Advance HE Surveys Conference 2018 - Using Q methodology - Isabel Fischer

Q-methodology is a mixed-methods approach that allows to analyse students’ perceptions by gender ethnicity or other factors as well as their intersectionality. In this session participants will jointly conduct a simple Q-methodology survey from inception through to analysis. Participants will also learn how Q-methodology has been used at the business school of the University of Sussex to gauge students’ preferences for study abroad destinations as well as to better understand students’ perceptions of factors that determine degree outcomes. By the end of the session participants should have enough knowledge to conduct their own student or staff survey using Q-methodology.
