I wrote
ten self-teaching tutorials for NVivo 7, matching the
ten chapters of Handling
Qualitative Data. To get the most out of them, read
a chapter then work its tutorial. But - like the book -
the tutorials
stand by themselves. The book doesn't require that
readers are using any particular software (though it
does assume that most will use some computer program.
The tutorials can be used alone if you are confident
about how to handle qualitative data.
Some 6,000 people have downloaded these tutorials, and
very many teachers from countries worldwide have asked
permission to use them in courses.
You can work
in your own project, setting it up and getting started,
or use the sample data that comes with the software. All the details about help are in the
Introduction section of the tutorials.
You can use
them on the web from
Sage’s Resources page
for
Handling Qualitative Data.
Or
they can be directly downloaded in PDF from
here
as one PDF document (102
pages, 10.6 MB).
If you want to go on to your own
project, using these tutorials, you might be helped by
my Up and Running Handbook
- also free and downloadable.
These tutorials will shortly be
adapted to cover the new functions of NVivo 8.
