- Slide 1
- Kazuya Sakai Graduate Student Dept. of CSSE, Auburn University Ch 8.6 Using Theoretical Framework
- Slide 2
- Theoretical frameworks for qualitative analysis Basing data analysis around theoretical frameworks provides further insight Frameworks Grounded Theory Distributed Cognition Activity Theory
- Slide 3
- Grounded Theory Aims to develop theory from systematic analysis of data Is based on categorization approach, called coding There are three level of coding Open coding Axial coding Selective coding
- Slide 4
- Open Coding Open coding is to identify categories
- Slide 5
- Axial Coding Axial coding is to flash out and link to subcategories 1. Major categories are hierarchically related to subcategories
- Slide 6
- Axial Coding (Cont.) 2. For each category, a researcher creates a description, called memo, to integrate as many of the categories and subcategories as possible
- Slide 7
- Selective coding Selective coding is to form theoretical scheme One category is chosen to be the core category, and relating all other category to that category
- Slide 8
- Distributed Cognition The people, environment, and artifacts are regarded as one cognitive system Used for analyzing collaborative work Focuses on information propagation and transformation
- Slide 9
- Example of Distributed Cognition Employee verification at Call Centers
- Slide 10
- Activity Theory Explains human behavior in terms of our practical activity with the world Provides a framework that focuses analysis around the concept of an activity and helps to identify tensions between the different elements of the system Two key models: one outlines what constitutes an activity; one models the mediating role of artifacts
- Slide 11
- Individual Model Activity can be found in motivations e.g., completing software project Action are performed to accomplish goals e.g., programming a module Action are made up of operations e.g., using operating command
- Slide 12
- Individual Model (Cont.) Activity can be action, and action can be operation e.g., a child learns alphabet A child learns how to control a pen A child controls a pen to spell words A student writes a book report
