“…Kenney (2009) points out that there are times when participants may forget to make an entry in their diaries, and rather than leave the entry blank, they may try to catch up by filling in their missing entries: this is otherwise known as hoarding. When hoarding occurs, this can lower the validity of the study as participants attempt to recall what they had been thinking, feeling, or doing.…”

User-generated content about brands: Understanding its creators and consumers

This consumer research study investigates the motivations and meanings behind young adults creating and consuming user-generated content (UGC) about brands. Service-dominant logic suggests that resources are operant rather than operand and so used/re-used by consumers, eventually breaking down the provider/consumer dichotomy to see the entire logic as working in an actor-to-actor network. This study establishes these two theoretical advances empirically. For the participants, the key issue within the UGC interactions is that of who to trust i.e. source credibility as the resources were used as part of the ongoing identity project of the young adults participating. The findings support this search being within the frame of persons re-using operant resources as part of their wider lives as persons, rather than merely consumers. In this process, actions creating and consuming UGC also underpin potential for personal transformation as the movie Leaving Pleasantville proposes. Therefore, the study here contributes a person-centric metaphor of the journey that individuals can be understood as participating in as they interact with brands on the Internet for personal formation and even transformation. The study provides insight and a metaphor to explain a key driver of UGC creation in 21st century postmodern life.

“…Secondly, they didn't feel as much stress when it came to talking about their drawing, as they were not talking about themselves and instead were focused on what was drawn. This also means that children tend to lie less with this technique than when only asked to talk [15]. MacDonald and Stafstrom used the drawing-telling technique for particular subjects where it was usually difficult to have children talk about their experiences and perspectives.…”

This paper describes an exploratory study about children's perspective on sustainability in the house through a drawingtelling method. Here, we describe the methodological framework used for interviewing children about issues related to sustainability using the drawing-telling technique as described by Susan Wright [26]. The participants (children from age 9 to 13) were asked to draw two houses and then describe their drawings in terms of sustainable actions and features. The results show how the participants understand sustainability and how they represent it in the context of a house. This pilot study is an initial step to investigate if there are opportunities to develop eco-visualizations (EVs) for children. The goal of this study is to inform the design of eco-visualizations for children based on their understanding of sustainability and their own visualization of their homes.

“…The video data (17 h of recording) were divided into 54 ethnographic chunks (Kenney 2009) which depict ordinary languaging events, such as small talk between a teacher and a child, or children involving a teacher in their dressing-and laying-the-table routines, mealtime and circle time discussions as well as book-talk. For the purposes of this paper, 22 of the 54 ethnographic chunks were identified as languaging events that included scaffolding.…”

Picking up the threads. Languaging in a Swedish mainstream preschool

This paper examines the strategies monolingual teachers use to scaffold meaning and encourage and enhance verbal communication with emergent bilingual children in a Swedish mainstream preschool. The study is based on ethnographic fieldwork in a preschool group in which seven of twelve children spoke Swedish as their second, additional language. The basic assumption in this paper is that knowledge is scaffolded in talk between teachers and children. Several scaffolding strategies are identified such as guessing, qualified guessing, interactive scaffolding and co-construction of meaning. The analysis shows that successful languaging assumes a high level of trust between the children and their teachers and that it is essential that the teachers can identify each child's zone of proximal development. Some educational implications and dilemmas are identified on the basis of the results.
