Qualitative Transcription for the 21st Century: combining automated transcription with human interpretation using CAQDAS packages

This session focusses on working effectively with new transcription technologies. And how using CAQDAS packages can transform this process.

The focus is on new analytic possibilities arising from machine transcription wherein working within a CAQDAS environment enables not only radical time saving but also enhancing and deepening the connection with data rather than being distanced from it. By using a CAQDAS package to listen and correct auto-generated transcripts there are opportunities for analysis at the point of correction as well as coding for aspects that are lost in textual translation.

Practical aspects include looking at how transcripts can be generated from recordings of interviews undertaken using MS Teams or Zoom. It will also look at working with existing audio files and using Microsoft Word / Office 365 online auto-transcription.

The session will then demonstrate how these files can be prepared and imported into different CAQDAS packages that support synchronised transcription and source editing (including MaxQDA, ATLAS.ti and NVivo).
