ABOUT ME
I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Inquiry Methodology program and minoring in German Studies at Indiana University. I got my undergraduate from the Department of Political Science and Public Administration. I completed courses in the master's program of Media and Cultural Studies at Middle East Technical University. During my field and methodological experiences, I decided to get my education from the Inquiry Methodology program at School of Education in Indiana University.
I am interested in the theory of recognition as the logical ground for understanding intersubjectivity, mutuality, consent, self-esteem, respect and responsibility in the research experiences. Loving the knowledge is my main aim to invite my beliefs and norms to reconstruct them with the possible other people.
I always think that "Dreams must be fantasies over the realities, the reality must be invisible walls between us and truth. But there is a mutuality and togetherness to help us to see, understand and interpret our beings" I like cleaning dust while breaking walls to have the possibility of seeing each others and our Being of the Truth with the help of communicative action.
While data analysis, I prefer to use various programs like Nvivo, MaxQDA and ELAN. These data analysis programs help me to organize my interpretive strategies and write my notes in a robust and rich format. I use them for data collection and analysis.
I think that critical qualitative methodology help me to have insights about humanizing methodologies by creating friendship with respect, love and responsibility for each other in an academia rather than technological and instrumental needs. We are here to think wisely and reconstruct the equity and equality in the field of educational research.

Ph.D. Program*

Inquiry Methodology is a unique and important program that is grounded in the unity of educational research methods and the research philosophy of social sciences. This program enables me to explore the intersections of qualitative, quantitative and mixed research as an integrated study. My training and research focus on researchers’ positionality, intersubjectivities, and horizons expansions as trust, truth-seeking through methodology by looking at various challenges in the discourse, content, thematic, biographical, and participatory research designs. Finally, I am interested in the construction and reframing of recognition theory that might create reflective and intersubjective pragmatism in the educational research to overcome current methodological problems and articulate the philosophy of research practices and the maxims of research methodology. Specifically, my research practices are based on ethnography, autobiography, duo-ethnography, narrative, feminist, phenomenology, visual analysis, critical discourse analysis, and conversation analysis.

Review on Articles about Qualitative Inquiry

First-time bloggers often chase the big spikes in traffic that come with a viral post or a big media mention. Then lightning finally strikes… and they come to realize that those surges in traffic are made up mostly of people who aren’t very engaged and who don’t stick around for very long. (c)

I think that the most valuable thing in an academia is there might be a scholarly collaborative environment in which I might have a chance to learn from you and share what I know with you. Collective consciousness in an academia would be more valuable with your existence.
