In this webinar, you'll be introduced to basic features of qualitative data analysis software (QDAS) programs, such as how to import data, code textual findings (i.e., transcripts), and create memos. You'll participate in several short exercises using MAXQDA 11 software (installed on your computer prior to the workshop). A comparison of interfaces and coding will be demonstrated with NVivo and ATLAS.ti. Factors to consider when choosing and using QDAS programs will be noted, and you'll be provided with a list of QDAS resources.
This webinar is intended for anyone carrying out qualitative research: students, research assistants, professors, and people in nonprofit or government agencies (e.g., carrying out program evaluations).
