Qualitative Research Resource of the Week

MyQualitativeTiddlyWiki: Cynthia Russell, a professor at The University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Nursing based in Memphis, Tennessee, USA, has created "a reusable non-linear personal web notebook about all things qualitative." This innovative place contains resources in the areas of basic qualitative research definitions which include examples and links to online sites, teaching qualitatively suggestions and activities to use in classes, interactive games that make learning qualitative research fun, as well as a wealth on links to other online sites. Dr. Russell is always looking for suggestions to improve and expand her wiki so please help her to develop this creative, interactive site!
