In this workshop we demonstrate the initial line-by-line process of analysis as you approach your individual transcripts. You will receive a transcript to read before the workshop so you can familiarise yourself with the example we will work through. We will demonstrate the detailed and layered noting process and you’ll have an opportunity to practice this. as we move from initial noting through to Personal Experiential Statements, and we will discuss the process of getting to Personal Experiential Themes. Although there is some flexibility and individuality to how IPA is conducted, we’ve found students really appreciate a guided example. We’ll help you to see how to move beyond description and understand more about what makes a theme. We’ll have time for questions.
