This article describes the foundations, establishment and development of qualitative research, which has grown into a considerable methodological option in educational science. Qualitative research is anchored in the hermeneutic tradition and its most prominent features are an interpretative approach, inductive research strategy and idiographic results. More particularly, the article focuses upon the variation that can be found in qualitative research regarding interpretation, structuring of empirical data and theory generation. Three distinctive types of interpretation named within interpretation, outside-in interpretation and inside-out interpretation are described and discussed. The processes of coding and different forms of taxonomic and non-taxonomic structuring of empirical data are also presented. Theory-generating strategies and the ability of some research approaches to provide tools for theory generation are examined in connection to three levels of theory generation. Finally, the necessity of evaluation of qualitative research results is clarified and discussed.
