Content
This teaching unit aims to deepen students' knowledge of qualitative research.
More specifically, it focuses on one of the qualitative approaches: the case study approach.
  • Specificities of the case study as a qualitative research approach
  • Data collection methods: triangulation
  • Data analysis: principles of saturation and reduction
  • Single case and multiple case study design
Teaching methods
The course is structured like a seminar:
  • participatory pedagogical approach;
  • reflective and iterative approach: developing methodological skills is an iterative and reflective process that unfolds throughout the course and beyond;
  • students are active agents in their own learning: by initiating conversations, sharing additional readings, suggesting learning structures or modalities, and providing constructive feedback that would enhance their own learning and the collective learning of the group.
Course sessions alternate between lectures (with readings and article discussions) and periods of activities/exercises/discussions organized in a way that enables students to engage with and take ownership of the concepts and tools presented in the course.
Evaluation methods
  • The summative assessment will consist of a written assignment. Each student is required to create a portfolio in which they are invited to highlight their acquired knowledge and skills, as specified in the learning objectives. This portfolio is an organized set of evidence that demonstrates the attainment of a level of development of one or more competencies.
  • The conditions for the summative assessment are specified on Moodle and from the first class by the instructor.
  • Student progress will be formatively assessed through in-class exercises, assignments, and methodological reflections.
  • The evaluation methods are identical in the first and second exam session.
  • The use of generative Artificial Intelligence tools (e.g., Chat GPT, etc.) is forbidden for all productions (e.g., assignments, documents to be completed, portfolio, etc.) required of students as part of this course.
