Media and digital literacies in Canadian teacher educators’ open educational practices: A post-intentional phenomenology

CAQDAS - glossary item

Computer assisted qualitative data analysis software (CAQDAS) are technologies that allow for the addition of codes, comments, memos, visualization, and generation of theories from portions of files such as transcripts, images, audio, video and other forms of qualitative data (Saldaña & Omasta, 2018). CAQDAS can also be applied to the analysis of research literature to support the formulation of the literature review. The software does not do the coding for the researcher, but "efficiently stores, organizes, manages, and reconfigures data to enable human analytic reflection" (Saldaña & Omasta, 2018, p. 268). Saldaña and Omasta (2018) provide a list of major CAQDAS software, include NVivo which was used for this research (page 268-269).
