  • A phenomenographic analysis seeks a "description, analysis, and understanding of … experiences”
  • Phenomenography is not phenomenology. Both phenomenography and phenomenology have human experience as its object; however, phenomenology is a philosophical method, with the philosopher engaged in investigating their own experience (Marton & Booth, 1997).

qualitative methods research

  • In the No Child Left Behind Act, Congress set forth the expectation that for research to be considered of a high quality, it must be scientifically based.
    • This term "scientifically based research" can actually be quite provocative, I think! Especially when it becomes so closely linked to a certain research method/methodology. - on 2008-04-16
