theme 6: comment

Theme6: 

1.  "you had a point right there at the beginning that "The number of the participants does not define the type of the method. The type of the data that we gather defines the method." i was too obsess about numbers of participants to differentiate case study apart from other quali/quantitative research.but actually your point is to look at whether the information is enough to be a qualitative/quantitative or a case study ! nice reflecting  thank you !.

2. ",you raised an interesting point on whether case study is suitable for testing theory or not. but as you mention that we rather use case study for the area of study that has limited information or  new thing so we can find if there is anything to study about it. i think maybe case study consume alot of time and thats why it doesnt commonly use to test theory and rather use quantitative or qualitative research which is easier to do it ? anyways great reflects. i enjoy reading :) "

3. "i was also confused with the same couple of question like ‘how experiment different from case study’ and ‘is case study is the method?’
but seem like you have clarified them all. and even came up with a clear understandable definition of it. overall it just starts with what information you have in hands. is it good enough ? and then you choose which strategy you are going for. case study ? or other quantitative/qualitative research ."

4. "hi,well you really give me another angle to define "case study" apart from prototype though. since Ilias said that case study is to study of some thing that has limited information or something we don't really understand about it. i think prototype is the opposite. when you start your research like professor HaiBo said. you have idea that is been filter, you know what the problem is, you define problem and then make the prototype to test it. so it is pretty clear for me how these two distinguish. it's interesting to try to understand it like what you curious from the beginning too. nice reflects :)"

" hi,i see that you have a clear understanding of the case study and qualitative study. i also was confused about them at first. i personally think both of them should be in the different level. case study is a research strategy level but qualitative is a method level. you might choose to study about one topic with 'case study' and using the 'qualitative method' anyways nice and precise reflections :) "

6.  "it took me so much time to find a paper with qualitative method because every paper seem to be using quantitative to me. because i didn’t understand that questionnaire can be a mixture if they have an open question. i originally thought all questionnaire consider quantitative.in the paper i read about case study. they also have the same problem like you said. they find it hard to write things down to be a report paper. since case study is very detailed and sometimes it is hard to convert information they get into letters."

7.  "your sentence on "Case study can be a way to start a big study,"
say alot of how it different from our previous theme. as previous theme we always mention what hypothesis is. and how it can be conduct from previous theory. but case study we start without any theory. and pave the way for new theory. like you said 'once you have more knowledge about that specific event. Then you can move on and see how that compare in the bigger picture.' nice reflects :) "http://dm2572lisa.blogspot.se/2015/10/theme-6-reflection-post.html?showComment=1445829288050

8. hi, i also have the same thing on my blog. that i agree with you that quantitative and qualitative study kinda aim to generalized their result. therefore their sample cannot be too small. while for case study even one person is enough for your sample size because they don't need to generalize or prove theory. but they try to find something new. and if that one person can be test to find that new thing then is it enough.

9.  "so you were saying that doing case study is like calling for attention of researches that this new area should investigate more ! very interesting angle . i also think that case study doesn't always need to find new theory but at least case study should provide new findings that will bring some light to other people and pave way for other studies to continue. like the paper i found all they did was observing 3-4 years old kid and technology interaction and they found that kids these days ! their toy were changing and that's it. however they mentioned that there were so little study about this 3-4 years old kid and tech and they think it is important for the study to go on.

10.  hi,i agree that case study can be more subjective compare to quantitative and qualitative study as its aim are different. as you mentioned that case study tend to particular situation therefore it was looking for something new that exist in that particular situation first. and maybe boarder study can be explore later. case study didn't mean to generalize the result in the first place. instead looking for ways to find new theory like you said. case study is pretty interesting.
