  1. Using open online resources for learning and teaching qualitative analysis Graham R Gibbs, University of Huddersfield Colm Crowley, University of Greenwich

  2. Outline of Session • Part 1. What’s available • Key websites with teaching resources for qualitative methods. • Part 2. Hands on use of REQUALLO materials • Part 3. Discussion

  3. National Centre for Research Methods • Supported by ESRC • Reports, PowerPoints, audio and video of conference presentations. • E.g. Video from RMFestivals

  4. ESDS Qualidata

  5. Realities • ESRC/NCRM project • E.g. video resources • Toolkits

  6. Methods@Manchester • Lots of Camtasia recordings (slides and audio) of presentations. • Aimed at Postgraduates • Some video too. • E.g. video on Qual Res • Camtasia recordings of presentations

  7. You Tube and Vimeo • Video from around the world. • Variable quality and relevance. • Some famous faces (e.g. David Silverman, Barney Glaser, Alan Bryman) • Not the same amount of material as, say statistics • But good for CAQDAS (NVivo, Atlas.ti, MAXQDA).

  8. iTunes University YouTube University • iTunes • Hard to find content. No good metadata • Often shovelware • Open U has some material • YouTube University • Easier to find • E.g. The Phenomenological Perspective • Language and Discourse

  9. V-Resort • At University of Nottingham • Focus on education, but research methods of more general interest • Requires IE and Flash player.

  10. TQRMUL • TQRMUL Dataset Teaching Resources. • Audio and video of five interviews with undergraduate students on the subject of friendship. • Designed to enable both immediate play and download options. • Free to download and use. • Transcripts using Jeffersonian and Playscript conventions for each interview are also provided.

  11. RLOs and Jorum • RLO-CETL • What we did before Open Source • Not a lot in Qual Res. • Big issue is how to find them • Jorum– Jisc funded repository • Search is bad. No idea what resource is, need to look at each one. E.g. MANTRA

  12. CAQDAS Networking Project http://caqdas.soc.surrey.ac.uk/ • Practical support and training with software (NVivo, MAXQDA, ATLAS.ti etc.) • Advanced applications: ‘QUIC’

  13. Methodspace.com • A networking site for users of research methods • Create a profile (optional) • Be part of groups • Q&A section • Links to extensive resources • Methods-related events • Videos on methods

  14. Exploring Online Research Methods • Part of RESTORE • Resources • Self-study • Resources for learners • Resources for tutors • Mainly text based • Mainly O/L questionnaires, but some material on O/L interviewing.

  15. Methods.hud.ac.uk • Way of finding resources for research methods • Result of focus groups and online surveys • Reviews of resources • Search engine tailored to RM.

  16. http://onlineqda.hud.ac.uk/ • Learning materials • Tutorials • Video • External sources REQUALLO • Research project case studies

  17. Online QDA Two key resources • Text pages on how to undertake thematic based analysis • But there is some material on other approaches e.g. DA • Tutorials based on case studies • Video, audio/text and narratives

  18. Development of OnlineQDA • Action Research • Survey of potential users and interviews • Led to design of website • REQUALLO Case studies interviews • Identified issues of doing QDA • Writing narratives and producing video developed ideas of what could be produced.

  19. Hands on • 5 groups of 4-5 people • As per handout. • Use headphones when listening to audio or video • Questions are not taxing, just to get you focussed. There are no prizes!

  20. Discussion • What are your (resource) needs? • E.g. software choice, heterogeneous data types, getting started with software, moving analysis on, writing up. • How do you find resources? • Training courses, books, online, colleagues? • Form of resources • E.g. manuals, detailed but focussed instructions, video?

  21. Discussion of Online QDA resources • Usefulness for postgrad/researchers? • Usability - User interface, easy to find? Too long/short, needs more context? • Who could use - undergrads, postgrads, teachers? • Other resources needed
