Scientific Literacy
The term scientific literacy arises due to the need of the scientific community to see that the population validated its scientific and technological production. The construct Scientific literacy has been subject to diverse conceptual considerations over the years, arising from the scientific, technological, social and political changes that marked contemporary society characteristics. In this study, we sought to assess the evolution of the scien…
Reflecting on Caqdas and Ethics
As the use of Computer-assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software (CAQDAS) becomes recurrent in qualitative research, researchers who use this methodological approach need to consider how ethical issues present themselves when we use these types of tools. In this introductory text to the Special Issue of The Qualitative Report, we identify and discuss some of the ethical aspects that we believe are interconnected with CAQDAS. By doing so, we hop…
How Do We Like to Learn Qualitative Data Analysis Software
The learning of Computer Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software (CAQDAS) can represent a great challenge and obstacle to the adoption of these tools in support of research. Thus, it seems imperative that CAQDAS developers devise strategies and tools that stimulate and support researchers in the learning process of their applications. To this end, this study focuses on the learning preferences of CAQDAS users. A focus group was conducted with…
Technology Ethics in Qualitative Research
This introductory note stems from the organization of a special edition of articles from the World Conference on Qualitative Research. Some researchers put forth criticisms about using software in qualitative data analysis, such as losing control in the coding process and leading researchers to use a particular method of analysis according to tool characteristics. Moreover, a number of the scientists believe that the advantages of using specific …
Introduction

Asking Questions in the Qualitative Research Context
Research is based on a constant questioning process. All researchers should ask questions in every research phase, what is read, the research design definition, data analysed and the way they are discussed and how their conclusions are drawn. It is generally accepted that to start scientific research, irrespectively of the area of expertise, the starting point is the drafting of one or more research questions, ordinarily known as a research probl…
Methods of Teaching Centered on Learning and Formative Assessment in Higher Education
We analyse the importance of meaningful learning and the use of a formative assessment strategy, promoted by peer learning methods centred on the students, in a curricular unit (CU) pertaining to a degree in Exact Sciences, in a Higher Education Institution. Five students from the CU were questioned, through a focus group; the teacher was interviewed. Data of 12 hours of lessons was analysed and categorised using webQDA. We conclude that emphasis…

Incertitudes, ou le cinéma au plus proche du rêve
Le vocabulaire du cinéma est souvent employé pour parler du rêve, soit parce que film et psychanalyse sont apparus à la même époque, soit plutôt parce que la position du spectateur, passif dans le noir et absorbé par le jeu des images rappelle, de loin, celle du rêveur. De telles approximations font oublier tout ce que l’introduction d’une séquence onirique – fiction dans la fiction (un personnage fictif fait un rêve fictif) – provoque dans le dé…
Raul Brandão
Não parece que os biógrafos de Raul Brandão tenham a sua vida militar como algo de muito relevante. Uns pretendem detectar uma certa incompatibilidade entre a sensibilidade do escritor e as regras de funcionamento do Exército Português do seu tempo. Outros pretendem escudar-se numa certa ponta de crítica à instituição castrense, que transparece nos seus escritos, embora não haja notícias de animosidade contra camaradas, durante o curso de formaçã…
