Research Design

Phenomenology, it emphasizes understanding the subjective

experience of parents who have a child with special needs. By
adopting this approach, you can delve into how children with special
needs experience the new normal set-up in their educational settings.
This includes their thoughts, feelings, perceptions, challenges, and
coping mechanisms. Phenomenology allows you to capture the
nuance and complexities or their experiences, providing a rich and
detailed understanding. This can shed light on how these children
perceive and interpret their experiences, as well as the significance
they attribute to different aspects of the new normal set-up.

Phenomenology prioritizes the voices and perspectives of

participants through interviews, observations, and other data
collection methods. By allowing them to share their stories, you can
empower them to voice in shaping policies, interventions, and
support systems related to the new normal set-up. Phenomenological
research can provide valuable information for developing targeted
interventions and support strategies. By deeply understanding the
lived experiences of the children with special needs in the new
normal set-up, you can identify specific areas where additional is
needed, adapt instructional approaches, or enhance accessibility
