New for 2023! Dive into the depths of completed qualitative research projects with our Project Dive sessions. In this session a guest speaker will share their intriguing journey through completed projects. Discover what kind of data they worked with, how they analysed it, what they found, and how it got written up.

Get a behind-the-scenes look into the murkier aspects, the bits that didn’t go so well, aspects that weren’t covered in the published accounts, and challenges encountered along the way. We will connect the exploration of each project to the Qual Analysis @ UTS overarching ideas and ways of understanding qualitative analysis, and each Project Dive will touch upon one of the new themes for 2023: tales of the unexpected – highlighting how researchers respond to issues and opportunities that arise but were not anticipated.

In this workshop presented by Dr Giedre Kligyte, TD School:

Ever wondered whether your rich qualitative data set could lead to more than just a couple of research papers? Join this session to explore a case study of a collaborative research project at TD School, where a team of 10 researchers developed not just 1 or 2, but 6-7 ideas for research papers through a process of collective analysis of a shared qualitative data set. Using this case study, we’ll discuss how we might frame papers for different audiences / research communities to develop a program of research and make the most of the data we already have.

This is the seventh workshop in the Qualitative Data Analysis series for 2023, led by Dr Nick Hopwood and Dr Erin Turbitt. It will be held both online and in-person, and it may be recorded.
