Qualitative data analysis software programs can be valuable tools for organizing research sources for a literature review. This workshop will demonstrate techniques for organizing and analyzing literature in the software program MAXQDA, though the strategies will be relevant to other qualitative data analysis tools like NVivo or Atlas.ti.
MAXQDA is a robust software for analyzing qualitative data, including text, media, and survey data. The software is free for all University of Illinois users via a license provided by Illinois Computes.
This workshop assumes basic knowledge of MAXQDA including importing data files, creating codes, and applying codes to text data. If you are new to MAXQDA, you may want to view the Introduction to MAXQDA materials before this workshop.
By the end of this workshop, we hope you'll be able to:
1) Export citation data from Zotero and import into MAXQDA
2) Use MAXQDA organizational features to categorize research sources
3) Use coding tools label relevant parts of research literature
4) Analyze coded data to develop your literature review
