okay well hello everyone and thank you
for joining this session on an intro to
qualitative data analysis using taget
and call coder for anyone who doesn't
know my name is Kathleen Flynn and I'm
one of the science Librarians here at U
Albany and if you're wondering I have
altered the settings to disable
participant video and unmuting right now
just because I'm recording and that
makes it a little easier I've also
enabled close captioning so feel free to
hit the CC button at the bottom of your
Zoom screen if you'd like to see the live
live
transcript so the plan for today is I'll
show you two free qualitative data
analysis tools I'll start by demoing
taget and then we'll move on to qual
coder so tet and qual coder are free
qualitative data analysis tools and I
won't go into too much detail about
qualitative data analysis but I'll just
say a few things in case you're
wondering what kind of data analysis you
can do with these tools so to start with
qualitative data would be data that are
usually non-numerical so these data
aren't things that you would usually
count or measure and they tend to be
things like text or audio video probably
generated from interviews or surveys
focus groups Etc and qualitative coding
is where you'll analyze that data by
assigning codes or labels to parts of it
for instance text and those codes may
represent some important Concepts and
then you can later analyze those to
identify some categories or some themes
and depending on your research question
you may have codes already when you
begin coding or you may create them during
during
coding and as for software some common
features of qda software uh include
coding annotation transcription
Etc and here are some options of qda
software you've probably heard of some
of these
tools on the left here you have Atlas TI
and Max qda and Vivo and those aren't
free but they tend to be pretty robust
you could also do some coding and
Analysis with Excel or word and I'll
note that these first three tools here
they aren't currently available on any
public university computers such as
those in the libraries that I know of
some departmental computers may have
licenses to them I'm not sure you'd have
to investigate that but then there are
some free tools so we'll look at T and
qu coder you also have R coder that's an
r package package in R the statistical
programming language and then of course
you could have the free versions of um
the equivalent of The Office Products
you know Google office suite or Libra
office so let's get
started by looking at
tette so I'll paste the link in chat if you
you
want to follow along this is recorded so
don't worry about following along with
everything so tette is a free and open
source qualitative research tool I'm
starting with this tool because it's
very simple you'll see it's very user
friendly and it's used to do just some
basic coding of text and that's the key
limitation here with tette is
that as we see here you can only code
text here so you can import these file
types basically text files here PDFs
word docs plain text files HTML ebook uh
formats here and what you'll do you'll
import some text documents and then you
can create codes and tag that text with
those codes and then you can export your
codebook and the other files so teet is
a very robust but it's it's quicker and
less clunky than using word or Excel for
coding as we see on the homepage here it
could be used in a browser by going here
to t.org or you could download it and um
install and you can run it locally on
your computer you could also run it on
your own server um if you do it on your
own computer it might be a little more
secure but using it on a local machine
will make it slightly more difficult to
collaborate with others and we'll see
that so we're going to use it on their
server so to do that you'll have to
create a free and again you don't have
to follow along don't worry too much
about that but I'll click try out Ted on
our own server so here you would
register for a free account if you don't
in and then from here when you have
documents you don't have to worry about the
the
language uh of the text in your document
but if you'd like to change the language
the interface here you could go up to
account and
settings and then you have language here
they have some options and they're
adding more as um they get help with
adding them because this is a free and
open source uh tool so if you'd like to
help them out feel free to contact
them so then on the homepage here you
have a few options you can import a
project and this is what you might do if
you've installed tat locally on your
computer you may
uh import
um on another computer maybe if you've
shared it with someone you're trying to
collaborate you could send them the file
and they can import it on um their own
computer but it's easier to do it if
you're in the server which we'll see
later you can also create a new project
which we'll do in a second and then you
can see existing projects are
here so we'll create a new
project and I'll follow this trend here
I I get tutorial three and you can give
uh this is a test project for a tutorial
and I'll hit
create and from here we have to add
