With numerous approaches to choose from, knowing where to start when doing qualitative data analysis (QDA) can be a challenge. This book gives you direction with an accessible and thorough introduction to nine different approaches to QDA, written by a multi-disciplinary team with years of experience teaching and analysing data using these methods.

With a clear focus on the 'how to' of QDA, each chapter includes:
* Step-by-step descriptions of how to apply each approach in your research
* Online and in-text activities to help you practice your skills
* Annotated reading lists so you can dig deeper into key topics
* Case studies from a range of disciplines so you can see how each approach works in practice.

Reviews for Qualitative Data Analysis: Key Approaches

This book is to be applauded. Not only does it introduce students to different forms of qualitative analysis, it also helps them choose amongst these and put them into practice. This is all too rare. -- Martyn Hammersley
