Project Summary: Provide a 2 paragraph response that includes an answer to the question "To what extent is mixed methods research simply taking half a quantitative plan and half of a qualitative plan and putting them together?" and an articulation of the challenges to using a mixed methods strategy of inquiry. Provide 2 paragraphs with your strategies for presenting your research findings to your three selected audiences. Justify why those strategies would be most effective for those audiences. Review Chapter 10 in the course text, Research Design and the `Mixed Methods: Examples` media segment. Based on this information, how would you respond to someone who asks you, `To what extent is mixed methods research simply taking half a quantitative plan and half of a qualitative plan and putting them together?` Review the article `On Becoming a Pragmatic Researcher: The Importance of Combining Quantitative and Qualitative Research Methodologies` in the Learning Resources. Explore what you believe is or are the biggest challenges for a researcher who wants to use a mixed methods strategy of inquiry. Determine which kinds of research questions would be served by a mixed methods strategy of inquiry and explain why. Indicate why you believe that more researchers are using a mixed methods strategy of inquiry. Describe the extent to which a mixed methods strategy of inquiry is used in your discipline. For your focus in this Discussion, choose one of the abbreviated research plans that you have drafted. Identify the potential audiences for the research proposed in the plan. Select three potential audiences to whom you could potentially present your research findings. Suggest strategies for presenting your findings to these three audiences in a way that makes the most sense to the audience.