documents so there's a button here add a
document now we saw earlier um the file
types that are allowed basically text
files so I have one it's Thomas Payne's
common sense I found the full text it's
in the public domain I found it on the
prject Gutenberg site so it's just a
plain text
file so I have it
here and then I could give it a
name I could call it common sense I
want
import so now we see our document here
in the middle and I will say sometimes
during the conversion process the
formatting can get a little changed so
this is just a test so it this text
doesn't matter so it's fine but be aware
of that so we see here uh our text and
we can start to code so to do that I
simply just highlight some text
and you'll notice that this little
button pops up new highlight and if I click
click
that and by default in taget it has this
interesting tag here already so you
could assign that you could create your
own for this first one we'll just assign
the interesting tag and then I'd hit
save and close and we see that it's
highlighted now in yellow now in tette I
believe I don't believe you can change
the color at the moment I think all of
your tags are going to be yellow Maybe
in a future update they'll change that
qu coder you can but in get here it's
just yellow there's also this little
backlight button here if you check this
you'll notice that it'll gray out the
other text and it's just showing you
your highlights some people like
that and then so right now we're in the
documents tab if I go to the highlights
one next to it I see here this
interesting tag that's the only one we
have right now but now there's a one
here because we have one highlight so I
could click this the the tag and it's
showing me that highlight and it's
telling me the file that it's in the the
document and the tag assigned I could
click see all highlights but we just
have the
one so let's go back and add some more
documents and I'll
just highlight this and I'll click new
highlight and now let's create a new one
so I'll click create a tag and I have
them here so let's call this
justification and I can give it a
description here maybe something
for independence from Great
Britain and I'll select yep save and
close so now that's highlighted and you
see it's also
yellow I could add some more so you can
have more than one tag assigned to a
highlight so I'll just highlight this
section click new
highlight uh let's make a new tag so
maybe I'll call this one government I'll say
say
it's role of government and I'll assign
that and I'll maybe also put interesting
there and then I'll just add a few more
so now let's go back to Highlights the
highlights Tab and we see here now I
have a
few uh the count here is increased for
each of these now you may sometimes have
to refresh the page sometimes the
changes aren't reflected right away but
this looks fine so if we go to say that interesting
interesting
uh tag here we see this one has two
assigned to it
it
and I could click see all highlights now
highlights now if you're
coding uh without having codes generated
already you may find that a code that
you're using isn't ideal anymore you may
want to rename it so you could click
edit you could rename it you could
delete it and you can merge them so
let's say I want to merge the
justification and the interesting uh
tags here I could go to edit I could say
merge let's say I want to merge
interesting into justification so right
now they each have two tags so I'll merge
merge
refresh so now justification has for and
happened you can also make a hierarchy
in your tags for instance maybe here I
have one for government maybe I want one
for monarchies so I could create a tag
here as
well and I already have it here so what
you do I want government to be
the the higher tier there and I want
monarchy under it so I just need any
kind of punctuation in between so here I
have government. monarchy so this be
below government in the
hierarchy and then I created it I can go
back to my
document and I see here let's see King of
of
England so I can apply
highlights if I go to government Which
is higher up in that hierarchy you see
that I'm seeing the lower tag as well
I'm seeing both but if I go just to that
government. monarchy I'm just seeing that
that
one so if you're ready to start
exporting these files so you can analyze
them some more you have some options you
can export the whole document that you
were tagging here up in the right hand
corner here you see export this view I
HTML so I see that it's showing me the
highlights and it's showing me the the tags
tags
the uh other formats here will look the
same you also could uh export your
highlights so if I go to Highlights and
see all highlights again I have this
export this view button and I have um
some of those same file types but I also
second so this is what that looks like
so maybe I want to analyze this they
Excel and then I could ex uh export the
whole project so we talked about that if
I go over here to project info we talked
about that in the beginning where you
could um share your project so here you
could export it you also see here this
is how you would collaborate if you're
working in a server here like we are
