What problems exist for aresearcher attempting to conduct qualitative research in a public p-12 setting?

First do no harm.


Second you must have signed release forms from all participants, unless the participants are children, when you must have them from parents/guardians.


Third you must have approval from the superintendent or the school board depending on the policies of the district.


Fourth you must have a large enough sample of participants to make the research valid.


I could keep going, but I suggest you take a research methods class or sit down with a researcher to go over specifics with your research proposal.
