QualLab Lunches provide an excellent forum for world-renowned qualitative researchers to discuss social justice, equity, and innovation-related theories, methodologies, and methods over the duration of a lunch hour. Scroll down to register or to find links to past lunches with award-winning faculty on important qualitative concepts.
Many use these open access videos in classes, for their own teaching and learning, and as a way to
“think with” leading scholars of qualitative inquiry. WELCOME!
