    Your Qualitative Research and Evaluation Methods text discusses 12 themes of qualitative inquiry, each of which fits into one of the following three categories:

    Design strategies include the following themes:
    • Naturalistic.
    • Emergent design.
    • Purposeful sampling.

    Data Collection and Fieldwork Strategies

    Data collection and fieldwork strategies include the following themes:
    • Qualitative data.
    • Personal experience and engagement.
    • Empathic neutrality and mindfulness.
    • Dynamic systems.

    Analysis Strategies

    Analysis strategies include the following themes:
    • Unique case orientation.
    • Inductive analysis and creative synthesis.
    • Holistic perspective.
    • Context sensitivity.
    • Voice, perspective, and reflexivity.

    Building Blocks of Qualitative Inquiry

    These 12 themes of qualitative inquiry:
    • Relate to a strategy that provides basic direction.
    • Are vital for understanding the value of qualitative research and qualitative data.
    • Show that a qualitative approach is the most appropriate way to acquire particular types of information.
    These themes might be considered some of the building blocks that can be used to develop strategies for conducting a qualitative inquiry. As building blocks of qualitative inquiry, they become integrated into the qualitative research methodologies.
