The International Institute for Qualitative Methodology is pleased to
announce that online registration & submission of poster abstracts for
the 8th Thinking Qualitatively Workshop Series (June 23-27, 2008 at
the University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada) is now available.
Thinking Qualitatively 2008 includes a conference keynote address by
Dr. Lynne McKechnie (University of Western Ontario), opportunities for
networking with colleagues from around the world, and an interactive
poster session for participants to receive feedback on
works-in-progress. The complete schedule of workshops, including a
call for poster presentations, is available on our website at
http://www.uofaweb.ualberta.ca/iiqm/thinking.cfm
This interdisciplinary educational series allows participants to
engage with experts in qualitative inquiry and learn about specific
methods, techniques and approaches to qualitative research. The
academic program consists of five days of hands-on workshops on such
topics as qualitative coding and categorization, participatory action
research, discourse analysis, literature reviews, arts-based methods,
poststructuralism in qualitative research, and much more! On Saturday
June 28, TQ2008 participants may also register for a separate NVivo
Software training session.
This week-long event is aimed at participants from all academic
disciplines and for individuals at all stages of their research
career. Individuals conducting research in universities and colleges
and/or professional settings (e.g., libraries; hospitals; government
agencies) are welcome to attend. Some workshops are introductory
sessions, while others will appeal to more experienced researchers. I
hope to see you there!
