1 Research Design Goethe University Frankfurt Mondays, 10:00 12:00 am Room: Seminarpavillon Westend SP 1.01 Markus Siewert, M.A. Office: PEG 3.G 114 Office hour: Mondays 1:00 2:00 pm Course Outline This seminar gives an introduction into the main aspects of research designs in the social sciences. (1) After discussing the importance of a well-elaborate research design for social science research, different phases of the research process are discussed, such as the discovery of a research question; the formation of concepts; the formulation of arguments; case selection; operationalization; and how to arrive at conclusions from a study. (2) Following this, different forms of research designs are presented, e.g. single-case study designs; comparative designs; historically oriented studies; within-case analyses; and the design of more quantitative social research. (3) A final part will look at the (perceived) differences between qualitative and quantitative research traditions and will evaluate whether these are two different research approaches or just two variants of the same principles. This seminar is not a classical methods course in which single data collection or data analysis methods are presented (such a course will be offered again in the summer term 2015). It rather introduces to standards of good research practices and provides a forum for the discussion of existing guidelines within the scholarly community. The seminar is embedded in a qualitativeempirical, case-oriented research and methodological tradition, but also offers interesting viewpoints for those students who prefer to work in a different manner. In sum, this course emanates from a comprehensive understanding of methodology and research design and tries to enable its participants to be able to choose from a broad range of different approaches and strategies. The seminar is conceived as a basis for a successful reception of empirical research, both in political science and sociology. It is therefore especially recommended for those students who are at the beginning of their M.A. studies. However, it should also prepare for designing of a M.A. theses. Furthermore, it introduces to methodology as a social science sub-discipline and discusses its current fractures and cleavages. Modules: HM, SOZ-MA-1, PW09-MA-2, PW-MA-1, IS-MA-1; SOZ-MA-6; PW-BA-SP Course Requirements: No prior knowledge is needed to follow the course. However, a seminar is essentially based on the regular attendance and dedicated involvement in classroom discussions of its participants. If you miss 20% of classes during the semester you cannot receive either a Teilnahmeschein or a Leistungsschein ( Three Strikes and You Are Out ). The course language will be English, as will all the literature. While sufficient language skills are required to follow the course, it has no effect on the grading. 1
2 How to Get a Schein: For a Leistungsschein (graded) are required: (1) attendance in 80% of the sessions during the semester, (2) two short essays (each approx characters) a. mid-term paper (deadline 23. Dec. 2014): discussion of a peer-reviewed journal article regarding its research design. b. end-term paper (deadline 31. Mar. 3014): in-depth discussion of one variant of research design or comparison of different designs. (3) a written short exam (Kurzklausur) at the end of the semester. The two essays and the written exam count equally towards the grade. For a non-graded certificate of participation (Teilnahmeschein) are required: (1) attendance in 80% of the sessions during the semester, and (2) a written short exam (Kurzklausur) (passed or failed). Course Materials All course materials (readings, writing assignments, and presentations), will be provided via the homepage of the chair for Qualitative Empirical Social Sciences. Mandatory readings are marked with a ** in the syllabus below; without asterisks are further readings which are voluntary. If you want to purchase one or two books for this course, the following are recommended: (1) Della Porta, Donatella and Michael Keating (eds.) (2008), Approaches and Methodologies in the Social Sciences. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. (2) Gerring, John (2012). Social Science Methodology. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. (3) Goertz, Gary and James Mahoney (2012). A Tale of Two Cultures: Qualitative and Quantitative Research in the Social Sciences. Princeton: Princeton University Press. Plagiarism Following the basic rules of academic (and human) behavior, all your works have to be the product your own creativity and energy. Google-ing the works of other people does not count as such! The written assignments have to follow the rules of academic writing, e.g. citing other works. Please, hand-in the following signed statement with your written works: Erklärung über die selbstständige Erstellung einer wissenschaftlichen Arbeit Hiermit erkläre ich,, geboren am, gegenüber dem Institut für Politikwissenschaft der J.
