Die Durchführung unserer praxisnahen Lehrveranstaltung beruht auf dem Verständnis, dass wir die Grounded-Theory-Methodology (GTM) als ein Handwerk ansehen, das in wesentlichen Anteilen lehrbar ist. Der erfolgreiche Aneignungsprozess bedarf des Kennens, Verstehens und Einübens der verfahrenstechnischen Schritte dieses Handwerks. In gleichem Maße ist es wichtig, Räume für die Entwicklung von reflexiven und analytischen Kompetenzen zu erhalten. Die Verfolgung eines Forschungsanliegens in der Lehre hilft, das Verständnis von GTM zu vertiefen, und bietet zugleich ein Übungs- und Reflexionsfeld. Dabei ist es uns wichtig, den Fokus auf die Lernprozesse der Studierenden zu legen und aktivitäts- und anwendungsorientierte Arbeitsformen gegenüber einem reinen Vermittlungslernen zu ermöglichen. Die Passung zwischen GTM und ATLAS.ti macht es möglich, die Nutzung der Software als Unterstützung der eigenen Datenanalyse zu erfahren. The implementation of our hands-on seminar is based on the understanding of grounded theory methodology (GTM) as a craft that can be taught to a great extent. The successful learning process requires knowing, understanding and practising the procedural steps of this craft. It is also important to open up spaces for the development of reflexive and analytical competences. Having an orientation toward a research project within the teaching-learning process assists in deepening the understanding of GTM and provides a scope for practise and reflection at the same time. It is important for us to retain the student-centred nature of the teaching-learning process to enable active and praxis-oriented student engagement instead of focusing on the transmission of factual knowledge. The structural fit that exists between GTM and ATLAS.ti allows students to experience the software as a support in the analyses of their own data. La implementación de nuestro seminario \"a mano\" se basa en el entendimiento de la metodología de teoría fundamentada (MTF) como una habilidad que puede ser enseñado en gran medida. El proceso de aprendizaje exitoso requiere saber, entender y practicar los pasos de procedimiento de esta habilidad. Tambien es importante abrir espacios para el desarollo de competencias reflexivas y analíticas. Tener una orientación hacia un proyecto de investigación en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje contribuye a mejorar el entendimiento de la MTF y brinda un campo para la práctica y la reflexión al mismo tiempo. Es importante para nosotros mantener la naturaleza del proceso de aprendizaje y enseñanza centrado en los estudiantes para posibilitar el involucramiento estudiantil activo y con orientación práctica en vez de concentrarnos a la transmisión de conocimientos factuales. El ajuste estructural entre MTF y ATLAS.ti permite a los estudiantes tener el software como un apoyo para el análisis de sus propios datos.

Computer assisted qualitative data ana­lysis software (CAQDAS) is frequently described as a tool that can be used for \"qualitative research\" in general, with qualitative analysis treated as a \"catch-all\" homogeneous category. Few studies have detailed its use within specific methods, and even fewer have appraised its value for discourse analysis (DA). While some briefly comment that CAQDAS has technical limitations for discourse analysis, in general, the topic as a whole is given scant attention. Our aim is to investigate whether this limited interest in CAQDAS as a qualitative tool amongst discourse analysts, and in DA as a research method amongst CAQDAS users, is prac­tically based; due to an uncertainty about research methods, including DA; or because of method­ol­ogical incompatibilities. In order to address these questions, this study is based not only on a review of the literature on CAQDAS and on DA, but also on our own experience as discourse analysts put­ting some of the main CAQDAS to the test in a media analysis of news texts.

The increasing popularity of Extensible Markup Language (XML) and the availability of software capable of reading and editing XML documents present opportunities for Qualitative Data Analysis (QDA) facilities to be incorporated into \"groupware\" applications such as collaborative workspaces and \"document bases\", and to be made available across networks both within organisations and across the Internet. Collaborative systems have, in the past, characteristically, been geared to retrieve and present whole documents, and while annotation and discussion of documents has been possible within such systems, the \"pencil-level\" analysis commonplace in CAQDAS (Computer Assisted Qualitative Data Analysis Software) has been lacking. XML, when combined with a scripting language such as Perl, can be used to offer basic QDA functionality--retrieval by text and codes, attachment of memos to text fragments, and the generation of summary data--via a standard web-browser.

This handbook provides a state-of-the-art synthesis of conceptual, measurement, and analytical issues regarding learning strategies and strategic processing. Contributions by educational psychology experts present the clearest-yet definition of this essential and quickly evolving component of numerous theoretical frameworks that operate across academic domains. This volume addresses the most current research and theory on the nature of strategies and performance, mechanisms for unearthing individuals' strategic behaviors, and both long-established and emerging techniques for data analysis and interpretation.
