Perfect for researchers who to have a strong quantitative research background as well as qualitative research expertise, the convergent parallel mixed methods design collects the quantitative and qualitative data concurrently, analyzes the two components separately, and interprets the results simultaneously. With a growing attention to emergent research methodologies such as the mixed methods design, how can one employ the strength of both qualitative and quantitative research designs, specifically the convergent parallel kind?

The Asian Society of Teachers for Research Inc holds the third international webinar under the Mixed Methods Design Webinar Series*, the International Webinar on Convergent Parallel Mixed Methods Design on October 15-16, 2021 (9:00 am-5:00 pm) via ZOOM Teleconferencing with our Resource Speakers, Dr. Genaro V. Japos of the Philippine Association of Institutions for Research, Inc., Dr. Alexander S. Acosta of the Philippine School Doha and Dr. Imee C. Acosta of the Virginia Commonwealth University Qatar.

*This Webinar is a sequel to the International Webinar on Mixed Methods Sequential Explanatory Design last November 27-28, 2020 and the International Webinar on Exploratory Sequential Mixed Methods Design on June 25-28, 2021 via ZOOM Teleconferencing.

OBJECTIVES OF THE TRAINING-WORKSHOP:
