1. I'd like for you to get a bit more comfortable with this idea of finding (indigenous) or developing your own (analyst-constructed) typologies, sets of concepts, models, etc.!
Soooo - could you please identify such a related typology, model, framework, etc., for me?

* It can be either an existing one (i.e., indigenous) or creatively brainstormed (analyst-constructed) by you!

* It can come out of:

a) your eventual dissertation topic/area of interest;
b) one of the 2 articles you submitted for this course;
c) another article, area of interest in which you've perhaps written a paper or made a presentation for another course;
d) any other source(s) you like!

The parameters are wide open on this one! I just want to see some evidence that you are beginning to think about such 'conceptual frameworks' for compiling and analyzing qualitative data! Therefore, I'd like you to either identify an existing one or create one yourself to match some article, topic, or area of your interest! You might wish to list/identify the specific concepts or labels; e.g., for the 12 skill dimensions, what are they, specifically? (short phrases for each are fine). This way, I can see the labels (existing or created by you) that you are referencing!
