This workshop will orient the researchers to explore their own eyes to understand Indian society in the context of locale and indigenous veracity.

Training

Session 1: Understanding qualitative research and Specificities of Indian society

Session 2: Preparing the researcher for qualitative research and introducing different methods

Session 3: Selecting the field: deconstructing the debate of own society vs. others societies

Session 4: Relating with field: blurring the boundaries of outsider and insider

Session 5: Field research: selection of respondents; family tree and biographical notes of respondents; retrieving the memories; semi structured and un-structured interviews (Baat-se-baat methodology); focused group discussions (FGDs) to validate the facts and fill in the incomplete stories; field diary, notes and queries of observations; capturing the silence, murmuring, half sentences

Session 6: Data analysis: transcription; reading the field notes; inclusion of left out resources (proverbs, folk stories and songs); content analysis and discourse analysis; understanding the casteorality

Session 7: Visual representation of qualitative data

Session 8: How to write social stories

Course Contribution: Rs 3,000/- (three thousand) per participant for kit bag, course material, lunch and refreshment. The participants will have to make their own arrangements for accommodation.
