The beginner part of the program of this course aims to structure a conceptual and language base to standardize basic knowledge.
Learning outcomes

The course intends to present an advanced study of the knowledge and skills to be developed in the field of qualitative research, applied to the nursing / obstetric context, both as a research methodology for cognitive purposes and as a peculiar teaching-learning strategy.

Moreover, the course aims to deepen the various qualitative research methodologies and to gain a (small) qualitative research experience.

the course will be developed through exercises and group work that the students will conduct together during the lessons in the classroom.
To this end, the attending students will participate in different group exercises that will constitute a moment of guided learning.
Course contents

The following course aims to develop advanced knowledge and skills in the field of qualitative research applied to the nursing-obstetric field.
During the course, insights will be provided on the methodology used in conducting qualitative research, and through the analysis of scientific articles and the execution of group work, the following aspects will be addressed:
- from the identification of the gap in the literature, to the structuring of the research question
- definition of the objective
- main possible methodologies: similarities and differences
- research design
- data collection procedure
- data analysis and reporting structure

The contents listed above will be addressed in particular through an exploration of the interpretative phenomenological qualitative research methodology, following the indications of Smith and colleagues (Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis: Theory, Method and Research. Jonathan A. Smith, Paul Flowers and Michael Larkin, Sage, 2009)
