In this workshop, we will explore the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within MAXQDA, a significant research software for qualitative data and mixed methods analysis. This workshop aims to empower researchers with the proficiency to utilize AI within MAXQDA, paving the way for a more streamlined and insightful research process. The workshop unfolds with a comprehensive overview of MAXQDA’s existing capabilities briefly, setting the stage for the introduction of AI and its game-changing applications in data analysis. Participants will then dive into hands-on exercises, navigating the integration of AI within MAXQDA. This includes a deep dive into features such as automated coding, suggested codes and subcodes, MAXQDA transcription, interactive document chat, and more. These exercises are designed to demonstrate how AI can significantly reduce manual coding time, enhance coding accuracy, and reveal hidden patterns within data, thereby enriching the overall analysis process. In conclusion, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to understand and experience the transformative potential of AI within MAXQDA. It invites researchers to embrace this technological advancement, which promises to enhance their research experience significantly, leading to more profound and impactful findings.
