writing about field research and trying to make it more enhanced for learning‚ the qualitative researchers have to organize the presentation of all the interrelated "pieces" which influence each other. For that‚ in addition to other approaches‚ qualitative researchers work within paradigms. In the simplest of terms‚ a paradigm is "a basic set of beliefs that guide action".
