Qualitative data analysis can be a very daunting task without the help of any analysis software. NVivoâ„¢ is a software application that simplifies qualitative data analysis, supporting text, multimedia, pictures, and PDFs; open-ended surveys from Excel and Survey Monkey among the many more data formats. NVivoâ„¢ supports a range of inductive and deductive methods for qualitative data analysis such as thematic and content analysis, within and cross-case analysis and many more. The workshop covers the key steps involved in qualitative data analysis using QSR NVivoâ„¢ starting with data types and the creation of an NVivoâ„¢ project, the uploading of data, data coding, code categorizations, query building and interpretation of output from queries. No prerequisite knowledge of NVivoâ„¢ is required.
