Description
Qualitative research plays a crucial role in generating theory. Qualitative research can provide depth and validity, capture human nuance, and describe the state of social affairs. As research assistants on: A Strength-Based Approach to Addressing Racial Challenges Impacting Black Students, we have discovered how science can improve people's lives. This study utilizes focus groups to give people a voice, make them feel heard, and be a part of reform that would benefit them. We have conducted a preliminary analysis of demographic data to give a snapshot of the people behind the science. Finally, we reflect on our experience of being researchers and its importance, to us and society.
