Get More from Your Language Data

In today’s research landscape, qualitative research often involves language data.  This can be from interviews, focus groups, conversations, personal narratives, diaries, or open responses to questionnaires.

Are you a qualitative researcher or a principal investigator on a qualitative research project collecting language data? Are you and your research team satisfied that you are getting the most out of it?

• Frustrated with work that seems to describe what participants have said?

• Thinking about supplementing or moving beyond thematic coding to dig more deeply into the data?

• Curious about patterns of language in your data and what they might reveal?

• Want to explore avenues to interdisciplinary research through deeper engagement with linguistic approaches to analysis?

Where other qualitative data workshops may concentrate on navigating software and data management systems, I get you back in touch with your data by introducing specialist skills in language analysis. With 30 years’ experience analysing language as an academic, a proven publication record, and long familiarity with research in education and the social sciences, I can help you and your team find more in and do more with your language data, so that you can work on achieving better outcomes for your participants.
