Interviews are often seen as a quick, cheap, and seemingly low-stress
data collection method, but once students obtain data, they can be
overwhelmed at the amount of information they have to manage, sort, and
analyse, even if they only have a few participant responses.
There are plenty of books on data management, coding, and analysis, but
no student has time to read and internalize this much detail if a
deadline is looming. Use Your Interview Data takes students through
the essentials of managing, coding, and interpreting interview data so
they have the overview needed to negotiate their data systematically and
ensure they are not marked down for haphazard or incomplete
interpretation. This Little Quick Fix provides students with the
understanding and skills they need to manage, sort and analyse their
interview data. Helen Kara's overview enables students to negotiate
their data systematically and give a complete interpretation for their
research method assignment, essay or project.
