Select one of the following qualitative traditions; ethnography, phenomenology, biography, grounded theory, or case study. From this theoretical perspective, describe how you would design a qualitative study of the situation described in the following scenario: Scenario: A somewhat traditional University is implementing changes in course delivery. Some courses are now being delivered in an online format. The Administration is interested in understanding the impact that this change. As a research consultant, you have been asked to examine this transition from the more "traditional" class delivery to the "online" format. Students in the more "traditional" classes have experienced a more or less seat-of-the-pants approach, which is characterized by a flexible curriculum sequence, an evolving structure, little reliance on technology, improvisational classroom activities, and modification of instructional materials. The "online" format covers exactly the same topics and concepts, but is constructed and designed with a predetermined structure and sequence, relatively little opportunity for modification by the instructor, and a significant reliance upon technology to deliver the course. Write a 2 to 3 page paper describing your proposed study of this situation from your chosen qualitative theoretical perspective.
