A Second Start

Hearts can heal … with a little help Life’s challenging enough for widower Hall Quick right now. He’s sure not thinking about love. He has four children -- moody teenager Dan, meddling Molly and Lizzie, and into-everything toddler Bobby – all of them still reeling from their mother’s unexpected death. A ranch that needs more hours than he has to give. A household that passed wrack and ruin a while back. All he wants from the new schoolteacher is a passable report on his kids so he doesn’t have another problem to deal with. At least that what he thinks he wants from Kenzie Smith. The Wyoming Marriage Association has other ideas. A little nudge here, a little accidental meeting there and who knows what can happen . . . maybe even a family.

This book will help readers understand the practice of qualitative research--whether they want to do it, teach it, or just learn about it. All the major research phases are encompassed (startup, design, data collection, analysis, and composing), including newly emerging trends. Numerous easy-to-read vignettes show how other scholars have successfully implemented specific procedures. Equally distinctive, the book presents qualitative research as an adaptive craft. The array of choices among different procedures and methods enables readers to customize their own studies and to accommodate different worldviews and genres. New to This Edition: *Stronger discussion of different worldviews (e.g., constructivism, postpositivism, and pragmatism) and how they relate to different methodological choices. *Clearer emphasis on doing a generalized qualitative study, while acknowledging 12 specialized genres (e.g., action-based research, arts-based research, autoethnography, grounded theory, phenomenology, and others). *Expanded discussions of different kinds of qualitative study samples and of mixed methods. *New ideas on how to avoid getting stalled when analyzing qualitative data. *Consideration of an additional way of concluding a qualitative study: by taking action. Pedagogical Features *Chapters start with an abstract and end with a suggested exercise. *Key terms and concepts appear in boldface throughout the text and are listed in end-of-chapter recaps as well as in the book?s glossary. *Sections within each chapter start with a preview box: ?What you should learn from this section." *An appendix presents a semester- or yearlong field-based project.
