Abstract

This paper discusses on phenomenological research in education, which seeks to understand and describe the subjective experiences of individuals in educational contexts to promote empathy and understanding among different stakeholders. To achieve the objective of this paper, conventional qualitative content analysis methods adhering to the naturalistic paradigm was employed to describe a phenomenon. Phenomenological research design in education is a qualitative research approach that focuses on the subjective experiences of individuals in a particular situation or phenomenon. It aims to understand the meaning and essence of these experiences through in-depth interviews, observations, and analysis of personal reflections. It recognizes the importance of language and interpretation in capturing complex human experiences. Confidentiality and sharing of research findings with participants is important to uphold ethical standards. It is valuable in education as it provides rich and detailed descriptions of individuals’ experiences and can inform tailored interventions and policies. Nevertheless, the subjectivity of the results limits generalizability and the methodology can be time- and resource-intensive. In general, this approach is particularly useful in exploring complex educational issues and can provide valuable insights into the perspectives of students, teachers, and other stakeholders. Overall, phenomenological research design can offer a unique and valuable perspective on educational phenomena that cannot be captured through other research methods.
