Just a quick note, got my assessment for Assignment 1 from Kath – and very thoroughly pleased with me ‘Distinction’!
I noticed that Kath made a comment regarding the integration between EndNote and NVivo as a time-saving software tool application, she wasn’t quite clear based on what I had written – what the advantages of this approach are and how they help with the literature and data analysis. Yes, I agree now having read in retrospective what Kath would’ve read, I agree – wasn’t that clear. I guess what I was trying to say was that I often feel so incredibly overwhelmed by literary hundreds of journal articles and bits of readings that I have entered into my EndNote database, that in order to make a useful analysis and linkage to my own research and results I needed something that would bring it all together for me nicely – and that’s where NVivo comes in, because I can allocate nodes and create literature/results linkages and see them in one page.
Anyway, the feedback has been invaluable and thoroughly enjoyed the learning and insights I’ve gained in doing this assignment – hindsight, as always, is such a wonderful thing).
