“…2 The duration of the interview lasted between 15 minutes to 3 hours, depending on the availability of each participant and readiness to share their thoughts. Interviews were coded by the first author using an iterative coding approach in which the first stage of coding was deductive utilizing the ACF concepts (Kazbekova, 2022, p.85; McKibben et al, 2020) and second round coding using open-ended discourse analysis to allow themes to emerge in vivo (Charmaz, 2006; Kazbekova, 2022, p.86). All research received human subjects IRB approval from xxxx University (study number 20–035).…”

This study offers a number of contemporary qualitative and mixed methods research lessons regarding cross-language research and research in closed social and political contexts such as post-Soviet countries, especially how such research may be adapted to disruptions like those posed by the COVID pandemic or other disasters. The lessons draw from a study of policy learning among government officials in Kazakhstan which illustrated several methodological strengths and weaknesses and generated a number of methodological recommendations. In particular, while the literature on best practices for research in closed contexts emphasizes deep interactions to develop trust, the COVID pandemic and other disruptions may force researchers to transition to online modalities and constrain options. We suggest strategies to overcome these limitations, including supplementing findings from interviews with content analysis or other multimethod approaches. Additionally, we argue that researchers in post-Soviet and post-colonial contexts must be particularly attuned to the challenges of cross-language research and the combination of local languages with the language of the colonial power. These lessons hold relevance for researchers working in a variety of contexts as they conduct research during times of disasters and geopolitical instability.

“…This study relied on the method of deductive content analysis, considering the features dealt with by Morgan (1996), Al-Shuwaikh (2013), andO'Keeffe andO'Donoghue (2011). Deductive content analysis is a priori design, where the categories and themes are taken from a theoretical framework and the researchers finds the values of these categories in the specific data (McKibben et al, 2020).…”

This research aimed to analyze Algebra unit in both the old and new Palestinian curriculum for the ninth grade by using deductive content analysis based on the social semiotic approach. The results of this study showed that, in both books, the mental, behavioral, and verbal processes were more frequent than the relational, existential, and material processes. Moreover, the most frequent object used in both curriculum were the initial description, the rule, and the official definition. The most frequent representation of the mathematical object in both curriculum, was the algebraic representation, then the verbal, the numerical and the graphic representations. The research findings also indicate that in both books, the use of the pronoun “I” was the most frequent, then the pronoun “we” and then other pronouns. The imperative was frequent in the Algebra unit in the old curriculum, but less frequent in the new curriculum. The research findings, regarding the textual function in both books, indicated that the text orientation ‘previous knowledge to new knowledge’ was the most frequent in Algebra. This demonstrates that the author in both books cared about applying the new knowledge and assessing it, what means that the text progresses horizontally in both curriculum.
