The Center for Social Science Computation and Research (CSSCR) is an interdepartmental computer center in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Washington. CSSCR provides facilities and consulting support for computing activity related to teaching and research at the University. The UW School of Social Work pays a portion of the support for this service, so MSW students are able to take these workshops as well as receiving consulting services.

Office: Monday to Friday: 8:00am to 12:00pm, 1:00pm to 5:00pm

This course provides a brief introduction to computer software for qualitative data analysis, including a brief comparison of two options, ATLAS.ti and the cloud-based Dedoose. The class will then provide a practical introduction to working in ATLAS.ti, covering basic terminology and functionality of the program. This will include importing documents (text and other media types), coding and annotating documents, and exploring relationships through analysis and query tools. Time permitting, we may also briefly discuss best practices for data management.
