methods. Compare their relative advantages and disadvantages. As a researcher, which data collection method do
you prefer? Why? Is one method over the other more appropriate for the topic? Why? If you were to design a new
study on this topic, what would you do differently? What other questions would you have asked? Did the
respondent provide any feedback to you on the study?
In your reflections, discuss how you felt about process of collecting data, from respondent recruitment to
conducting each interview to saying good-bye. Were there any moments that suggested to you that either interview
(i.e. structured or semi-structured) was going well or not well? Why was it going well or not well? How could
you tell? Would you do things differently if you had to do another interview? What did you like/dislike about
conducting the survey? What did you like/dislike about conducting the qualitative interview? Did you face any
