SUMMARY:Introduction to Constructivist Grounded Theory
DESCRIPTION:This course introduces participants to constructivist grounded
  theory (CGT). Grounded theory (GT) methods consist of flexible guideline
 s to fit particular research problems\, not to apply mechanically. With t
 hese guidelines\, you expedite and systematize data collection and analys
 is. GT methods can assist researchers in making their work more analytic\
 , precise\, and compelling.\n\nIn this course\, following an exploration 
 of the history and development of GT\, we examine GT basic guidelines and
  major strategies\, including initial line-by-line and focused coding\, t
 he use of gerunds\, memoing\, diagramming\, theoretical sampling\, and ca
 tegorizing. Throughout the sessions\, there is an emphasis on CGT’s epist
 emological foundation and resultant adaptations to the research process\,
  including regarding the literature review\, researcher positionality/ies
  and reflexivity\, and participant involvement.\n\nThe course will includ
 e a number of hands-on exercises to exemplify\, and give participants an 
 opportunity to practice\, the strategies being discussed. For the coding 
 exercise\, you may bring and use some of your own qualitative data\, or i
 f you do not have data yet\, some will be supplied. Clear guidelines and 
 support are provided to course participants with regard to all aspects of
  CGT.\n\nThe sessions will utilize CGT readings and resources from Kathy 
 Charmaz\, Robert Thornberg\, Adele Clarke\, and myself\, and will draw on
  the extensive scholarship of Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss. A pack of
