Gatekeepers - Methods of doing actions
Paradigm -> research sense
- Approach to how to see the world
- Approach to knowledge
- Approach to methods
Review words in glossary
Ontology - what we think reality is
(Think of the phrase: Are you a tourist?)
Trees VS Management
Naive Realist - Yes, there are trees, good management and tourists
Critical Realist - Argue what a tourist is: home is 6km away? 60km? 600km?
Looking at different notions of reality - if what others say exists, and the general public believes it, is it true?
- Ghosts at Malaysian Campus
- Campus was a battleground located near the Thai border.
Epistemology
- How we get to know 'stuff'
- summary device of objective reality
- argument of what is going on
View of reality and how we know things
Properties of the major paradigms
Powerpoints shades of interpretation?
Why are paradigms important?
--> Research Masteries
Note that business has external markers for honours project - inquire of IT the same
Positivist --> Naive Realists
- Have many simulations to create "the world"
- Have a view that they are independent of what they are studying and what they have mistakenly done is value-free
- e.g. Nuclear Bomb --> It's not value free, this point can be argued
- "We just create, what people do is not our responsibility"
Sometimes, we may be given a false reality
E.g. Book in anthropology
--> Don't believe everything you hear
Interpretation of reality, people believing that research is done in a controlled environment
e.g. Previous study
--> Shocking people
View that the subjects were not being harmed because experiment was controlled
Post-Positivist - 'modified' version of positivism
Performance VS 'Not so good performance'
Arguing employment figures - don't always trust the data
e.g. A town has a set amount of people, some of these people may have an income through crime, such as theft, drug dealing; although that is how they make an income, that is not a subject a person would list as employment, rather they see themselves as unemployed, thus data incorrect.
Interpretative, constructed reality.
Missed the rest of the lecture for a meeting.
