Introduction to Atlas.ti Part 2 (Online)

This 1.5-hour course will be offered online only. Attendance is required as the course will not be recorded. 

This short course will focus on analysis features in ATLAS.ti (v. 23 for the PC), such as co-occurrence matrices, the query tool, and using the network view for relational code diagrams. We will also cover “smart” coding, setting global filters, and using ATLAS to analyze survey data. We will demonstrate how to merge projects and assess intercoder agreement. The instructional style will be demonstration, rather than in-class exercises, but an exercise handout will be provided for participants who would like to explore analysis features after the session.  

Please Note: “Introduction to Atlas.ti Part 1” will be offered 9/10/2024. Separate registration is required for Part 1.
