Applies knowledge from Part 1 mini-methods talk by hands-on manual coding an interview transcript.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES: Participants [1] do analytical coding of an interview transcript, [2] experience collaborative coding (wherein multiple researchers code the same data then compare the common and divergent themes found in the data), and [3] explore strengths/challenges of subjectivity and differential interpretation in the qualitative coding process.
NOTE: The interviewee gave permission to share their interview transcript for the purposes of teaching/learning (but not reuse for research purposes).