right now we're working in their server
so we could manage collaborators so I
again I have to have a free taget
account so this is my username if you
know somebody else's username you could
put it here and then you could specify
what permissions you want them to have
so say if it's a student in a lab you
might want them to be able to highlight
uh and tag maybe you don't want them to
be able to delete any any files
documents or projects so you can do
that you can also export your codebook
here so that would be your your tags so
if I export this I have a few options
that we've seen but I also have this
qdc format so this is a format you could
use to import this into other um
qualitative data analysis software for
instance some something like inv Vivo so
CSV and when I look at it showing me the
tags the description and the number of
highlights but then uh just to show you
what it looks like I'm going to import one
one
I'll I have a different one saved here
I'll just go to
uh I'll just delete
project so if I go to Project info here
I can import a code book and we see here
that it only wants CSV for
CSV and then when I click review it's
showing me the tags that I had so I can
select which ones I want to import and
I'll say create
tags then I can go to Highlights to
check them out so I see that they've
been imported it also of course has this
interesting tag which is there by
default from tette but I could delete
tag so that's a quick demo of taget as
you saw it's pretty userfriendly they
have a nice guide here that you can
refer back to if you get
stuck so let's move on to qu coder
robust and I'll put a link for the qu
coder page and chat and again it could
be a little difficult to get everything
installed so don't worry about following
anything so qual coder just like tette
it's a free open source um software let
me try
to make that a little bigger so you can
see uh now to get as we saw it could be
used in a browser or you can install it
on a local machine qual coder can also
be downloaded via their GitHub page
we'll see in a second here in the
download tab and then you would just run
the executable file
so tet as we saw it's nice if you just
want to code some text but a benefit
here of qual coder is that you can code
text images video and
audio and if you want to code audio or
video though you will have to also
install VLC media player here which is also
also
free and uh qual coder also has uh the
capabilities to um transcribe audio and
video but to do that you also have to
have have um another piece of free
see so I already have qual coder downloaded
downloaded
um now one downside of of qual coder is
that you can't collaborate with another
user in real time however you can work
on the same project um and as we see
here qu coder supports this open
standard this RFI qda standard so you
could have some somebody uh share your
project and they could maybe import it
into um another qda software that
supports that could be uh proprietary as
well uh but let's go start look how you
would download and now in this download
tab I'm on a Windows machine and it's
easiest when you're on Windows um we see
here here the links if you want to
install VLC and this is what you would
also need if you want to transcribe
audio or video this ffmpeg software
um we'll take a look at that I haven't
installed this yet so we won't but you
can see what it looks like so to go to
their GitHub page you'd go
here now since I'm on Windows as I said
I would just go down to the bottom and I
just uh downloaded this executable file
now you may have to
specify uh give it permissions what I
had to do I had to once I had this
downloaded I right clicked it and went
to properties and I had to check this box
box
this unblock box and then apply and run
it again you may have that issue but
then you just run that uh that executable
executable
file now if you're not on Windows um
this GitHub page has a Wiki here and the
wiki has a lot of nice um instructions
here but under introduction you'll see
some installation uh instructions if
you're on a different operating system
because it could be a
little different
so I have qual coder opened up here I
just ran the the file there now the
first thing you'll notice is that it
looks less user
friendly when you open it up it may even
be really teeny the window you may have
to resize it I think I'll just make it
full screen here so we can see
everything uh when we open it up it
opens up on the action log so this will
show us the version we're using as well
as our settings and what we've done with
our our current project and as for
settings if you'd like to change them
you can go up to project and you go to
settings so I have a few options here I
can change that interface language here
I can change the font and the font size
here you can select how often you wanted
to back up your project uh which you may
want it to do often as we'll see if
you're doing any transcribing you can
set uh settings here for time format or
speaker format this code text Chunk size
setting here is if you have a really
large file you may want to specify um
the number of
characters that you'll have because uh
really big files can get make it a
