Book Synopsis

A guide that offers a step-by-step process to data-driven qualitative multimodal discourse analysis

Systematically Working with Multimodal Data is a hands-on guide that is theoretically grounded and offers a step-by-step process to clearly show how to do a data-driven qualitative Multimodal Discourse Analysis (MDA). This full-color introductory textbook is filled with helpful definitions, notes, discussion points and tasks. With illustrative research examples from YouTube, an Experimental and a Video Ethnographic Study, the text offers many examples of how to deal with small to large amounts of data, including information on how to transcribe video data multimodally, including online videos, and how to analyze the data.

This textbook contains ample theory, directions for literature, and a teaching guide to help with a clear understanding of how to work with multimodal data.

  • Contains new research data, exceptional illustrations and diagrams
    Trade Review

    “In this volume, the author outlines a well-structured step-by-step guide that aims to help researchers from different fields and at different levels engage with the multimodal analysis of video data in a systematic, reliable way.” – Iperstoria, Issue 15 – Spring/Summer 2020 (423-427)
