RT Book T1 Participatory action research T2 Qualitative research methods JF Qualitative research methods A1 McIntyre, Alice LA English PP Los Angeles London PB SAGE Publications YR 2008 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1610505557 AB Participatory Action Research introduces a method that is ideal for researchers who are committed to co-developing research programs with people rather than for people. The book provides a history of PAR, its various strands, and the underlying tenets that guide most PAR projects. It then draws on two PAR projects that highlight three integral dimensions of PAR: the meaning of participation; the way action manifests itself in PAR projects; and the strategies for gathering, analyzing, and disseminating information. Here, the reader is exposed to how differently PAR is carried out depending on, for example, the issue under investigation, the site of the PAR project, the project participants, peopleA s access to resources, and other related issues. This resource is an ideal supplement for graduate courses PAR, qualitative research, and various types of action-based research.