little slow and laggy so you may want to
break it
up if you're into dark mode you can
change the style here or a different
background color once you make this
change though you'll have to restart for
it to
apply and then here's where you could do
some collab collaboration so remember
that qual coder doesn't allow real time
collaboration like other tools like
tette but you can create a profile here
for yourself so I have one it's already
it's telling me I'm the current coder
you could uh add yourself here and hit
apply so then if you're working on qual
Corder let's say it's downloaded on one
shared computer in a lab somebody else
could log in change go to their profile
do their coding saved under their
profile so you could do that
alternatively you could zip the folder
for your project which we'll see in a
second and you could share it with
collaborators so that then they could
machine so we'll go to uh starting a new
project so to do that you go to project
and create new
project so what it's doing here it's
going to create a folder so I already
have a couple here so let's call
this qu coder demo and it's just going
to save to my my desktop
here so let me find
it I hope you can see this so what it
did is it created a folder here on my
desktop because that's where I saved it
so this has my um file here for the
project and these folders they're empty
right now but as I populate this folder
in qu coder as I create files or import
them copies of them will go in this
folder so this is what you might zip and
send to somebody if you want to
collaborate and also if you uh open it
up and you want to open a project that's
to so for your project here up in the
project tab you could create a little
memo for your project some notes so
maybe you want to add some details about
your project um there a version maybe
who's working on it details like that so
you could do a memo for the whole
project and then at this point we can
start to add some files and some cases
and some attributes so to load some
files we go up here to the manage
menu and we have some options we'll
start with manage
files and it's blank we have nothing
here one thing we can do we could just
create a file right here so there's a
little uh pencil icon here I can create
text here is some example
text and then once I have this created
if I want to view it I could either
double click
it or there's a little eye icon here
it but I can also uh import files so
there's a button here next to that I icon
icon
or import file into the project folder
and so that folder that we just looked
at so what I'll be doing I'll just make
be making a copy putting a copy into
that folder so I have some folder uh
files here on my desktop I have a few I
have an image
file I have a an audio file now to
select multiple I'm on Windows um a
Windows PC so I'm hitting control I
think it'd be command on a Mac and then
I have these four transcript these are
ition interviews with students so I'll
select all of
them and I'll open them
up so from here again these are just
random files for this demo if I wanted
to change the name I could rightclick I
can do some things including renaming uh
and remember any changes you make here
these are just copies in that project
Originals uh we have this this memo
column here so these would be some notes
for yourself so maybe for this example
text file we made maybe that was a a
survey response from a student something
like that so I could double click here
um I could say this is a survey
response we have this um image here I
just double clicked that and this is a classroom
classroom
picture so maybe I want to add a memo here
here it's
Blackboard so now we can also have
attributes and these are just uh
variables that will describe they can
describe files cases which you'll see in
a second they can be numeric or
character um Fields so I can add some
attributes to these files here there's a
little plus icon here add
attribute we see here character and
numeric so maybe I want to know the
files so we see it added that column and
then just like how uh we did with memo
um I could add double click here to add
a source so maybe these I said these
transcripts were fictional student
interviews or surveys or whatever so I
student and then these columns here you
could change the sort you could filter a
little bit so if I I right click here I
could change the sort here maybe I just
want to look at uh files where the
source was a student so I could click
show this value and that limits it to
get back to all the files I could right
rows so I
imported those files but you may have
let's say you have a a survey you might
have a file with um cases and attributes
so maybe it's a survey or an interview
data so I have this
example spreadsheet here it's really
teeny this is fictional so these are
four those four student interviews and
it was Anonymous so they have an ID here
just one through four and I had their
major their class year so freshman
sophomore Etc and so I have some
attributes here and then I have cases so
each participant here is a Case Case
might be something else it could be an
event anything you're anything you may
want to apply files or or attributes to
so I can import this this file into qual
