In this course, we will first examine the philosophical foundations of qualitative research methodology. Then we will go through qualitative research designs in order and see which one is used for which purposes. Then we will start to prepare a research proposal that we have created with qualitative methodology within the scope of a communication study. While preparing the research proposal, we will first see how to conduct a more qualified literature review. In this process, we will see how to use Bibliometrix, VOSviewer and ZOTERO tools. Then we will see how to conduct a literature review using MAXQDA. Then we will finalize the research proposal into a final report. In the next stage, we will prepare the necessary files for the ethics committee report together with our research proposal and apply to the ethics committee. After the ethics committee approval, we will start our field research. We will analyze the data we collect from the field on MAXQDA. After the data analysis, we will prepare the final report with the findings we have obtained. In the final step, we will transform it into an article through the format of an academic journal we will determine and BAMM! We will have a great publication
