Jargon Buster - Qualitative

💡 RECAP Jargon Buster!

Ever heard the word “Qualitative” and thought… 🤔 what does that even mean?

📖 Simply put, qualitative research is about stories, feelings, and experiences - not just numbers.

❓ It helps us understand the why and how behind people’s thoughts and actions.

✨ Example:

👩‍🏫 A teacher asking children what they enjoy about reading.

👨‍👩‍👧 Parents sharing how they felt when their child started school.

Here at RECAP we’re breaking down research terms so parents and families can access and use research too - because evidence shouldn’t be locked away in academic jargon!
