Essentials of qualitative data analysis: The use of software tools (NVivo)

As part of its series of digital humanities training workshops, Media@看片视频 is organizing a workshop on qualitative data analysis on Wednesday, January 31, 2018, from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. in Arts W-220, Faculty of Arts, 853 Sherbrooke Street West, Montreal, QC.

Description:

This workshop will offer students an overview of the main methodological tools of qualitative data collection and analysis. Specifically, we will focus on data analysis techniques from different traditions of qualitative research (ethnography, phenomenology and symbolic interactionism), such as thematic and narrative analysis. We will use concrete examples from our own research to illustrate how we integrate software tools in the data analysis process. We will explore the pros and cons of the main qualitative data analysis software programs, especially NVivo, the one that we are currently using in most of our research projects.
