About this ebook
Scientific Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Communications - Methods and Research Logic, grade: A-, Ottawa University (Criminology), course: Qualitative Research Methods, language: English, abstract: Although knowledge is created and disseminated every day; there is relatively little consideration given to how that knowledge exists and how it was created in the first place. This essay explores how knowledge is created through research as logic of enquiry, mainly focusing on the differences between method and methodology, the debate between qualitative and quantitative research, and ultimately, the conclusion that research must be a synthesis of all relevant competing methodologies in a mixed methods approach. By utilizing such a holistic strategy, researchers are able to uncover their problem more accurately and effectively.
