An introduction to the fundamentals of MAXQDA, a qualitative and mixed methods analysis software program with hands-on activities
What to Expect:
An introduction to the fundamentals of MAXQDA, a qualitative and mixed methods analysis software program with hands-on activities
What to Expect:
- In the first session, we will introduce the ways that qualitative software can be used and provide a detailed introduction to MAXQDA features. Participants will have time to practice using the software as features are demonstrated. Major topics will include: understanding the user interface, importing data, viewing and editing data, coding and managing codes, retrieving coded segments, working with memos, searching the database, and exporting coded segments and reports.
- In the second session, we will have more hands-on work and continue with advanced features of MAXQDA. We will also introduce mixed methods features, such as adding quantitative data, conducting a mixed methods analysis, and building joint displays of integrated qualitative and quantitative results.
We encourage participants to bring their laptops in order to practice using MAXQDA. Participants can use a sample dataset (provided) or bring their own data.
