Seems it has been a while since I last made an entry in my blog. Well, I have been busy with a lot of different stuff; most importantly with my dissertation where I have been working hard with my empirical data. I am using Transana as a transcription and qualitative video analysis tool taking a departure in Interaction Analysis (Jordan and Henderson). Therefore I have been working very hard on actually segmenting the many hours of video-data just to get an overview of what happened and to try to find some patterns in the data. Anyway - this is hard work but also very rewarding!

Further, I have had very fruitful meetings with both my supervisor (Lone Dirckinck-Holmfeld) and co-supervisor (Etienne Wenger), which means I have now located my analytical focus...so far this will be called remix-analysis, which is inspired by John Seely Brown's term Remix Culture developed with Mimi Ito and it will draw on a multi-methodology inspired by IA, Multimodal Discourse Analysis and Nexus analysis as for the analytical part.

Etienne was here in Denmark in relation to a course on "Perspectives on Identity in Learning and Education Research". Together with Anna Sfard, Alison Pullen and Carl Rhodes he was one of the invited speakers. During this event I made some interviews with all of them and so far you can find the interview with Anna Sfard at e-Learning Labs podcast site. When time comes, I will also publish interviews/conversations with the others.

Ohh speaking of digital content - I have just noticed that a talk I did this summer at a local, small conference is now online. I really hate seeing myself on video, so I haven't actually seen it through (and really - my hair is shorter now and I have lost weight). But it is a presentation about Web 2.0 and Learning - so if you're interested it is here. The PPT is probably somewhere to be found in my file space :-)

Now - I'll better get back to my dissertation writing or some of the other things I am currently involved in *sigh*.
