Abstract
Recently, in the field of teaching English as a Second or Foreign Language, some researchers have used qualitative inquiry (QI) as the main tool of investigation. Although QI is still in its infancy, it has attracted researchers because of its potential to assit in their diverse research needs. Other researchers have addressed the strong need to integrate qualitative and quantitative analysis in a single study or as a continuum. However, there is still a paucity of literature which addresses the practical issues of how to do this with the aid of the Computer Aided Qualitative Data Analysis System (CAQDAS). Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to report how Nvivo 2 has made the QI process feasible and has also made the integration of quantitative and qualitative data analysis possible. In the end, the researcher postulates that, by adopting CAQDAS, one may overcome the intrinsic limitations of QI, which has been criticized for its lack of reliability and validity in terms of data handling procedures and for the generalization of the research findings. In addition to this, CAQDAS, especially Nvivo 2, may enhance the quality of data analysis in an in-depth and systematic manner. Nvivo 2’s unique features will be demonstrated along with contexts for using it from relevant empirical studies in teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL).
