PRE-CONFERENCE WORKSHOP
Meeting the software: an introduction to and comparison of the programs
Facilitators: Lyn and Tom Richards, QSR
International This informal half day introduction to the conference
provides an opportunity for those less familiar with the software to
see both programs demonstrated and learn from the developers how they
view the different functions and different uses of their products.
Those who are already skilled in
the software are welcome to attend to contribute their views and
experiences with the software and debate with Lyn and Tom the relative
advantages of N6 and NVivo in the teaching environment.
Topics will include:
• The different tool kits and the
ways they assist research
• The work styles and methods each best supports
• The learning curve for novices using either program
• What each won’t do and when it will matter
Workshop handbooks and
comparative summaries will be provided.
