Vocabulary:
Triangulation (p314) A mixed method design that simultaneously implements both quantitative and qualitative methods, collecting and analyzing data concurrently.
Triangulation designs let a researcher develop a thorough understanding of a phenomena. By using both quantitative and qualitative findings, a researcher can compare them to each other to get closer to a truth.
Reflection:
I learned that the mixed method design is a very powerful design, giving researchers a chance to take advantage of both the strength of numbers from the quantitative side and the strength of insight from the qualitative side.
