Transcript of Kazuya Sakai Graduate Student Dept. of CSSE, Auburn University Ch 8.6 Using Theoretical Framework.

  • 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
