“The text is written in an engaging, conversational tone and presents powerful stories that will connect with students and others interested in empowering under-represented groups (focused on adolescents/youth) through community based research.”
“This text is a rich repository, covers wide variety of oppressed research participants and a must read for emerging and valuable sub-field of humanizing research within qualitative research paradigm.”
“I find it to be an overall excellent addition to the conversation on humanizing qualitative research and in general on the conversation on Critical Qualitative Research and its possible directions for development.”
This book has helped me to introduce the subject of colonization and how research has been used to classify and denigrate non-white peoples and non-Western cultures.
Humanizing Research is an excellent text for researchers at any level (undergraduate and graduate students, as well as emerging scholars and community researchers). I found the book to be accessible to students who may be engaging in social science and qualitative research for the first time. The reflection questions at the end of each chapter are also ideal for class discussions and individual reflection writing assignments.
The chapters are great individually, but not all of them applied to all students in this particular class.
Interesting focus, too specilized for the majority of students, more used as background literature for the teachers
An imortant text in understanding different approaches to undertaking qualitative research
I should recommend this text for those working in public and not-for-profit contexts
