I am interested to hear more about how you will use interviews as the basis for digital stories...and the nature of the consent agreement from participants that will enable you to do so.

I've created a thread about research design and the E-Interview Research Framework, so I hope you will tell us more!

Welcome David, I hope the seminar will be useful. As we'll be discussing, selection of tools is one part of the process.... I look forward to hearing how the E-Interview Framework helps you to think through the other choices necessary to make your study a success!

The E-interview Research Framework is round, not because you want to go around in circles, but because you do want to see the inter-relationships between various design decisions. Nowhere is this more true than in the alignment of data collection methods-- your online interviews and observations-- with the purpose of the study.

I am attaching a worksheet you can use, if you are willing to share your research design map with the group. It will be interesting to learn about your research-- whether you share a past, present or future example. Then, as we go through the rest of the seminar, you can check back and see if design elements change, or you have new insights, as you refine your ideas about online interviews and how they fit with the research.

I am looking forward to this real-time event. I'll save some time for Q & A-- but if there is something about the E-Interview Research Framework you want me to make sure to cover, feel free to post it here!
