Qualitative and quantitative research literature


Application of key ideas to case studies below: one medical education presentation, and one workshop

1. survey participants before workshop

        online survey - participant profile (age, background, training, current practice, experience, learning needs)


2. engage participants before, during and after workshop

        online survey and feedback

        invitation to submit comments or feedback

        systematic follow-up interviews - one on one and focus groups


3. collaborative project discussions and projects
