You are hired as a researcher to provide consultation to Westcliff University in helping the institution to better support F1 students who choose to study in the US. Based on interviews with school administrators, you have concluded that WC University is interested in improving student retention and graduation rates. You have also formed the operational theory that student retentions are​ influenced by general and academic adjustment, including financial and living conditions of F1 students. Your team is tasked with conducting a qualitative study, either through one-on-one interviews (at least three students) or a focus group (at least five students). In preparation for your study, you will need to answer the following design questions. In this discussion question, you will “briefly” answer the following questions. NOTE: each main post must identify team members. Each member will answer only to three of the questions in their post. • • Is your research Confirmatory or Exploratory in nature? • • What is the orientation of your research and why? • • Why did you choose a focus group/ direct interview for this study? How did you address some of the main disadvantages of your approach? • • What are some of the questions that you are planning to ask during the meeting(focus group or interview) • • How will you collect and analyze data? • • Will you consider projective research techniques?
