This webinar will showcase the newly published book by the authors, Collaborative Qualitative Research (Guilford Press, 2023) with particular attention to discussing collaboration within particular qualitative traditions—cross-cultural research, duoethnography, participatory action research, arts-based collaborations, and others. The authors are keenly interested in how researchers learn to build research teams, formulate research questions, gather and analyze data, assess how collaborations are working, and related ethical questions. The authors will provide samples of their within-chapter “Pedagogical Pathways” sections designed to provide those teaching qualitative reseach methods courses with practice exercises for their students and opportunities for reflection by all researchers.
