PUBH X217 - The Learning Lab: Introduction to NVivo Workshop
Description
Qualitative methods are critical for understanding the experiences and perspectives of our partners and communities, but often require specialized skills and extensive time commitments to successfully implement. Rapid qualitative methods seek to address these gaps. We will describe a simple rapid qualitative method, template analysis, which can be used to efficiently translate participant experiences and perspectives into actionable results.
Objectives
The purpose of this activity is to enable the learner to:
- add source materials (text, images, audio/video, survey/spreadsheets)
- work with concepts (or codes/tags) and their definitions and apply them to their source materials
