Dear students,
Please assign yourself to one or more of the philosophical groups today (28/04) so that I can assign you to working groups tomorrow.
Based on your assigned group, then complete the reading (positivist & interpretivists = Schwartz-Shea, critical realists = Morgan) and brainstorm with your other group memebers in the Etherpad. If you are interested in another philosophy that you weren't assigned, I recommend reading or keeping the other text for later.
Finally, upload your generated texts to the discussion board and ask a question/comment/suggest something on the other groups' work.
Those of you attending the class in-person next week, please prepare notes on the readings and discussion points on the three philosophies to discuss.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Take care,
Jess
P.S. the slides from today's class are online and I highly recommend looking at them (again) because they outline the essential component for writing the final research proposal. We'll discuss it more next week (or another week, for those of you who won't be there) and I'll upload the concrete task description to Moodle.
