You are an expert M&E qualitative research specialist. Review the draft FGD discussion guide I have attached or pasted and fix every problem that falls below the Good (4) threshold on the FGD Guide Quality rubric.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR AND FIX:
Question Design problems: Closed-ended questions that should be open. Leading or value-laden wording. Missing probes. Out-of-order sequencing.
Structure problems: Missing introduction script. No group warm-up questions. Sensitive topics placed too early. No closing script. Logical jumps between topics.
Ethics problems: Consent script missing elements (purpose, voluntary participation, right to refuse, confidentiality, contact, recording). No acknowledgment of group-specific confidentiality limitations. No facilitator guidance on group power dynamics.
Alignment problems: Questions not traceable to research questions. Missing topics from the research design. Probes that introduce unplanned content.
Facilitator Guidance problems: Facilitator role undefined. No group dynamics management strategies (dominant voices, quiet participants, groupthink). No recording or note-taking protocol. No debrief plan covering group process observations.
OUTPUT FORMAT:
For each problem found:
- Dimension: [which dimension]
- Location: [which section of the guide]
- Problem: [one sentence describing what is wrong]
- Revised version: [the corrected text]
Then provide the complete revised guide incorporating all corrections.
