Description:

This course introduces students to advanced analysis and interpretation of qualitative textual data.

We will learn ways of organizing, transcribing, and analyzing data through databases and computer software for coding textual data (Atlas.ti). Students will analyze data they gathered as part of their fieldwork projects to help them write up their final MA projects. Classroom sessions include lectures, discussions, and intensive group work related to the fieldwork projects. Course open to all IDCE students who have conducted primary research.
