Are you planning to conduct interviews or focus groups for your data collection, or perhaps collect policy papers or social media data from blogs, Facebook or Twitter? After you complete your data collection, you will sooner or later have to confront the mass of data you gathered and analyse your material.
But will you know how?
This course provides strategic understanding of, and applied skills in, planning, conducting and reporting qualitative data analysis in one’s research. You will learn the key concepts that underlie the process of qualitative analysis, which often go missing in qualitative research seminars, and are rarely discussed in mainstream qualitative methods textbooks, such as:
The course explores these topics and more, and puts them into practice during hands-on sessions using NVivo. You will be able to work on your own data, discuss your research design, and troubleshoot problems with regard to your analysis with the teaching assistant, and present your analysis plan at the Masterclass.
The course combines asynchronous pre-class assignments, such as readings and watching pre-recorded videos, as well as daily two-hour live sessions with Zoom. To prevent Zoom fatigue and boredom, the course pedagogy includes small-group work, short, focused tasks and troubleshooting exercises using a range of online apps that support collective work and engagement with the course content.
This course assumes no previous knowledge of qualitative data analysis or NVivo, but requires basic understanding of qualitative research.
This course only teaches the basic features of NVivo. For a comprehensive NVivo course, see Introduction to NVivo that will be taught in week one.
This course uses the latest version of NVivo R.1 for Mac and Windows. You must run this version to successfully attend the course as previous versions (10 or 12) have different interfaces. If this is your situation, or if your university does not provide you with an NVivo license, you can download the NVivo 14-day free trial. The free trial is fully operational, but can't be reinstalled on a same computer once it expires.
