Week 6: Coding Flashcards
Coding
how you define what the data you are analyzing is about and parts of data are identified to assist with, labelling with critical thinking to link them and analyze them through fracturing data and disaggregating records
How To Code
searching and identifying data providing structure for data simplify the data to find relations more easily between data assist with abstract thinking discovering theme
Reasons for Coding
data looks different which offers new perspective
theoretical directives for interpretive structure
help organizing data
avoids inconsistencies
helps sort through the info
Topic Coding
gathering materials by topic to reflect on all different ways people discuss particular topics, seek patterns, develop dimensions to experiences, most common and most challenging
helps identify the material later and make it more accessible to analyzing data
splitting data into categories that has basic characteristics share
Descriptive Coding
people, places, site, and noun that where things are nominal to store things already known about the data to find knowledge about their demographics
Analytic Coding
development of concepts as you code more, putting a category aside and making a new coding categories
writing queries as memos
developing theories and categories theoretically
Open Coding
aims of open up the data and identifying concepts to fit into it
concepts to the observed data and phenomenon are attached during qualitative data analysis
Axial Coding
coding based around a topic
breaking down of core themes during qualitative data analysis
Purpose of Analytic Coding
making, celebrating, illustrating and developing categories theoretically
questioning the data about new ideas/codes and linking the data
purpose to alert to new message, explore, compare, and develop theory to establish significance and meaning
Memos
must be used to record descriptions of events, memory of vibes and contexts, raw data and ideas, can be reflective
