DAY 3 -
Today in class, we went over Computer Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis (CAQDAS) and the
approaches, types, issues related to the process. We learned when the world wide web began, which was in 1993. We also went over online communities, which consisted of ARPA (Advanced Research Project Agency) that was formed under the Dept. of Defense.
The instructional video is a project we must complete online where we are showing someone else how to do something related to our current role. It has to be 1-5 minutes and uploaded on Youtube.com. Some of the sites available are screenr.com and screencast-o-matic.com.
We went over qualitative vs. quantitative. Qualitative looks under the surface. Atlas.ti 7 is a software that codes data for text, video, audio, image formats. It focuses on analyzed material. Dr. Dunn suggested we journal well as we go because it adds our perspective that we need that can be used as analysis. Quantitative tests the results; uses frequency (how many times did they say this, that - in relation to qualitative data) to get data. Both are used to look for patterns of research.
We also went over the dissertation process, which was very helpful. He gave us the ins and outs of who we can be successful throughout the entire dissertation process. He went over misconceptions and misunderstanding of previous doctoral students. I am eager to get the dissertation process started, follow all steps accordingly, and finish my doctorate in a timely, successful manner. I am confident I will take each step as it comes and make changes based on my committee's recommendations.
Throughout the day, we went over WebQquests (Zunal.com)
