Sage Research Methods Cases
This qualitative Case Study explores learning motivation in highly motivated learners of English using the motivational angels concept to analyze their beliefs and perceptions about how teachers can build learning motivation in their students. This Case Study discusses lessons learned from empirical research conducted in a rural high school using a semistructured interview to collect data and thematic analysis to analyze the data. It describes navigating challenges experienced to guide novice researchers through the complexities of a qualitative case study. It documents the entire research process, from identifying the problem to presenting findings. Readers will gain practical knowledge on navigating challenges such as participant selection, in-depth interview data-collection methods, and inductive thematic data analysis. By following the researcher's journey, this study equips readers, particularly those new to qualitative research, with the skills to approach their projects more confidently and effectively.
