Techniques: Mapping

Mapping

Techniques: Interviews

Strengths Embraces the subjectivity of the researcher as an important source of contextualizing knowledge Studies the human experience on a firsthand basis Reveals the nuances of everyday practices Situates the researcher and research subjects as an integral part of guiding and experiencing the research process Allows the research design to evolve according to what is important to the research subject

Weaknesses Can be limiting without critical reflexivity Can perpetuate unequal power relations Focusing on observation and conversation can lead us to forget to analyze what is unseen and left unsaid Can lead to overgeneralization Ethical considerations
