As of today (15th of August), QSR international have released a computer based software handling numerous, unorganized data such as interviews, pictures, sounds, audio files. These various types of data need to be organized to be analyzed. Regardless of numbers of participants, diverse data need to be managed economically to draw valid results. At this point, working with computer assisted qualitative data is an obligation not an option. This presentation focuses on critical elements of NVivo R1 in terms of ameliorating the qualitative data analysis as well as writing up. In line with QSR’s claim, functions introduced in this presentation will be connected with the previous research work in an effort to link between theory and practice of computer assisted qualitative data analysis. Specifically, studies on written corrective feedback using NVivo will be addressed, and the direction for future research will be sought.
