A new anthology brings the teaching of qualitative research to life: „Qualitative Forschung lehren – Didaktische Impulse aus der Praxis“ is a valuable resource for lecturers across all disciplines who wish to enrich their courses with practical, tried-and-tested methods. It includes a teaching exercise on how to search for qualitative data sets.