coder so to do
that I would go up to
manage and we've already looked at
manage CA uh files here but I have import
import
survey and then I have it right
here so this is um asking me what I want
to import we see it looks like what we
just saw and it's made some assumptions
here about
the the fields here it thinks the ID one
is numeric and the others are character
that's okay and it's asking me press
import now we don't see anything so if I
want to look at those attributes I can
go up to manage and manage
attributes so here we see remember when
we were in manage files we added that
one attribute source and it's assigned
to file so we see that here and then we
see these other two that we just
imported and they're assigned to case
because those cases were those
participants there so from here I could
delete some I could add another so maybe
I want one for Library
services and it's
character and I'll assign it to those
cases so now we have another here and I
could expand this see more we also have
another memo column here so if I want
some notes so let's see like class year
here that that field name's a little
here that these are freshman sophomore junior
senior
so we also imported those cases so let's
look at those so if we go back to manage
so we've looked at files and attributes
so here we have manage
cases and we see this looks like that uh
spreadsheet that we had um so we see
this new attribute we added to it
there's another memo column here but we
also see there's a
files column here so I can assign files
to a case in this case the cases are um
students participants and I have those
four transcript files um one for each of
these students so I could uh manually
add more cases here or import more but
uh let's assign some files so I can just
click here and it's showing me uh files
here that I've imported so again these
transcripts correspond to a case so I
could just uh click one and add selected
here so we did that here in the manage
cases uh window you could also do that
um in the manage files window so if I go
back to manage
files we see there is this case column
and it looks like now it's U remember
these were our cases the IDS looks like
it's they're assigned but if I wanted to
assign from here I could rightclick here
and assign case to file so you could do
the same thing in multiple windows
here uh in the manage uh menu here you
may have also seen manage journals you
can have journals in qual coder so you
may want to keep track of your
activities different coders could have
different journals so I can create one
icon I'll call it November
2023 um this is a
journal for the qual coder
tutorial and then you see little search
box here so if I want to
search for a term I could enter term and
then these little uh arrows here I can
search within here so you see it's
matching if I click this um check this
box here I can search within all
journals I just have the one but it
would go through um the other journals
and you can also export these journals
that uh so now one of the benefits of
qual coder um is the ability to work
with audio or video files so to use
these features as we as we saw you need
to have that free software VLC installed
and if you want to do transcription
you'll have to have that ffmpeg
installed as well um and the links to
those as we saw in in the qual coder web
page if you go to their um GitHub you
can see the links there so I have a a
brief audio file
here and let's
see Gentlemen please fasten your seat
belts we are expecting some
turbulence so this file you notice when
I imported it it
created automatically this little blank
text file associated with it so this is
for that that
transcript so I could just populate I
could manually do it here or in the
audio file here I could added here so if
you want uh to use they have some tools
here with this little gear icon they uh
you could use some online speech text
Services here that they are connected to
but again you need that FF EG installed
which I don't have installed but you
could try these and then you you
probably have to clean it up a bit or
you could do it manually here um and
they have some shortcuts here so um like control
control
n you could add speaker names and then
to add it it's control
one you have control t
t
for uh Tim stamp so you have some
also we'll just add some text here so we have
have
something uh so you could do that
yourself so that's transcription you can
play around with that on your own if you're
you're
interested uh but let's start coding
so uh remember with taget all the codes
be yellow here in qual coder there'll be
uh different colors and you can change
the colors and the color scheme but you
could also uh pick one that's color
blind safe so if you go up
to the coding menu up here and you'll
see color
scheme so we don't see any codes here
yet but we see here the perspective it's
normal vision and but down here at the
bottom you can change perspective Ive so
you'll Watch What Happens here we have
red weak red blind and so on so that's
an option uh let's start coding though
we'll start with uh those text
interviews those transcripts so I'd go
up to coding at the top here this menu
