Date： March 30（Monday), 2026 from 14:00 to 15:30 Topic: “Technoficing: From Idea to Measurement and Beyond” Speaker: Israr Qureshi (Professor of Digital Development and Social Entrepreneurship, Queen’s Business School, Queen’s University Belfast) Abstract: This research seminar traces the journey from ideas to measurement, illustrating how meaningful research emerges when scholars integrate grounded inquiry, rich ethnography, and rigorous measurement development. Using the phenomenon of technoficing—the creative adaptation and repurposing of technology for social good (Qureshi et al., 2021)—as an example, the session highlights how compelling research ideas often originate in the field through close observation, immersion, and engagement with real-world practice. Ethnographic and case-based methods help researchers identify novel concepts and…

Date： January 20（Tuesday), 2026 from 13:00 to 15:00 Topic: “Designing research for fit: Research design considerations for qualitative researchers” Abstract: Conducting convincing and impactful qualitative research depends on researchers’ ability to collect rich, meaningful data. This, in turn, requires thoughtful research design. In this lecture, we will explore how qualitative researchers craft designs that achieve “fit” among the core components of a study—phenomenon, context, theory, data, and research question. We will consider how onto-epistemological assumptions and orientations toward variance or process theorizing shape methodological choices, and reflect on the dynamic nature of design, where researchers’ ability to reflexively adjust design elements in situ is essential for ensuring rigor and generating…
