About This Course
At the end of the course, the participants will be able to: (1) describe the various ways of collecting data from children, (2) state the affordances and limitations of the various data collection methods; (3) design research that apply the data collection methods introduced.
What You'll Learn
Collecting data from children can be challenging as they may not have always have sufficient language and attention span to clearly articulate their needs, thoughts and feelings.
This course provides an introduction to diverse data collection methods that have been tried and tested by researchers to elicit and document data from children. These methods range from traditional ethnographic observation and interview to visual-based methods and those involving props. How these methods can be used will be explained in the context of social service-related studies that have employed them in their research design.
Participants will gain insights into the affordances and limitations of the methods. Tips for conducting research with children will also be shared.
