I love the txt spk version - and I'm also interested in what you find out - how does counselling, which relies so much on speech and body language, translate to txt. Being the mother of a teenager, it somehow feels so right as a medium for kids - and I know it's the way mine communicates in preference to speech.<br />I do get the sense you struggled getting away from academese :-) I wonder why we find it so difficult and revert to the obscure too readily. That is not to say that what you've written is inaccessible, but bits are difficult as others have said.<br />Interested to see your comments on your attempt to improve on the first version - maybe we should all try again in a few months.lizithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01822023967751437766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27287415.post-71169894127201383122011-04-14T08:27:00.768+12:002011-04-14T08:27:00.768+12:00The question is 'just what is going on here&#...The question is 'just what is going on here'. More explicitly what makes texting by mobile phone the first thing kids reach for when needing a crisis helpline, and whats the crisis helpline doing in response? How does counselling get reconfigured in this small screen space, how are those involved being contained, constrained or constructed when they engage in amedium that limits each interaction to 160 characters or less. <br /><br />I will think about how i weave this into the summary.

Is this a way to situate teen use of texting? A new form of counseling you have noted? Interested in the use of new forms of communication and the effect it has on teens? A more effective way of reaching at risk teens? It is hard for me to "place" your research.<br /><br />I actually liked your explanations of the partial and decentralized ideas. However, without a "placement" of your research, I'm not sure why it is important that you are looking at these slices of life/communication and stringing them together into a story.

I totally agree Bex, wasnt till i saw your comment I realized that i had not explained the decentred ideas...but then i tried to add a little to make it clearer and found myself talking ontological choreography, so i backed out again thinking i should try to keep my foot out of my mouth.

An excellent starting point.

I could guess at what you mean but I'm not sure it's clear to a non-expert<br /><br />>I think the language in the intro sections is much more non-academic but the latter paragraphs are slightly more academic speak so I wonder if you could perhaps simplifiy. <br /><br />Bex.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27287415.post-23761842899009166662011-04-11T08:58:34.368+12:002011-04-11T08:58:34.368+12:00Ailsa, I think this is quite clear and to the poin...Ailsa, I think this is quite clear and to the point. I especially like how you described ANT without getting bogged down in its own language barriers!<br /><br />Two related questions for you, and I am very interested in your plain-text explanation:<br />1. What is the problem (problem in practice that calls for research). I sense it above, though I am wondering if you can state it a bit more clearly.<br />2. What are your research questions (same thoughts as my Q#1 above). <br /><br />I think these two are quite difficult to clearly articulate, so hoping you can teach me via example here!<br /><br />JeffreyJeffrey Keeferhttp://silenceandvoice.com/noreply@blogger.com
