Far from being a book for researchers only, it offers useful guidance for evaluators who wish to learn more about how new technologies can transform evaluation practices and be used to create robust evaluation workflows, both in times of COVID-19 and beyond, as we engage new contexts and perspectives and continue to reshape our understanding of ‘fieldwork′. -- Kenza Bennani

Conducting and reporting evaluations can be stressful, especially in the context of the global pandemic (Maloney, 2020). With the COVID-19 restrictions, evaluators had a problem in common with researchers and teachers: How to make the most of the digital environment of our clients in gathering data and communicating. The new SAGE book Doing Qualitative Research in a Digital World (Paulus & Lester, 2022) should be a useful resource in adapting our data collection and analyses to the continuing digital context. -- Colin Andrew Sharp
While many methods and specialist guides mention software to assist the researcher in a particular analysis (e.g., Qualtrics for data analysis), Paulus and Lester flip the script and instead focus on the digital innovations that make qualitative research practices approachable, innovative, and expedient for researchers. Each chapter includes vignettes written by researchers across a wide range of academe to demonstrate digital research innovation in practice.... Digital novices and experts alike will find multiple innovations in the book that breathe new life into the traditional way of doing research in management education. -- D.M. Gray
