300262 Introduction to qualitative research methods (V) (WiSe 2025/2026)
Contents, comment
-
The lecture focuses on the methodological foundations and premises of various qualitative methods, covering the most important qualitative methods (participant observation and ethnography, interview (including group) methods, conversation and image analysis as well as central analysis strategies). At the end of the lecture, participants will be able to differentiate between different methods and data types of qualitative empirical social research, make a well-founded selection and assess their requirements (also when planning their own research). In this respect, the lecture can serve to refresh basic knowledge and (e.g. after a change of degree programme or university) to provide orientation in the level of qualitative methodological skills common at the faculty.
