This research data workshop is for those interested and/or working with mobile technologies in their research, e.g. smartphones, iPads, augmented reality. It will explore methods of data collection and analysis in mobile technology contexts, focusing on qualitative research approaches to design and analysis. Workshop sessions will be based on research video data examples, and specifically draw on multimodal approaches to analysis. Issues of research design, data collection, transcription, coding, and analysis pertinent to key themes around mobile technology research will be discussed.
