“Tapping Social Media Data with NCapture and NVivo” will be offered 1:30-3:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 19, on Zoom. This presentation provides an overview of the NCapture browser add-on (to Google Chrome) as a tool for extracting information from social media platforms and will explore how the extracted data is analyzed using NVivo 12 Plus / NVivo, a qualitative and mixed methods data analysis tool. (The NVivo for Mac now enables this functionality as well.)
“Exploring Advanced Features of Qualtrics” is scheduled 1:30–3:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 5, online on Zoom. All students, faculty, and staff who use this research suite are welcome to attend.
The Qualtrics tool that powers K-State Survey is one of the most sophisticated online survey and research tools on the market. At K-State, it is used for research, teaching assessment, event registration, large-scale policy compliance trainings, late TEVAL evaluations, and more. There is also an integration from Qualtrics to NVivo for direct access to online survey data for qualitative and mixed methods analysis.
An “Intro to NVivo” training is scheduled from 1:30-3:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 29, for all faculty, graduate students, and staff who may be using this qualitative (and mixed methods, multimethods) data analysis tool. This session will occur on Zoom.
This presentation, which covers NVivo 12 Plus / NVivo (newest) basics, will address the following:
The basic parts of the NVivo 12 Plus (or NVivo) interface
How to start and structure a research project (including a team project)
How to set up a project around a base language (Chinese/PRC, English/US, English/UK, French, German, Japanese, Portuguese/Brazil, and Spanish
How to ingest various multimedia file types (and curate heterogeneous and semi-structured digital data and digitized contents)
How to ingest some social media contents
How to begin manual and/or automated coding various media file types
How to run data queries in the tool and analyze resulting data visualizations (word clouds, word trees, matrices, geographical maps, bar charts, and others)
Are you a master’s or doctoral student? If so, it is likely that you will be conducting research as part of your studies. At some point, you may be writing a thesis, report, or dissertation to record your work to share with the profession and the world. K-State has made available templates (in Microsoft Word and LaTeX) for students to use, in order to ensure that they include all required information in the proper formatting.
“Getting Started with ETDR Templates” is an online training on Zoom from 1 – 2:30 p.m., Monday, Oct. 25.
“Using LIWC2015 for Computational Linguistic Analysis” will be presented from 1:30-3:30 p.m., Friday, Oct. 15, via Zoom. (Link will not be live until the event.)
The Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count (LIWC) tool enables users to conduct computational linguistic analyses on single texts, collections of texts, and text corpora, in order to better understand the latent data.
Are you a graduate student who uses digital imagery (photos, data visualizations, diagrams, and others) in a master’s thesis, master’s report, or doctoral dissertation (in an ETDR application)? Are you a faculty or staff member who integrates digital visuals into slideshows, an imageset, or videos?
Join this “Intro to Adobe Photoshop” session on Oct. 1 (Fri.), from 1:30 – 3:30 p.m. on Zoom. This session introduces Adobe Photoshop 2021 as the leading software for editing and creating raster images (although it can output vector ones, too). This session will introduce the general graphical user interface (GUI) for this software. Then, it covers some basic uses and shows some walk-throughs of work sequences.
