Description
This presentation will describe an exploratory study in which I sought to understand if, and if so, how, college students evaluate digital images. The study used a mixed methods approach which included quantitative analysis of a survey consisting of 10 multiple choice questions and qualitative analysis for the associated open-ended question for each multiple choice question. To recruit students for the survey, a nonprobability, convenience sampling technique was used and 73 responses were collected. Qualitative data was analyzed using a chi-square test of independence to examine the relationship between how frequently students performed certain behaviors and qualitative data was analyzed using an inductive, open coding process.
