English [Auto],

What you'll learn

  • Use NVivo 12 for Qualitative data analysis
  • Explore the data, make a note of your observations and link these notes to other elements of the project
  • Categorize your data into folders, sets and cases
  • Create Mind Maps reflecting your assumptions, observations and expectations
  • Compare cases by attributes and values (e.g. did men and women express similar views?)
  • Code the data and create a thematic framework
  • Run professional data analysis using coding queries
  • Create Project Maps and Concept Maps to explore and visualise links in your project
  • THINK like a professional qualitative researcher!

Course content

7 sections36 lectures4h 40m total length
  • Introduction to Section 13:17

    Explore the general layout of nvivo 12, import your data set, and record initial observations to enhance validity and guide early analysis, including creating a basic model.

  • Starting a new project in NVivo6:28

    Start a new blank NVivo 12 project, name it, choose its location, decide on a project event log for team collaboration, and explore the workspace and menus.

  • Importing the dataset5:13

    Import your dataset into the Nvivo project using the top menu or the data folder, then access transcripts. Explore transcripts and learn about creating cases per file.

  • Bonus lecture - the importance of note-making in qualitative data analysis3:39

    Learn how note-making drives qualitative data analysis by recording initial observations, assumptions, and hypotheses, maintaining an audit trail, and using diaries and coding books to support evidence and validity.

  • Making annotations5:56

    Create initial notes from interview transcripts by making annotations to identify barriers and facilitators of success. Use annotations to capture turning obstacles into positives and to access notes across sources.

  • Memos11:48

    Learn to use memos in vivo to record general observations across the study. Link memos to specific sources, organize them in folders, and add dates to entries.

  • See Also links6:03

    Learn how see also links turn notes into interactive connections by linking memo entries to specific text fragments or whole sources, boosting cross-reference and data exploration.

  • Mind maps11:46

    Learn how mind maps and other models aid qualitative data analysis by visualizing assumptions, sparking hypotheses, and linking ideas to a coding framework using NVivo 12.

Requirements

  • NO data set is required (you will be provided with a sample data set to work with)
  • You should have a licensed NVivo software installed on your computer
  • ⚠️The course was recorded on the WINDOWS version, and although it is very similar to the MAC version, some may find the differences confusing
  • ⚠️ NVivo 12 Pro was used for recording the course. In March 2020, a new NVivo update came out and the layout of NVivo changed slightly. HOWEVER, all options and functions I discuss in the course are still exactly the same

Whether you are completely new to NVivo, or have some previous experience with it, you will find this course both useful and enjoyable.

I am a professional researcher, research consultant and academic tutor, and in this course, I will teach you complex ideas in a simple and approachable way and I will make sure that when you complete it:


➡️ you will be able to use a variety of functions of NVivo, ranging from simple note-making, sorting and coding to more complex data queries (see the details in the "What you'll learn" section above)

➡️ you will understand how NVivo can help you take Your data analysis to a higher level. You will have a good understanding of what can be done to enrich your data analysis and how to use NVivo for this purpose

➡️ you will impress your supervisors, teachers, employers or colleagues with the depth of the analysis you undertake


The best thing about this course is that all lessons are logically connected - the analytic ideas that emerge early in the course when we record our initial thoughts will be later tested when we learn to code and conduct various coding queries. I do not just talk about how to conduct a given query without first explaining what this query is, how it will help us, and why we may want to conduct it in the first place!

This is, in fact, what my students seem to like most about my courses - the way I explain things, the way the lessons are organised and the way I support my students throughout (I am very responsive to messages and always do my best to assist each student personally).

I hope that you will take this course and we will soon embark on this exciting analytic journey together!