and we see our options here we have text
images audio video and PDF um now the
PDF that's somewhat new uh the latest
version made that a little bit better
it's little experimental um still so we
won't look at coding PDFs today but
we'll start with
text here we have our text files um and
if we click one we can see the text here
on the right in the bottom this is where
our codes would be so we don't have any
here by default like tet had that
interesting tag by default so to create
some we would right click in this box
and I have add a new code so let's go to
that first transcript
so we we see here it's it's small uh so
I see here they're talking about spaces
here so I right click in this box and
add a new
code I'll call this one
spaces and then just like in taget I can
just drag I can highlight here some of
the text and then I'll click the spaces
tag and we notice that the count here
went up there's now one and it's the Tex
is highlighted I can keep going maybe I
want this one as well and I click it now it's
it's
two and then once I have these tags if I
hover over it it's telling it's telling
me what the the assigned code is here if
I rightclick it I can unmark it I can
make a memo I could designate it as
important and when I do that you see it
makes it bold but I can
also uh hit there's a button down here a
little star button in the lower left
corner and this will toggle on and off
showing those important flagged uh tags
there so let's look at the next transcript
transcript
here so for this one I see you're
talking about services and resources
here so I'll add some more tags here so
I go back and I rightclick add a new
services and I'll have
resources and you see here there are
different colors if I wanted to change
these I could rightclick them I could
rename delete so on but also change the
color so I'll add some more here maybe
this we have a 247 chat feature and then
I'll click
services and then they talk about
resources uh I could add memos here as
we see so maybe for resources we saw
that when I right-clicked it could add a
memo here maybe I want to specify these
are Collections
and Equipment
Etc so you can have memos All Over You
could also have categories for these
codes so we saw that here when you were
right clicking here there's add a new
category so maybe I want one
one
libraries and now to add uh codes to it
either I could click it right cck uh
right click it and add codes to it or I
could drag and drop my existing ones
into it and we see it's starting to
populate and then it's within this
category I could also merge codes um
same way by dragging and dropping into
it so let's say with this articles text
here maybe I initially had a a code
called articles and then I wanted to
make it resources so let's I'll make a new
new
one called
articles and that color is not good so
I'll right click and I'll change that
color maybe I'll make this one
yellow and then if I wanted to merge I
would just drag and drop it into
resources and it's asking me here that
font's really small but it's ask me if I
want to merge articles into resources I
say yes so we didn't have anything
tagged with that so nothing changed but
you get the
idea you also have a search uh box here
so I want to search for the term Library
here I'd use these buttons and it's
matching I can make it case sensitive by
checking this box or search within all
the files by checking that
one you can also do some Auto coding in
qual coder so you see these buttons here
the little wands these are for auto
coding I won't do anything now but what
you would do you would select the the
code you want and then you'd select
which auto code option you want and
let's say I wanted to Def find the word
Library everywhere and code it with
spaces so I could do
that uh and you you see there is this
undo Auto coding button I think that's
the only magical undo button in qual
coder unfortunately your other options
we've already seen if you wanted to undo
a a Mark here you could rightclick it and
and
unmark there is this x button here if
you want to delete all codes by this
coder from this file otherwise you could
just upload the the file again and start
fresh but I don't think there's another
magical un undo button so that when we
first looked at the settings they're
backing up is important and remember
again you're not editing your original
files but just be careful and I hope in
the future maybe they add a a different undo
undo
button so we looked at that audio file
we had so here's that transcript that we
made so we could code this right here so
let's say I wanted a
a new code I'm right clicking maybe one called
Safety so I
could click that I could do it right
here but I also could uh code a little
bit within that audio file so if I go up
to coding and code audio
video so here we have that file and what
I could do is I could create little
segments within it and code those so I
I'll click Start
segment ladies and Gentlemen please
fasten your seat belts and then I could
hit n segment and then I could go to my
codes and I could rightclick one and you
see assign segment to
code and now it's coded this little
segment which I could then rightclick I
could have again memos and delete it and
