In carrying out qualitative studies, the important issue is the quality of data collected, which is dependent on the mode of data collection used. The interview is one of the data collection techniques for qualitative researchers. Distinct from other methods, interviews have unique features that make them superior. As such, the current study explores relevant issues that are linked to interviews, especially aspects that make them central to qualitative data collection. Besides the historical appeal, the discussion covers the advantages a researcher experiences while using interviews to collect data. They require a personal commitment of both the participant and researcher. Significantly, time and resource allocation are also required. With the emerging technology, implementation of the interview process is becoming flexible thus moving away from the rigid face to face mode. Besides their strengths, there are also challenges and ethical dilemmas that are linked to interviews. As a perfect qualitative data collection method, researchers have professional issues that they have a deal with throughout the process. The link between all these issues is the subject area of the current discussion, which tackles each factor separately.

The purpose of this paper is to assess the extent of relevance of the federal character as a national policy in recruitment into the Nigerian federal civil service and probe whether or not the level of application of merit supersedes the application of ecological considerations in recruitment into the service. It utilizes quantitative and qualitative data collection to espouse its theme. The paper finds that there are personnel problems connected with poor application of federal character policy in recruitment into the civil service and this affects the quality of entrants. It recommends strict application of merit standard to attract best workers while implementing federal character policy through proven certification of state of applicants. The paper notes that the Nigerian federal character policy is one that places premium on state representation in governance and bureaucracy and a strategy for national integration. However, there must be predominant application of merit in recruitment.

Abstract This study aims to determine the educational supervision plan, educational supervision feedback for the principal or teacher, and the techniques used in educational supervision at SDN 246 Rantebelu Kecamatan Larompong Kabupaten Luwu. The type used in this research is descriptive qualitative. Data collection techniques are interviews, observation, and documentation study. The research subjects were teachers and administrative staff. The results showed that: (1) the education supervision plan carried out at SDN 246 Rantebelu Kecamatan Larompong Kabupaten Luwu is to prepare RPP, syllabus, list of scores, absence of annual programs and semester programs. (2) educational supervision feedback to the principal or teacher, namely verbal (verbal), providing comments on the results of direct observation of the learning process through face-to-face, no distance or equipment used. This method is usually carried out by talking to each other / dialogue, interviews, meetings, speeches, and discussions. Apart from that, giving comments can also be done indirectly through intermediary tools such as telephones, cellphones, etc. because of the distance between the speaker and the interlocutor. Non-verbal (written), providing comments on the results of observations of the learning process by means of writing without direct conversation using short, clear, and understandable language by the recipient. This method can be in the form of correspondence, sms, e-mail, learning photos, and so on. (3) There are 2 types of techniques used in SDN 246 Rantebelu Kecamatan Larompong Kabupaten Luwu, namely direct supervision, which means that the supervisor goes directly to the class to see the learning of students from beginning to end. While administrative supervision is only the administrative aspects that are assessed.   Keywords: educational supervision

Abstract Background Qualitative data are crucial for capturing implementation processes, and thus necessary for understanding implementation trial outcomes. Typical methods for capturing such data include observations, focus groups, and interviews. Yet little consideration has been given to how such methods create interactions between researchers and study participants, which may affect participants’ engagement, and thus implementation activities and study outcomes. In the context of a clinical trial, we assessed whether and how ongoing telephone check-ins to collect data about implementation activities impacted the quality of collected data, and participants’ engagement in study activities. Methods Researchers conducted regular phone check-ins with clinic staff serving as implementers in an implementation study. Approximately 1 year into this trial, 19 of these study implementers were queried about the impact of these calls on study engagement and implementation activities. The two researchers who collected implementation process data through phone check-ins with the study implementers were also interviewed about their perceptions of the impact of the check-ins. Results Study implementers’ assessment of the check-ins’ impact fell into three categories: (1) the check-ins had no effect on implementation activities, (2) the check-ins served as a reminder about study participation (without relating a clear impact on implementation activities), and (3) the check-ins caused changes in implementation activities. The researchers similarly perceived that the phone check-ins served as reminders and encouraged some implementers’ engagement in implementation activities; their ongoing nature also created personal connections with study implementers that may have impacted implementation activities. Among some study implementers, anticipation of the check-in calls also improved their ability to recount implementation activities and positively affected quality of the data collected. Conclusion These results illustrate the potential impact of qualitative data collection on implementation activities during implementation science trials. Mitigating such effects may prove challenging, but acknowledging these consequences—or even embracing them, perhaps by designing data collection methods as implementation strategies—could enhance scientific rigor. This work is presented to stimulate debate about the complexities involved in capturing data on implementation processes using common qualitative data collection methods.

Collaborative sensing has become a novel approach for smart phone based data collection. In this process individuals contributes to the participatory data collection by sharing the data collected using their smart phone sensors. Since the data is gathered by human participants it is difficult to guarantee the Quality of the data received. Mobility of the participant and accuracy of the sensor also matters for the quality of data shared in such environment. If the data shared by such participants are of low quality the purpose of collaborative sensing fails. So there must be approach to gather good quality of data from participants. In this paper we propose a Truth Estimation Algorithm (TEA) to identify the truth value of the data received and filter out anomalous data items to improve the quality of data. To encourage the participants to share quality information we also propose an Incentive Allocation Algorithm (IAA) for qualitative data collection.

Qualitative researchers face unique opportunities and challenges as a result of the disruption of COVID-19. Although the pandemic represents a unique opportunity to study the crisis itself, social distancing mandates are restricting traditional face-to-face investigations of all kinds. In this article, we describe options and resources for researchers who find themselves needing to alter their study designs from face-to-face qualitative data collection to a “socially distant” method. Although technologies are constantly changing, we review the latest videoconferencing services available to researchers and provide guidance on what services might best suit a project’s needs. We describe options for various platforms and applications including information about enhanced security applications for researchers collecting sensitive patient health information. Concerns about these technologies including security of the platform and logistical needs such as computer equipment are also discussed. Special attention is given to ethical issues when transitioning research efforts to online venues.
