- Evaluation of research methods in speech-communication.
- Class Notes:
- This course concerns the range of qualitative empirical methods employed in the social sciences, emphasizing data collection and analysis related to communication. Research methods covered include ethnographic studies, ethnography of communication, interviews/focus groups, discourse analysis, conversation analysis, content analysis, and grounded theory approaches. This course will equip you with various qualitative theories that allow you to choose the best method to analyze and theorize your data. In other words, this course is designed with both theoretical and practical objectives in mind. You will develop a comprehensive understanding of the landscape of qualitative methods and equip you with sufficient knowledge and skills to further advance your methods of interest on your own terms. We will explore how various forms of qualitative studies provide different theoretical lenses and constitute different views on the social processes of human interaction. The course emphasizes the procedures, modes of reasoning and theorizing, and forms of presentation particular to qualitative analysis and research writing. Ethnographic/participant observational methods (and other qualitative methods) are best learned by conducting an actual piece of research that employs them. Therefore, the primary form of instruction in this class will begin with several weeks of reading and lectures followed by group discussions and reports based on their actual applications of the methods in class activities or personal projects.

- The Internet Revolution in Science & Scholarship
- Class Description:
- Scientist and scholars are in the same business: we generate, evaluate and communicate knowledge, three activities the internet has transformed. In this seminar, we will explore the internet's impact on these changes, always taking into consideration the very different ways the cultures of the sciences and the humanities interpret these terms. We will investigate web sites as different and as useful as the Protein Data Bank and the William Blake Archive. We will explore the internet's impact on peer review and on scholarly and scientific evaluation after publication. We will also grapple with obstacles to Internet science and scholarship: outmoded tenure and promotion policies, the hurdles in the way of open access, restrictive patent and copyright law, and the decidedly mixed impact of Freedom of Information legislation.
