This paper is designed as a teaching tool to assist in choosing the most appropriate qualitative research methodology. Its key aim in providing broad outlines is to distinguish difference between approaches. Assumptions of each methodology are articulated along with the mood of the approach. Examples of interview questions, data and analysis are given to ‘show’. References are offered, including links to these.
