About this listen
The best-selling guide to qualitative research, updated and expanded.
Qualitative Research is the essential guide to understanding, designing, conducting, and presenting a qualitative research study. This fourth edition features new material covering mixed methods, action research, arts-based research, online data sources, and the latest in data analysis, including data analysis software packages as well as narrative and poetic analysis strategies. A new section offers multiple ways of presenting qualitative research findings. The accessible, jargon-free style makes this audiobook ideal for both novice and experienced researchers, emphasizing the role of a theoretical framework in designing a study while providing practical guidance.
Qualitative research reaches beyond the what, where, and when of quantitative analysis to investigate the why and how behind human behavior and the reasons that govern such behavior, but this presents a number of significant challenges. This guide is an invaluable reference for students and practitioners alike, providing the deep understanding that this sometimes difficult area of research requires to produce accurate results.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Story
In Teaching to Transgress, Bell Hooks - writer, teacher, and insurgent black intellectual - writes about a new kind of education, education as the practice of freedom. Teaching students to "transgress" against racial, sexual, and class boundaries in order to achieve the gift of freedom is, for Hooks, the teacher's most important goal. Bell Hooks speakes to the heart of education today: how can we rethink teaching practices in the age of multiculturalism? What do we do about teachers who do not want to teach, and students who do not want to learn? How should we deal with racism and sexism in the classroom? Full of passion and politics, Teaching to Transgress combines a practical knowledge of the classroom with a deeply felt connection to the world of emotions and feelings. This is the rare book about teachers and students that dares to raise questions about eros and rage, grief and reconciliation, and the future of teaching itself.

With growing academic responsibilities, family commitments, and inboxes, scholars are struggling to fulfill their writing goals. A finished book - or even steady journal articles - may seem like an impossible dream. But, as Joli Jensen proves, it really is possible to write happily and productively in academe. Jensen begins by busting the myth that universities are supportive writing environments. She points out that academia, an arena dedicated to scholarship, offers pressures that actually prevent scholarly writing.

Education can be transformed if we eradicate our fixation on big data like standardized test scores as the supreme measure of equity and learning. Instead of the focus being on “fixing” and “filling” academic gaps, we must envision and rebuild the system from the student up—with classrooms, schools and systems built around students’ brilliance, cultural wealth, and intellectual potential. Street data reminds us that what is measurable is not the same as what is valuable and that data can be humanizing, liberatory and healing.

Please make more academic books into audiobooks!
I'm thankful to the writers and publishers for making this an audiobook. As a researcher with a long commute and very little spare time, I've long looked for books in my research area to listen to. There's nothing. I hope the publishers of both academic books and journals learn there is a market for audio versions of their content. Yes, nothing beats a deep dive reading of the content. Yes, reading is necessary when using others' research in my own. But I imagine how much broader of a knowledge base I could have if I were listening to research a few hours per day on my drive. Thank you for taking the first step towards bringing more academic works to this format and please understand there is a market for it.

An excellent research textbook
I have begun my investigation in to research, and I found this book completely comprehensive and thoroughly appropriate. If you are looking for an introduction to researh, you might finding it more than you need, but it was exactly what I was looking for and I bought the physical copy because I found it so valuable.

Hard to understand
The narrator was perfect, the language was easy to understand, yet I had a hard time understanding all the terms. I think I will have to listen one more time with a translator in hand.

Listen at 2.0x
This book is required read for my Qualitative Research class. I am pleased that it is in both audio and text format. Having both makes the process more enjoyable.
The narrator does a fine job, but I gradually raised the speed to 2.0x, pausing when I need to make notes or highlights.
The content of the book is somewhat elementary, but for those who want an introduction to Qualitative Research, it provides an excellent framework.
