Breve descrizione
The course offers a basic methodological understanding of the diverse paradigms, approaches, methodologies and methods/instruments that are used in educational research. Each meeting is devoted to one or more research approach or projects, presented by colleagues from the Department, with a specific attention for qualitative and interpretative studies (e.g. phenomenological, ethnographic and action research methodologies), as well as mixed methods. The link between research questions, context and research design will be explored during the course. A critical and reflexive attitude will be required, as well as reading and analysing research papers. Due to the wideness of the topic, this can be only intended as an introductory and orientating course, and each student will need to reflect and position her/himself in relation to the methodology, and epistemology, of her/his choice.
