DIGITAL CURATION IN QUALITATIVE ANALYSIS SOFTWARE: ANALYSIS OF THE TRAINING PROCESS OF RESEARCHERS

The interest of researchers in qualitative research approaches in the digital context has raised problems related to management, coding, and data sharing, among other aspects, which can be applied to the use of Qualitative Analysis Software. To seek solutions to this problem, the present study trained researchers for digital curation in Qualitative Analysis Software. The digital content curation model and the Digital Competence Framework for Educators were chosen to support this training. In this context, the objective of the research resides in analyzing the relations established between the phases of the proposed training of re searchers for digital curation in Qualitative Analysis Software. To achieve this goal, we adopted a qualitative approach based on articulating two types of software, webQDA and CHIC. Thus, this article is organized into three sections: introduction, proposal for digital curatorship training in Qualitative Analysis Software and relational analysis of this training. Finally, the final considerations reveal the existence of researchers who report on the restrictions on qualitative research data and the use of software.
