Dr. Markette, if I had not watched your video on "How to align your qualitative case study I | purpose, problem, and research questions," then I would not have faired so well in class. The way you executed these techniques should be mandatory for all students.

[@DrMarkette]

Thanks for your kind words. More to come...stay tuned!

[@rodgerbroome]

It is vital to note that "lived experience" does not mean the "life experience." The second is an idiom for lessons learned. A lived experience means the subjective "what it is like to experience" from the first-person perspective. "What is it like to fall in love" is a phenomenological question. What someone learned from being in love is not.

[@DrMarkette]

Thank you, Dr. Broome, always my "go to" resource for all things descriptive phenomenological!

[@my-therapist]

This totally makes sense!

[@myriamflorez5861]

Thank you! Dr. Markette. It was very helpful and informative

[@DrMarkette]

Alignment is key to any study. Which design will you be utilizing in your study?

[@rosenaveja4845]

Dr. Markette...You are the best. Also, the feasibility video had me laughing and the plus side to that is now I understand feasibility. Who Knew?

[@DrMarkette]

Yes, we were laughing as we were making it. So glad it helped!
