The idea
Mixed-methods research combines the two approaches, using qualitative work to generate hypotheses and quantitative work to test them, or running both at once.
In practice
Interviews suggest a pattern; a survey then checks whether it holds across the school.
Where people slip
Running both at once is triangulation: when the two agree, the finding is stronger; when they differ, a new question opens.
