What are the similarities and differences between qualitative and quantitative research? Qualitative research is deals with collecting descriptive information that cannot be definitely measured on an exact scale, often things that are observed. Examples would be emotions or feelings, attitudes, behavior, etc. It is a research method for exploring issues and topics in an attempt to understand them better and obtain answers and in some cases find similarities. Qualitative research is used in business research, market research and even scientific research.

In my General Literature class, one of the activities in our studies is a discussion of different novels, articles, essays, or any other type of writing. For the most part, notable authors that are figures of authority composed these writings that we discuss. During our discussions, we sometimes question the validity of the writings. We expose flaws of the writing and stronger opinions and creative ideas are formed, often surpassing that of the writing itself that was made by the notable author. For example, through the questioning and debating, we we able to surpass the limitations of Freire's "Banking Method" and make conclusions beyond what is found in just reading a piece of writing from a prominent author.
For example, should judges embrace “mind reading” and issue orders based on mere fMRIs? Intentionally crude and tendentious, this sentence was meant to demonstrate that focusing too narrowly on such cases can impoverish our understanding of how science can interact with law.

Making new law or applying existing law both require some understanding of the “facts”—either the factual contours of a problem to be solved or the factual particularities necessary to apply general legal principles to a specific case. But as legal scholars have noted, facts can be specific or general (e.g., Faigman, 2008).

You must provide evidence derived from your research to support all statements in your essay – do not use sweeping statements.
Jacqueline Paul, Adam Neumann, Megan Fritchman, Bradley Deason, Henry Martin, Christopher Lampe Eng-W132 Professor Ventura October 31, 2013 Creative Collection of Scholarly Written Disciplines Scholarly articles are written in a certain style and manner, with a specific topic as the key to the entire written article. The style and manner of a scholarly article is very structured and to the point containing headings to show progression throughout the article, for example an abstract and a bibliography to cite the source of the factual information exhibited throughout the article. Not only are heading keys to scholarly articles but charts and graphs which display statistical information are also key factors of scholarly articles as well.
