A case study methodology is not bound by any specific type of data but, more sothan other methodologies (e.g. historical, laboratory, etc.), requires the convergence of differenttypes of data sources for strengthening the validity and accuracy of the findings [8]. This meansthat case study research often requires multiple research methods for collecting data. One way that validity can be constructed in case study research is through the process ofcomparing and converging multiple sources of evidence, otherwise known as “triangulation” [8].For the case of Julie’s teaching and coaching, data included field notes, audio and visual materi-als (i.e. digital audio
