Kokkuvõte	Equal-weight multilevel mixed methods is a mixed methods design in which quantitative and qualitative data strands are collected at two or more distinct levels of a social system — such as students, classrooms, and schools — and both strands carry equal analytic priority. The QUAN+QUAL notation (where '+' signals equal weight) is applied across each level, and integration occurs both within and between levels to build a comprehensive, multi-perspectival understanding.	The exploratory sequential mixed methods design is a two-phase research framework in which a qualitative phase is conducted first to explore a poorly understood phenomenon, and the findings then inform a subsequent quantitative phase — typically to develop and test a survey instrument, measure a theory, or generalize qualitative insights to a larger population. The qualitative strand guides what is measured; the quantitative strand tests or extends those findings at scale.
