDY PART 3: MIXED-METHODS OR COMMUNITY-BASED APPROACH

READINGS & VIDEOS FOR MODULE 4 LEARNING OUTCOMES 1. Explain basic concepts related to mixed-method research design. 2. Explain basic concepts related to community-based research design. 3. Modify an initial research proposal description to a mixed-method and community-based design that aligns with a proposed research question. 1. https://youtu(dot)be/BL0TExnypcg 2. https://youtu(dot)be/IyPgfb_QsZU Research Design: Quantitative, Qualitative, Mixed Methods, Arts-Based, and Community-Based Participatory Research Approaches - Patricia Leavy Chapters 7, 9 Social Science Research Design and Statistics: A Practitioner's Guide to Research Methods and SPSS Analysis First Edition - Alfred P. Rovai (Author), Jason D. Baker (Author), Michael K. Ponton Chapter 2 For this module, add your information from the previous module, then create the following three parts: Part 3A - Update: Provide an update on your methodology based on feedback from your classmates. Sometimes, with research grants, the researcher must create “potential alternative research approaches” to your topic. So, for this module’s topics: Part 3B - Mixed Method: Whichever methodology (quantitative or qualitative) you decided on in the last module, provide one paragraph describing how you could potentially change it to mixed methods. Don’t simply say “add the other methodology.” Describe the order of the different methodologies and your rationale (citing sources). Part 3C – Community-based Research: For this part, describe in one paragraph how you could potentially change your research proposal from the previous module into a community-based research design. Ensure you highlight the differences between your methodology from the previous module and this type of methodology.
