Dr. Ola Demkowicz ‘Why mixed-method research matters’ – In Conversation

Dr. Ola Demkowicz discusses mix-method research and how it enables researchers and policymakers to understand the big picture. She discusses her research on the TELL Study (https://www.seed.manchester.ac.uk/education/research/impact/teenagers-experiences-of-life-in-lockdown/) (Teenager’s Experiences of Life in Lockdown) a quantitative approach which involved 16-19 year olds writing about their own experiences in lockdown. Ola also discusses how over time our definitions of resilience have changed and the role of circumstance and mitigating factors.
