encouragement from the mighty b:
(see, somebody's at least paying a *little* attention to my efforts at making headway here!)
remember that you don't need to know everything about qualitative methodologies; all you need to do is say "I'm going to do X and A,B, and C did it this way too" or "I'm going to do X and it diverges from what A & B did in the following ways, and here's why I'm diverging" and you don't have to have final answers to what/how you're doing after the prospectus hearing you'll do a pilot and see how that goes and then adjust as necessary the prospectus just convinces your committee that you know what you're doing and won't dig yourself into a hole that you can't write your way out of
(we'll leave the part where i couldn't write my way out of a wet paper bag right now to pointless speculation. or at least to the excuse department busily cranking out explanations for the lack of progress on the prospectus...)
