This paper offers a methodological, by using Nvivo software, proposal for the organization, development and analysis of discussion group. Our choice is based on existing theories and on our own experience, gained by the use of this technique in several researches. We start with an initial review of the stage of the question concerning the use of CAQDAS in the research, to deepen the methodological supports of discussion group and the principles of the Grounded Theory. The main development stars from de global model proposal in order to enter the analysis of each of the phases proposed: induction, organization, deduction and theory generation. To illustrate each of them, their presence is exemplified in a research about the learning of elderly people at the university.
