Dear Dina, Qualitative research is a very broad term, but if you're planning some kind of introductory/overview course, I'd recommend checking out the following books: 1. Qualitative Research: A Guide to Design and Implementation by Sharan B. Merriam 2. Qualitative Data Analysis: A Methods Sourcebook by Matthew B. Miles 3. Visual Methodologies: An Introduction to Researching with Visual Materials by Gillian Rose (which focuses only on visual materials, but it's a great book for anyone interested in expanding their knowledge and analytical skills in that domain). In terms of software, I have used Atlas.ti for qualitative text analysis and can recommend it as well. There's a free version you can download from their website, they also have a short guidebook on how to use the software's key functions and features. The free version of Atlas is rather limited, but it should give you a basic insight into how the software works. Hope this is helpful, and good luck with the workshop!

Dear Dina,
NVivo is very good! I learned about it in a qualitative methods workshop and it's one of my favorite software packages. I think there are free trials available.
