Areas of Learning, about inquiry plan, or reflecting on your data collection and inquiry = triangulate
Triangulate: as your write mix together (steps of analysis)
- Your experience & stories about learning the topic – your experience and what you learnt about the topic.
- Theory on learning – so you can talk about your learning to develop your thoughts and practice in this area. (Module One theory will underpin this) – actually how you learnt it, looking back now and knowing the learning theory of Module One
- The theory (publications about the topic: contextualises your experience and thoughts. (other people - people who have been published- experiences and stories) – what other people have learnt about the topic and how what you have learnt sits within this.

I am confused. If we are not to quote sources and prove facts within the experiential essay, how then and why do we use research to enhance our writings?
ReplyDeleteHi Ken, I think the idea is that it is already accepted that we have the experience that we have already. so no need to prove it. I believe there is space to discuss those theorists who have similar or share our ideas/philosophies and also to look at those who come from a different school of thought. This can provoke new trains of thought "to capture different dimensions of the same phenomenon" https://www.researchgate.net/post/What_is_triangulation_of_data_in_qualitative_research_
ReplyDeleteThis is my opinion, hopefully some others will engage because it is important throughout the M.A and something I continuously struggle with and have to remind myself of.
