MAXQDA is a robust software for analyzing qualitative data, including text, media, and survey data. The software is free for all University of Illinois users via a license provided by Illinois Computes.
This workshop assumes that you know how to create, manage, and use documents and codes in MAXQDA. If you haven’t used MAXQDA before, you can see slides and a recording of an introductory workshop online.
By the end of this workshop, we hope you'll be able to:
1) Create a code system in MAXQDA by importing existing code files or manually adding new codes.
2) Apply codes to text, media, and survey data, both manually and automatically using keyword searches.
3) Organize codes using sets.
4) Add comments, paraphrases, and summaries to coded segments.
5) Use activation to view data for specific codes and documents.
6) Set up a project for multiple coders in a way that facilitates inter-rater reliability assessments.See slides and a recording of a previous version of this workshop.
See directions for installing MAXQDA and using the Illinois license.
Request a version of this workshop for your research team or class by contacting Jess Hagman (jhagman@illinois.edu).
