Nvivo: Qualitative Data Analysis with NVivo12

Nvivo: Qualitative Data Analysis with Nvivo12 (Elif Kus Saillard, 8h)

In this hands-on workshop, we will work on sample qualitative data and experience qualitative data analysis steps with NVivo. We will experience different qualitative coding strategies with methodological guidance, use the relationship query features of the software, and prepare a visual report. The question of "why" as well as "how" will find an answer throughout the workshop. In this way, the possibilities offered by the software will be presented in a holistic framework.

 

This workshop will take place online:

  • Weekly on Mondays, from 11 January until 1 February 2021, 14:00-15:45
