| Challenge: | Existing web-based platform for qualitative discourse analysis is limited to text, image, audio, video, and other multimodal data. |
| Approach: | They propose to extend existing web-based platform for digital qualitative discourse analysis with a new extension, Whiteboards, which offers a customizable view of the material and a wide range of actions that enable new ways of interacting with it. |
| Outcome: | The proposed extension facilitates reflection of the research process through sampling maps, creation of actor networks, and refining code taxonomies. |
