This event replicates ISSR's June 13-15 NVivo for Mac and Windows workshop, in response to overwhelming demand. Seats are limited, we urge interested participants to register early.
Description:
This three-evening (12-hour) workshop will get you up and running with coding and analyzing your qualitative data in NVivo 12 for Mac and Windows.
The first day will focus on the basics: importing, organizing, and beginning to code your data (text documents, surveys, web pages, videos and audio). The second day will focus on analysis -- we will discuss the various types of queries and when to implement them. The third day, we'll discuss linking categorical data (e.g. demographic information) and how to effectively integrate it into your analyses.
Instructors: Eric Griffith and Erica Kowsz

He completed his dissertation fieldwork in central Mexico, focusing on the experiences of familial caregivers for people living with Alzheimer’s disease.

Erica Kowsz Dr. Erica Kowsz is a teacher and researcher, who loves mentoring students and faculty in research design and data analysis methods. After defending her dissertation in the Department of Anthropology at UMass Amherst in December 2021, she has taken on a new role as Assistant Director for Fellowships at Wesleyan University’s Fries Center for Global Studies, where she also teaches senior undergraduates pursuing the Center's Global Engagement Minor.
