Analyse qualitative data

How teachers manage their classroom in the digital learning environment – experiences from the University Smart Learning Project

“…Then, the interview and observation data were done by using thematic analysis with following steps ( Jamieson, 2016 ): Data preparation and immersion After interviewing, collected data were prepared as follow: Recorded files were given by code names; Transcribing audio-recorded files by using Microsoft Word; Editing and formatting data by removing no meaning, duplicated and repeated words; Translating formatted data from Thai language to English language; Translated data were re-edited to ensure the quality of data; Exporting data from word files into an excel file; Reading and thinking about the interview data to avoid the bias, then forming the ideas of themes. …”

Using network analysis for rapid, transparent, and rigorous thematic analysis: A case study of online distance learning

“…Therefore, the phase of choosing the unit of analysis and the initial stage of coding is extremely important. A researcher must choose a unit of analysis that contain one idea so that the codes assigned to it are connected in a logical way (Jamieson, 2016). Furthermore, the readers need to underline that thematic analysis is an iterative and reflective process (Nowell et al, 2017).…”

Delivering to 'that list': the challenges of working with learning outcomes

“…The rigour of the analytic process was supported by recursive analysis 21 and using memoing 22 to record analytical choices. Transparency of coding allowed decisions to be overt and open to scrutiny by other researchers (Table 1).…”

“…Peer review 22 was crucial to the rigour of the analysis as it allowed crystallisation 25 of the approach rationale and justification of the classification made in the analysis. When there was disagreement between researchers, the group reviewed the rationale, descriptors and their application, before reaching consensus.…”
