Facilitating Data Collection
|
In preparing for data collection all youth researchers were trained in various forms of research methods including:
● Life history: learning the life story of individuals
● Mapping: documenting data as visuals
● Ethnography: closely observing the details within our environment and its occupants
● Interviews: identifying barriers and supports throughout a participant's life
● Focus groups: We ran mock focus groups with our protocol to prepare for our roles (notetaker, coder, or co-facilitator)
**We also received CIBR CITI certification which included a code of ethics and instruction training for conducting proper research
