Collaborative qualitative data session

2020.09.22 | Anne-Mette Pedersen

Date	Thu 10 Jun
Time	13:00 — 15:00
Location	Meeting Room 1485-316 and online on zoom Meeting ID 640 972 8888

A growing group of IMC researchers does ethnographic and other qualitative research. With Open your data, we wish to open up a shared analytical space where we discuss our data problems and collaboratively support analytical processes in the individual projects. Hence, this new IMC initiative establishes a qualitative data group that will meet monthly to work on data problems and foster curious reflection between IMC affiliated research projects.

Each month will feature one researcher to present a data problem and a piece of data for the group to analyze. Only the presenting researcher will need to prepare – everyone else just shows up on time, curious and ready to share their reflections and discuss ideas for the analysis.

Outline for the meeting:

OYD is an opportunity to get interdisciplinary perspectives on your data and to learn how your colleagues understand your approach and your analysis.
