2026-03-25 09:34:35 UTC

are any figures needed?

2026-03-25 09:34:45 UTC

What does I1 mean in your research paper? P15, I1: Everybody’s been really interested… they’resaying‘oh, that’s cool’. The novelty helps in terms ofthe motivation.

2026-03-25 09:36:04 UTC

do we mention that we followed grounded theory?

2026-03-25 09:36:37 UTC

What are examples of themes? Is mixed emotions a theme?

2026-03-25 09:36:48 UTC

How many overarching themes should we be aiming for?

2026-03-25 09:37:39 UTC

A lot of the responses are either positive or negative or in the middle so can these be our 3 main themes?

When we quote participants can we write One participant said, "". or must we always only write participants in brackets?

2026-03-25 09:37:55 UTC

If we pick up on individual words and analyse that is that too close reading?

2026-03-25 09:40:57 UTC

how many initial codes should we have?

2026-03-25 11:39:06 UTC

how do we derive themes from the many codes we have?

2026-03-25 11:39:17 UTC

what are the maximum codes are we allowed to have and how specific do we have to code them? e.g. participant has mentioned AI is useful in brainstorming three times in their response, is it necessarily to highlight all of them?

2026-03-25 22:44:05 UTC

what is the difference between codes and themes, is 'positive view' a theme and 'efficient' is a code?

2026-03-25 22:45:54 UTC

Should we focus on the meaning of each individual sentence, or should we take into account the participant's overall view? e.g., if a participant expresses positive and negative ideas separately, is it better to code these respectively or interpret them as an overall ambivalent stance?

2026-03-25 23:07:12 UTC

multiple codes for one sentence

2026-03-25 23:48:54 UTC

Some sentences can be linked to multiple codes (e.g., views, usage, etc.). What should I do about this? Associating it with only one code or multiple codes?

How long should a coded text (chunk) be?

2026-03-26 01:43:47 UTC

The longer the coded text, the more general the code's idea becomes. The shorter the coded text, the more precise or detailed the code's idea becomes.

Is there a balance here? Or should I code flexibly (sometimes long, sometimes short)?

illustrative or analytic style?

2026-03-26 01:56:24 UTC

Should we adopt an illustrative or an analytic style when writing the lab report?

2026-03-26 10:16:49 UTC

What is the best way to choose our themes? Should we pick the ones that are the most common when we coded or the most interesting ones?

do we write it on a word document we make or will one be provided - like how we get lab report templates for psychological experimentation that we have to use because it has a title page etc

2026-03-26 10:19:23 UTC

Should everything be coded? How to deal with similar codes but still different?

2026-03-26 10:19:26 UTC

if our codes are 'negative' and 'positive' and then 'sub-codes' as let's say environment or overdependence (as u showed in the zoom lecture), what are we supposed to do with the ones that show mixed opinions. Should we create another broad code like 'mixed opinions/neutral'?

2026-03-26 10:24:12 UTC

Should we / How to separate semantic and latent codes?

how can we get help over Easter holidays if something does not work

2026-03-26 10:33:06 UTC

is it sufficient to just have a theme of positive, negative and in the middle?

should you code anything that mentions what a specific code is about, or just when participants explicitly mention it in relation to themselves?

2026-03-26 10:33:59 UTC

e.g. if the code is using AI as a 'constant buddy', and a participant mentions how others use it for that, should that be coded there? or would it only be when someone says e.g. 'I use genAI as a constant buddy'

is there a moodle forum?

2026-03-26 10:39:33 UTC

after inital coding how do u split existing codes into smaller ones

2026-03-26 10:39:36 UTC

How many inital codes roughly

2026-03-26 10:39:53 UTC

what was the exact question asked in the survey - to include in methods section of lab report?

2026-03-26 10:41:29 UTC

how do you select these 40 ppts?

2026-03-26 10:43:05 UTC

randomly or the first 40?

how do we separate overlapping codes?

2026-03-26 11:24:38 UTC

if mixed codes are a theme? should there be codes for that or should we just put their general statement e.g. i have mixed feelings for AI and then code their positive and negative thoughts under 'positive' and 'negative

2026-03-26 11:26:05 UTC

do we have access to the experiment link?

2026-03-26 11:27:29 UTC

Can you please provide demographic details?
