Evaluation methods
Students appraisal is based on two mechanisms:
-an individual written report summarizing the research design (question, approach, data collection, analysis and interpretation) (70%);
-a group presentation of selected readings (providing a 3-pages summary of the articles or chapters , presentation (slides) and questioning) (30%).
Teaching methods
Methodological and theoretical lectures of teachers, accompanied by empirical studies illustrations, alternate with discussions and applications with participants. All based on reading of scientific articles and book chapters deemed essential to master qualitative research methodologies in Management students summarize, and present will discuss in groups.
In addition, students will be invited to work concretely on a qualitative research project related, to their doctoral thesis. Two options are possible: the student who has not collected qualitative data yet develops a research design and data collection tools; the student who has already collected qualitative data, analyze and interpret data.
