Iterative Theory Building and Code Refinement using HyperRESEARCH

Date & Time: Thursday, April 24, 2014 at 3:00 PM Eastern Time (Noon Pacific Time)

Prerequisite: Introduction to Qualitative Analysis using HyperRESEARCH (available as free video training at http://www.researchware.com/support/online-training.html)

Abstract: Researchware will host an online workshop (webinar) surrounding the use of HyperRESEARCH to conduct code refinement and execute theory building practices. Our webinar is designed for individuals who are familiar with basic code and retrieve qualitative analysis using HyperRESEARCH through experience, or by having taken our “Introduction to Qualitative Analysis using HyperRESEARCH” webinar. We encourage open discussion from participants (via concurrent text chat), and ample opportunity to ask questions and receive answers will be provided throughout the webinar.

Topics: This webinar will present an iterative model for combining theory building with code review and refinement techniques to build supporting evidence for emerging themes in one’s research data.

Techniques illustrated using HyperRESEARCH include: initial theory building using HyperRESEARCH’s unique inferencing tool for theory building; code diagraming for relationship visualization, techniques for finding and autocoding themes in your source data, and iteratively testing your theory for coding refinement and validation using HyperRESEARCH's unique Theory Builder.
