Date: Wednesday, October 23
Time: noon – 3 p.m. EST
Track: Workshop, Track 4
Room: Palladian
First-hand accounts from students and faculty served by ATE projects can lend powerful evidence of impact. Many find evaluations most credible when numbers and stories are combined. However, qualitative analysis can feel time-consuming and nearly impossible on smaller evaluation budgets. In this workshop, participants will learn about methods for rapid qualitative analysis, practice different coding techniques, and discuss the use of technology such as AI to make qualitative analysis more efficient and meaningful. This interactive workshop is designed for ATE evaluators, PIs, and project staff looking to integrate qualitative methods into low-resourced evaluations.
