Assignment 3a: Analysis of Data
Due Jul 23 by 11:59pm Points 100 Submitting a file upload
Introduction

Similar to the data collection assignment, each student will have unique documentation related to his or her data analysis.

Instructions

Please upload a report produced by your data analysis program. You will likely need to copy/paste the output into a Word document so that your Mentor can read it.

No written narrative is needed for this assignment, just the output of data analysis from MaxQDA (Links to an external site.) (or your software of choice) copied/pasted into a Word document.

Due Saturday of Week Twelve.

Module Three Overview
Module Three includes Weeks Nine through Twelve
Introduction
In this module, you will analyze the data you collected and write a draft of Chapter 4, which comprises your study’s findings. Remember that all CIU doctoral students are required to use a data analysis software program to assist in analyzing your data.

For qualitative research, and case study specifically, we recommend MaxQDA (Links to an external site.) software. See Week 1 for additional software options.

Once your data are analyzed, you may begin writing Chapter 4. The most important thing to remember about Chapter 4 is that you are reporting the findings, not drawing conclusions. Your conclusions will come in Chapter 5. Your Mentor needs to give continual feedback throughout this chapter, so be sure to set up regular meetings with your Mentor so that you can gain needed insight.

Learning Objectives

By the end of this module, students will have analyzed the data collected.
