Coding assignment:
Using the instructions and data provided in the Open-Ended Coding Exercise spreadsheet (.xlsx) create a coding scheme and summary table of your results. Post your responses to this discussion. Even if you finish early please wait until at least Wednesday to post your response. We want to give everyone a chance to create their own coding scheme without any outside influence.
Discussion post: (one or two paragraphs)
Think of a way that your research question (or a similar question) could be answered using qualitative research. What type of qualitative research could be used and how would it be conducted? What would be the strengths and weaknesses of this design compared to quantitative methods?
