Contrast of Study Designs
To differentiate between research designs and determine which design is the best fit for the problem statement, purpose statement, and research questions, it is helpful to explore a minimal framework of several designs. Throughout this course, you will explore several designs for your potential dissertation research study. In this assignment, you will explore the possibility of conducting your proposed dissertation research study using a phenomenology design, and you will contrast several designs considering your proposed study.
