  3. Identify the qualitative research method you believe works well to investigate this research problem.
  4. Present the review of the literature, using headings as appropriate to delineate key sections.

  • Identify and evaluate the literature on the software program you will use to analyze your qualitative data.
  • Discuss validity threats in your chosen qualitative design.
  • Analyze the literature on ethics in the researcher-participant relationship in qualitative design.

Conclude your Signature Assignment with a summary that synthesizes the research and points to gaps in the literature and to directions that further research might take.

Length: 12-15 pages
