Abstract

In this paper I share ways in which smart phones, digital transcription, and representational tools have impacted my practice of qualitative research since the mid-1990s. I reflect on my own training in research methods as well as my experiences with data collection, analysis and representation, highlighting areas of resistance and acceptance of new technologies. I conclude by making connections with technology adoption models and affordances theory.
