Beyond Creswell's Five Approaches
The first approach identified other than the five approaches identified by Creswell is Thematic analysis is the method that stresses on describing and organizing rich data sets. It goes beyond counting words and phrases to recognizing explicit and/or implicit ideas within collected data (Guest & MacQueen, 2012, p. 12). Researchers review data, take notes and sort these notes into categories. It helps researchers as a strategy data move to analyze from a comprehensive reading of the data to developing themes and determining patterns. Understanding these codes usually include relating theme frequencies, recognizing theme co-occurrences, and vividly displaying relationships between different themes (Guest & MacQueen, 2012, p. 17). Thematic analysis is usually done inductively or deductively (Braun & Clarke, 2006). In an inductive thematic analysis approach, the themes that are identified are very linked to the data because assumptions...
With the deductive thematic analysis, the assumptions are theory-driven. This means that analyzing data is less descriptive because the data is limited to the preconceived frames (Braun & Clarke, 2006).
The other qualitative approach identified for qualitative research is the Historical qualitative approach. This is an objective evaluation and a systematic collection of data that relates to past incidences or events and that are used for hypotheses testing. The researchers revisit these events because they are concerned with the causes and effects of these events and how they have affected or will affect the future or future events (Wicks & Whiteford, 2006).

Mixed Methods Research Two important aspects of qualitative research relates to the role of the researcher and the manner in which knowledge is viewed. These two aspects fundamentally distinguish qualitative research from quantitative research (Creswell, 2014). In qualitative research, the researcher seeks to cultivate a closer relationship with the subject(s). This means that the researcher focuses on a single or a small number of subjects, and utilises designs that allow closer
