The Centre for Qualitative Research

is pleased to announce
Three New Masterclasses for 2007:
June 2007
Peter Willis & Sally Borbasi, New and Novel Methods for Transformative
Learning: evocative portrayal in research and teaching
One of the great challenges to practice-relevant educators is how to
promote a kind of learning that draws on the personal and professional
imagination in rich and useful ways. This masterclass will pursue two
resources for this endeavour: the kind of research that communicates its
findings in evocatively expressive ways, and the pedagogic potential of
story-telling based in one's own and other's lives.

Julianne Cheek, Surviving in the Research Marketplace
The workshop will explore the notion of a research marketplace and the role
of grants, papers and networks in that marketplace. Participants will
explore how to navigate such an enterprise-driven and 'evidence-based'
environment, and how to meet competing demands and identities; such as
qualitative researcher, employee, scholar, citizen.

Phil Carspecken, An Introduction to Critical Qualitative Research
Today there are two broadly defined perspectives from which critical
qualitative research draws: the tradition of critical theory, and
poststructuralism. Critical qualitative research is distinguished from
other genres of inquiry through its specific use of social theory in
framing research questions, analyzing data and meeting validity criteria.
