Social media is often seen by researchers as a treasure trove of naturally occurring data. Research-based on the analysis of social media data has become very popular in recent decades. Various tools can be used to automatically collect data from social media such as Twitter and Youtube, manually or automatically encode it, analyse it at different scales and display the results in different types of figures and tables. One such tool is the increasingly popular MAXQDA software, which is used worldwide for qualitative and mixed-methods research. In this training, you will learn about and practice extracting (automated), coding (automated and traditional), analysing and displaying data from social media. We recommend that you take the "Qualitative data analysis with MAXQDA: introductory level" training beforehand.
Import data from Twitter and Youtube and prepare it for analysis. Apply data analysis techniques such as content and thematic analysis, etc. Use MAXQDA visual tools to display data and produce reports.
