Coded “Raw” Data: Here, insert LEGIBLE images or screenshots that show the coding you
have done to your raw data. In other words, show me which segments of your data you have
coded, what colors and symbols you used to code your data, the words you used to code, and so
on.
I’m attaching another document with my coded screenshots of the facebook group because I had
them saved in a separate document and im not sure how to combine the documents !
Reflection: Briefly answer the following questions. (Your responses should be 1-3 sentences per
question.)
1. What patterns do you notice in your data? What words, phrases, or ideas seem to repeat?
a. Some patterns I noticed in my data were the increase of visual content after the
termination of the program. Additionally, after termination I saw repetition of
phrases associated with people trying to sell, donate, or giveaway food and other
items they didn’t want to bring home with them. Prior to the program the main
topics seemed to be COVID numbers information and questions about the park
closure.
2. Which of the codes in your “data coding key” seem to best explain your data? Why?
a. I believe that the code that best explains my data is the content prior to and the
content after the termination. It helps me see what people were actually talking
about before and after. It also helps me see how many posts occurred per day
before and after the termination. Since I’m investigating the change of content,
this is most helpful to me.
3. How do your codes relate to your research question?
a. The codes are related to my research question because I am investigating the way
the content changed from before to after the termination of the Disney College
Program. These codes help me see how topics and frequency of posts changed.
4. What conclusions can you draw from the patterns you identified?
a. There were significantly more posts per day after the termination so the Facebook
group became a more useful resource after the start of the “crisis” of going home
started by the pandemic. Additionally, after the cancellation of the program, the
topics became centered around the moving out and termination process (what we
had to return, how to get rid of items, etc.)
5. What did you learn by engaging in this coding process?
a. The coding process helped me by providing an organized way to identify patterns
within my primary resources of my genre. It is a helpful resource I will definitely
return to when researching in this way again!
