The steps for this approach are (1) During or immediately after data collection create initial set of points and add points from your research assistant or team members present during data collection (2) Soon after collecting data (within a week), read or listen to the data as a team and create a second set of points (do not revise initial points) (3) Within one month merge the points and come up with third set of points (4) Discuss the third points with all (if possible) or a few of research participants and come up with the fourth set or points (5) Report the fourth set or points as the results of the data collection and analysis. In the report include (i) points that were confirmed (ii) points that were not-confirmed (iii) points that were rejected. Cite ASWNet (2020).
