2018 five day methodology and symposium
in
hermeneutic phenomenology
Monday 23rd
to
Friday 27th April 2018
(4 days methodology course and 1 day symposium)
At Robert Gordon University, Aberdeen, Scotland.
We are delighted to invite you to this joint venture between the University of Central Lancashire and Robert Gordon University. We hope that you
can join us and take part in a hermeneutic phenomenology methodology course.
The course is aimed at postgraduate research students, researchers and academics working within health and social care areas who are new/novices in this theoretical and methodological
approach.
During the course, participants will receive an introduction to, and beginning experience in, designing hermeneutic phenomenology studies, collecting and analysing data, and reporting themes, qualities
and patterns.
Learning outcomes for this course:
• Appreciation of the background into the philosophical underpinnings of hermeneutic phenomenology
• Gain insights into key philosophical notions described by key philosophers (Heidegger, Gadamer, etc.) and how these can be applied within health
and social care research
• How to design and conduct hermeneutic phenomenology research
• How to collect data for hermeneutic phenomenology
(e.g. interviews)
• How to analyse, interpret, and report data (theses/dissertations and publications) in a way that is congruent with this methodology
The sessions will run from 9.30am-4.30pm each day and will involve presentations and small and large group activities (and feedback sessions). In order to encourage participants to share and discuss
their ideas, delegates will have an opportunity to present their research ideas or early insights for informal peer feedback.
The first four days (Monday to Thursday) will focus on ‘how to do’ a hermeneutic phenomenological study. On Friday 27th April a symposium will be held whereby
