Qualitative Data Analysis

A Methods Sourcebook

The Third Edition of Miles & Huberman's classic research methods text is updated and streamlined by Johnny Saldaña, author of The Coding Manual for Qualitative Researchers. Several of the data display strategies from previous editions are now presented in re-envisioned and reorganized formats to enhance reader accessibility and comprehension. The Third Edition’s presentation of the fundamentals of research design and data management is followed by five distinct methods of analysis: exploring, describing, ordering, explaining, and predicting. Miles and Huberman's original research studies are profiled and accompanied with new examples from Saldaña's recent qualitative work. The book's most celebrated chapter, "Drawing and Verifying Conclusions," is retained and revised, and the chapter on report writing has been greatly expanded, and is now called “Writing About Qualitative Research.” Comprehensive and authoritative, Qualitative Data Analysis has been elegantly revised for a new generation of qualitative researchers.

Active Learning and Student Engagement

International Perspectives and Practices in Geography in Higher Education

This book examines significant issues in geography teaching and learning from the perspectives of an international network of academic geographers and postgraduate students. Drawing on classroom experiences and research in a wide variety of educational settings, the authors describe conceptually interesting and practical applications for enhancing student learning through inquiry, problem-based learning, field study, online collaboration, and other highly engaging forms of pedagogy. Other articles focus on approaches for improving the experiences of distance learners, strategies for enhancing the employability of geography students, and preparing students to engage ethical issues in the discipline. An international audience of educators will find much of value through the use of comparative examples, literature reviews encompassing research in multiple national contexts, and an underlying awareness of the diversity of practices in higher education internationally. This book is a collection of articles previously published in two special issues of the Journal of Geography in Higher Education.

The Science of Writing

Theories, Methods, Individual Differences and Applications

Conceived as the successor to Gregg and Steinberg's Cognitive Processes in Writing, this book takes a multidisciplinary approach to writing research. The authors describe their current thinking and data in such a way that readers in psychology, English, education, and linguistics will find it readable and stimulating. It should serve as a resource book of theory, tools and techniques, and applications that should stimulate and guide the field for the next decade. The chapters showcase approaches taken by active researchers in eight countries. Some of these researchers have published widely in their native language but little of their work has appeared in English-language publications.

So a subsidiary question in the research into writing processes should be on the
interrelation between the distinguished cognitive activities, especially the relation
between metacognition and cognitive activities. What is the functional span of
metacognitive activities? To plan to structure, but not engage in not structuring at
all for some reason, and to plan to structure followed by structuring should have
different outcomes. We estimated the covariance between time and the
correlation ...

Five Interventions Designed to Strengthen the Confidence-accuracy Correlation

Accountability should again induce participants to engage in more effortful
metacognitive processing, resulting in a higher confidence-accuracy correlation.
Retrospective narration should also improve the confidence-accuracy correlation,
because it makes available the thoughts and perceptions guiding each answer.
Context reinstatement should improve the confidence-accuracy correlation
because it provides participants better access to their initial thoughts and
perceptions.

Appleby Talking

As far as he could tell, he was the only human being for miles - but it turns out that he was the only living human being for miles. At least, that is what he presumed when he found a dead man on top of the tor.

And that would mean that the varmint thinking to stick the dagger in the cadaver
would stick it in the late professor instead.” “I see.” Appleby was looking at Albert
with serious admiration; the fellow didn't look very bright – nevertheless his days
in the Force should have been spent in the detective branch. “It's a better theory
than we've had yet, I'm bound to say. But it leaves out two things: the
disappearance of the original body, and the fact that Finlay was stabbed from
behind. For if he ...
