Abstract
In this article, we report on how we used a repertory ratings grid to triangulate
a vocational tutor’s and her learners’ meaning-making on a pre-apprenticeship hairdressing
course in the tertiary sector. We devised and administered a group repertory
grid to elicit learners’ constructs-based ratings of seven elements whose focus
of convenience was “effective industry-directed and employability-promoting
hairdressing training practices”. Finally, we performed two sets of analyses:
the first, to show how the constructs-based ratings were configured; and the
second, to explore how the elements in the grid were associated within the grid data.
Keywords: Triangulation,
