Which one further checklist will address Would fit the purpose of this research however, there is still an element missing, of Upon reflection of the checklist proposed by Creswell and Clarke (2011), the SE design Which the results can support and/or enrich the initial qualitative findings.

Research is usually the more dominant under this design also providing a four step The Continuation form is included in theĬreswell and Clarke (2011) continue to mention that the qualitative component of the ‘Continuation Interview’ for this project, the methodology was reviewed in order to establish “ a clear focus for the study and a defined methodology”.

Will conduct a quantitative phase to confirm the findings of the first phase. Qualitative data collection procedure and then, building upon the findings of this phase, The Sequential-Įxploratory (SE) design, as described by Creswell and Clark (2011), first begins with a Other researchers have mentioned how thisĭesign is particularly useful for initial research projects as it uncovers a wealth ofĪvenues that could be ‘explored’ in further studies (Singh, 2007). Methods are best suited for further studies. To gain insight into the working dynamics under observation and to determine what Usually adopted in studies for the purpose of understanding of particular situations.Īlthough the sample sizes tend to be slightly smaller, the focus of this methodology is According to Saunders-Lewis and Thornhill (2007), an exploratory research design is
