Table 5 Primary Coding Scheme: Coded Responses Ineligible for Primary Codes

From: Learning science with YouTube videos and the impacts of Covid-19

Inductive Code

Description

Examples

Number

IDK – I Don’t Know

Response clearly indicates the participant does not have a clear response to the question.

“I’m not sure”

“i dont know. Better watch Dr. B videos”

7

M – Maybe

Response indicates indecision and more specific coding would require undue inference.

“Maybe. The time lost to AV issues, is a real concern. It can be distracting and take you out of focus on the lecture. I can’t tell you how many minutes of a valuable lecture of lost to bad AV issues. When lecturers embed the videos in their slides, its easier because they can just play it directly from their presentation.”

“Maybe”

2

NR – Non-Responsive

Response does not clearly respond to the question.

“To be completely honest my teacher sent me the link of the video and that’s why i am filling this form to help you people with your research (P.S ALL THE BEST WITH THE RESEARCH)”

“They can but they wont. They always pick some crappy videos that are not so interesting.

But I really wish that some of the phenomenal videos need to be used during teaching (like dr. B < 3 < 3 < 3)”

4

UC – Uncodable

Response is unclear, irrelevant, and/or excessive inference is required to assign a coding pattern to the response.

“I would recommend this to my classmates and teacher but since it’s in english and it’s not our native speaker so it could be lit bit hard to understand.”

“Good.”
