As you draft your initial Discussion post, consider the following:

  • What defines a good qualitative research question?
  • What do you look for in content, in terminology, and in alignment with the research problem?

Find and briefly summarize (1–2 paragraphs) a qualitative research article to use as an example of how the researcher presented either a good qualitative research question or a poorly formed research question.
