Introduction
Digital technologies have become essential for empirical research across many disciplines. This course deals with concrete ways of using digital technology for qualitative data collection. It is aimed at scholars who seek to apply qualitative online data collection methods in their studies.
Online research methods are essentially facilitators of ‘traditional’ methods, modified for use in online contexts, such as email, chat rooms, web pages, various forms of instant messaging, and other internet applications.
The course starts by introducing basic characteristics of qualitative online research methods and their temporal structure. It provides an overview of advantages and disadvantages of online research methods in general.
We continue by examining different forms of online qualitative data collection, in particular online focus groups, online interviews and virtual ethnography, addressing methodological as well as practical considerations.
Finally, we look at how to combine various online data collection methods, and tackle some ethical research issues.
