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 workshops does not assume any previous knowledge of MAXQDA. You may find it helpful to use the materials from the Planning Qualitative Data Analysis workshop to think about strategies relevant to your own research project.

By the end of this workshop, we hope you'll be able to: 
 1) Access the Illinois license for MAXQDA 
 2) Create a new project file 
 3) Add text, survey, and media data to your project file. 
 4) Organize data files for analytic purposes. 
 5) Begin building a coding system in MAXQDA
 6) Apply codes to data in your project file. 

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). 

This workshop will be in-person in Library 314 and will not be recorded. An online version of this workshop will be offered on Thursday, February 19, which will be recorded.
