A delicate balancing act that blends the precision of numbers with the depth of narratives, research advising for mixed methods research demands a comprehensive understanding of both quantitative and qualitative methodological frameworks, data collection techniques, and integration strategies. Research advisers serve as navigators in the student’s research journey fostering their methodological expertise, critical thinking skills, ethical rigor, and effective communication prowess; helping research advisees translate diverse data into coherent insights. Transforming hurdles into opportunities for deeper inquiry and innovation, how can one become a research adviser for mixed methods research that cultivate students who can bridge paradigms, craft insightful analyses, and contribute significantly to the evolving landscape of knowledge?

Honing the research capabilities of every research adviser and advisee through skills development, the Asian Society of Teachers for Research Inc. invites you to the International Webinar on Research Advising for Mixed Methods Research on April 24-26, 2025 (1:00-5:00 pm, Philippine Standard Time) via ZOOM Teleconferencing with our Resource Speaker, Dr. Imee C.