Etc so I also had that one image file so
let's go back to
coding so we've looked at everything
here except uh image and we won't look
at PDFs today so code image and I'll
click it you may need to change your
window here so you can see
more resize it so we have this uh image
of a classroom so maybe I want to note
we have some technology here so we'll go
code now to add these I would click the
code that I want and then I would drag
over highlight what I want and now what
hard to see with the green but you can
see the the mark there and if I hover
over it it's telling me it's um uh
tagged with that technology tag and I'm the
the
coder and if I rightclick in that box I
could again add a memo I could unmark it
I can make it an important Mark and that
little star button that we used before
is right here so if I toggle it now we
just have the one so it's not exciting
but I could add another let's say I want a
Furniture code
here so I've got that so then if I
toggle this button we see it's showing
me the ones marked is
important I can't export this so right
here there's a button to export this
image as an
HTML and it's going to want to save
it saved it to my desktop here so here
we see the memo I had added here are
those tags and if I hover it's showing
there uh the the these export buttons
you'll see those in the other um windows
we were in as well
so now uh we looked at export for here
but you may want to make some reports
and Export those um quad coder has a lot
of nice reports so let's go to the
reports menu here so we'll look at the
first one here coding
reports so this one will um look at how
the codes were applied so we see here
these are our files these are those
cases we had here are our codes I can
select one or or more than one if I hold
control here I'm getting multiple I
could just drag with the ones that I
want I could also write click and select
that way so I'll just select all of them
and all of the codes and to just run a
basic Report with the files and the and
the codes here there's a little gear
icon here that's the search so I just
run that so it's showing me uh those
codes and the file and the coder
if I right click for view here I can do
some things including View and context
so here's the whole
image with text it would show me some
more text
around that tag if I wanted to see that
context right here in the report we see
a little box I could check here and then
I could rerun the
report so now I have that here if I just
wanted to see the those that we flagged
as important and I could rerun the
report and then the statistics
one so it's showing me uh the count by
code here it's also count within a a
file and the percentage of that file
with the
code we could also search um a report
with just some text so maybe I
want to find the the phrase quiet
um that
file I could also um filter by some of
those attributes so the button here is
this little button
here so we see our attributes here now
remember I had um classier so maybe I
just want to look at the The Freshman
files so I could say maybe equals
this and then when I run the report
again I have to select uh my
files so this was the the transcript
attribute and to remove that I can go
clear uh I can also have a little Matrix
here with these so let's say I'll
highlight all of the the files again and
all the cases highlight everything here
these are my options so let's try codes by
by
case then I'll run this so we didn't do
a lot of coding so this isn't terribly
exciting but we see here are four cases
and these were our uh codes and so we
can see it arranged this way and here it
is arranged the usual way and of course
from here we see you can export all of
formats uh so that's this basic coding
reports um let's go back up to reports
so another one we have is coding
comparison so with coders here it's just
me right now but if you had multiple
profiles you could compare them uh how
much they
agree we also have uh code frequencies
reports these are what you to expect the
the frequencies and of course you can
export this
the file and code summaries those are um
just some basic info then I wanted to
look finally at graphs here at um
charts so we have a few options here you
can have pie charts bar Sunburst tree
Maps heat
maps you can filter a number of ways
here the coder the files category
Etc um so let's look at a pie chart here
and I'll do code frequency now when I
click here it's just going to
automatically create it so I'm not I'm
not doing anything
else so here's that pie chart um if you
wanted to save this as an image up here
in the corner you can download this as
an image
file you could also check this box if
you wanted to save that HTML file when it
it
map and again we didn't do much so this
exciting so that's um there are some
other reports other things you can do
but that's a
basic uh overview of qual coder um I
hope you have enough to continue on your
own as I said qual coder has a lot of
nice uh instructions here on their Wiki
from on their GitHub um I can go into
more details with a lot of those those
reports that we were looking
at so we have a little time for some
questions but feel free to contact me
with any other questions and thank you
