This post from 2021 is still relevant, given that today’s researcher analyzes all kinds of text and media found online. SAGE author Trena Paulus joined with Alyssa Wise to write a fascinating book: Looking for Insight, Transformation, and Learning in OnlineTalk. I had a chance to discuss this book with the co-authors, and asked them to share an example of this kind of analysis. You can also view an author interview for Trena Paulus' SAGE book, Qualitative Research in a Digital World.
