I wanted to share that I'm running some special online sessions in NVivo training. They are 2 hours, twice a week, and run for 4 weeks. Maximum of 10 people - so small numbers.

The 4 training sessions are recorded and accessible for up to 8 weeks after the course, and the other 4 sessions are basically a Zoom room where everyone comes together and has an opportunity to work on their own data.

The aim is that people can walk away with a clear idea on how to use and apply NVivo for their data analysis.

Here is a link to the sessions:

Has anyone got recommendations for an open source, lightweight, #nvivo like software for #qualitative research.

I'm thinking of simple coding for pdf or word documents.

One that works on a #Mac too!

I'm going to try Taguette...

I'm looking forward to running a workshop for the Lumivero virtual conference on Wednesday covering one of the most commonly requested topics: how to harness #NVivo classifications in the best way for your research design. Join me 10am UK time - the conference is free to register for. #QualitativeResearch #QualitativeDataAnalysis #QDA #QualitativeSoftware https://events.zoom.us/ev/AnsIiD8pqASblt2Vuv1SFBZGt-vtWtbO2C6Xz0IMT3-UkjrXOSmg~AggLXsr32QYFjq8BlYLZ5I06Dg

Calling all #NVivo users - start off September with 3 days of focused training with me on harnessing its tools for your analytic needs. Hosted by Instats the sessions are recorded for review afterwards. More info & booking https://instats.org/seminar/harnessing-nvivo-for-qualitative-and-mix1128

Combining demonstrations, discussions, presentations, group-work & feedback, you're encouraged to bring data to work with & discuss sessions, although sample materials will also be available

"From a critical realist perspective, rigour and validity come from researcher reflexivity" (p. 378)

This article is worth reading #qualitative peeps interested in realist methods. Although focused on #NVivo is relevant to #CAQDAS generally

Does anyone know of a Foss alternative to nVivo for qualitative data analysis? @switchingsocial@mastodon.at

Computer-assisted #QualitativeDataAnalysis Software (#QDA #CAQDAS) is great for text interpretation and #contentanalysis. Besides proprietary software #MaxQDA, #NVivo, #AtlasTi, there are great #crossplatform #opensource packages:

Client:
#QualCoder (inspired by #RQDA)
#Elan
